They met on John Carradine's Boat when Arth...ur was a young Army Air Corp. Cadet while sailing to Catalina Island. The beginning of a successful 56 Years of Marriage began in 1942.

He was also a flight instructor, during WWII, based in Roswell New Mexico.

Fred Black helped to build the collections at Greenfield Village for Mr. Ford and Arthur Jefferson acquired much of Fred Black's Estate including his Rare Book Collection among other fine antiques and highly collectible items.

Her Awards with the Dearborn Community Arts Council and the DIA are know widely by many. Both Arthur and Rosemary had a passion for the Arts and Antiquities which led them on a lifelong journey or travel, adventure and discovery. They could not have built so many different collections without the large number of dear friends and business people they met and treated like family over several decades.
We hope you appreciate their passion and this fine piece from their estate.
