We are pleased to present a Shenango China bouillon soup cup (two-handled) and saucer with crossed burgees of the Corinthian Yacht Club of Philadelphia and Cummins Catherwood. From his 1990 obituary in the NYT: "Cummins Catherwood, a former stockbroker, insurance and newspaper executive, died Feb. 3 at his winter home in Cuernavaca, Mexico. He was 80 years old and also had residences in Gladwyn, Pa., and Saratoga Springs, N.Y.


Mr. Catherwood was a limited partner in Hallowell, Sulzberger, Jenks & Kirkland, a Philadelphia stockbrokerage, and a partner in the insurance firm of Roberts, Fleitas & Catherwood. He was a former co-owner of The Philadelphia Evening Public Ledger, now defunct." I found his burgee in the 1937 Lloyd's Register of American Yachts. The saucer is 5.75" diameter, the cup sits 2.125" tall. Good condition, expected general light wear including some small losses to the decoration. Please see pics.
