We fired up the lighting studio up again and brought back our adaptable articulating lamps. These start as a single light and work up to groups 2-5 arms. Each lamp is custom made and you can take a look on our lighting section for options.

Agent Gallery featured in Journal of Antiques and collectibles print issue May 2019 Medical Art: A spectacle on Display. Many great medical articles in this issue—including civil war medical tools.
Dentiscope Surgical Lamp by Pittsburgh Electric Specialties Co.
Very rare Dentiscope surgical lamp by Pittsburgh Electric Specialties Co. This was the first electrified medical lamp to replace gas lamps. Probably only the fancy dental offices in 1915 had them since it cost a half years salary acquire. We're in process of mounting this on a stand. More pictures to follow.
Crash Test Manikin Head
I was out hunting for these and I found a few great pieces. The fella that I got these from said he had a mad dash to get a few final pieces from a factory that produced these manikins. He assured me that what he got was usable and the rest was 'trash'--I dunno I hope he was right. I managed to get a robotic leg (sold it in about 30 minutes) and a head. I am surprised that I still have that. I guess if you knew how hard it is to score a crash test dummy you would probably buy this head.
New Additions
We have steadily added a very nice selection of unique and original cyanotypes that I have not gotten a change to promote them. Eventually it will be its own category due to the amount of these pieces. Currently you can see them all in our 'Wall Pieces' section. Here is just one of my favorites.

Our New Location
This is our old spot that was small and intimate. We are now in a larger space in Logan Square. I bet you haven't been there yet--you should!

TRNK Part I
TRNK came to AGC and this is what happened. This is part I of a larger home tour that will be posted soon. https://www.trnk-nyc.com/trnk-find-moon-print-from-agent-gallery/
Big Star Taco
It was good to go into the Big Star the other day and have my fish taco. If you haven't been to this Chicago taco joint it sure serves up a pretty excellent selection of tacos. I usually hit it up when I am craving a fish taco and my friend JR loves the bourbon list. I was pleasantly surprised to see that they finally put up the Taco sign I sold them a while back--the fella closest to us in the photo found the 'S'. Team work!
