Matthew Henson bust; Thomas Blackshear
Very good/excellent condition. I bought this new many years ago but didn't save the box. Displayed it for a few months on a shelf, but was afraid it might get damaged and was too valuable to let that happen. So it has remained wrapped in bubble wrap for many years tucked away in my closet. Based upon award winning paintings by Thomas Blackshear, Matthew Henson is from a series of four historical busts from the Proud Heritage Collection. Limited in production to only 5,000 pieces, this creation was designed by Thomas Blackshear and distributed by Miss Martha's Originals in 1995. Both front and aback are dramatically detailed. Made from a mixture of crushed pecan shells and resin. It is hand-painted. Measures 8 3/4" tall.
"Matthew Henson went to the Pole with Peary because he was a better man than any of us."

Commander Donald B. MacMillan

The discovery of the North Pole is one of the noblest stories in the history of exploration. It is a story of the battle of two invincible Americans against the terrible elements of the Arctic; a battle which lasted eighteen years and left one of the Americans, a steel-willed man of grit, a cripple for life. It is a human story filled with tragic suffering, pathos and humiliation. And it is noble, because these two Americans, who made the last great discovery in the Northern Hemisphere, were a white man and a Negro."
Bradley Robinson, 1947
Henson figures made from 1969 to 2000. The one in the center, by Thomas Blackshear,  is for sale in this auction.
