Provenance
The Collection of Peter F. Frazier and M. Prudence Fleck
Peter F. Frazier and M. Prudence Fleck began collecting Civil War objects in the 1950s. They amassed
a collection of wonderful arms, accoutrements, and uniforms, and enjoyed sharing it with others in the
community. Through numerous trips to battlefields and shops, they would acquire new pieces and add
them to their private museum, always willing to let people they met come over and see a unique piece
of American history.
Peter was a veteran of the Canadian Army in WWII, and the American Army through Korea and Vietnam.
He retired as a Sgt. Major, and passed away in 1982. Prudence joined the WAVES in 1944 and after the
war the U.S. Navy, serving in WWII, Korea, and Vietnam. She retired in 1980 after thirty-three years of
service with the rank of Command Master Chief, quite an achievement for a woman during that time.
I met Prudence at her house one day, and we walked around the museum looking at objects, listening
to her stories of how they were found or purchased. She talked about numerous trips to the battlefields
of the Civil War with Peter, and how much fun they had. After Peter passed away, Prudence still carried
the torch and took in objects. She had little pieces of paper, hanging tags, with how she had found
something, or memories of Peter attached.
Prudence is quite the character, and as she said goodbye to the museum and walked up the stairs
to leave, I could hear her singing a familiar tune: “Anchors Aweigh!” Prudence, we thank you for your
many years of service to our country.

events will be held in conjunction with the June 15th auction of the Andrews Shaker Collection. Please join us!
About The Andrews Shaker Collection
In 1923, Edward and Faith Andrews stopped at a Shaker community to buy a loaf of bread, a simple encounter which led to a lifelong involvement with the Shakers. On June 15th, Skinner will offer the last portion of the original Andrews Collection not residing in a major institution. The auction will present more than 100 lots including furniture, metalware, boxes, and ephemera—all featuring the Shakers’ characteristically simple, yet ingenious design. The event offers enthusiasts of Shaker the rare opportunity to purchase furniture and objects from this legendary collection.
