I believe this property was owned by the Valentine family. My grandfather George Speedling (born 1884) was the son of Alice Valentine. So I think the Speedling mentioned here is likely one of his siblings.
I hope this finds you well. My reason for contacting you is the following: In November 2024 I will publish a scientific monograph entitled »Dartington Hall 1925–1939. Drehscheibe der Kulturen für eine friedliche Welt« with the publisher ATHENA/wbv. Germany.
The publication deals with historical contexts of "Dartington Hall" in England and its founders Dorothy Whitney Straight Elmhirst and Leonard Elmhirst.
So I would like to ask your permission to reproduce the Foto of "Gertrude Vanderbilt Whithney private Studio" from ca. 1930 in the explained scientific context of the publication:
Print run: 500 copies
Ebook: max. 250 downloads
Sales price: approx. 49,90 Euro
Reproduction: greyscale image
As I only have a very small budget for this project, I would be very grateful for a free authorisation or a broad concession.
Of course I will send you a digital specimen copy after publication.
As time is very short for the planned publication date, I would be very pleased to receive a prompt reply.
If you have any further questions, please contact me.
I look forward to hearing from you.
For several years in the early 2000s I served as a docent for this house. That was the time when we were open for tours every weekend I lived in Roslyn at the time. For many years, the little history that I wrote from research I did on the house was used at the walking tours. It is a house with a fascinating history, and I’m thrilled to hear that it will continue to educate visitors for a long time

The colorful lion head swags with bunches of fruits and leaves that flank the house's main entrance were made by the Moravian Pottery and Tile Works in Doylestown, PA, in 1916. The Library fireplace was also made by the Moravian Pottery and Tile Works at the same time.
This news article announces the replacement of Jolly Fisherman with Pietro's, an Italian restaurant in Roslyn. The post provides context about the change and what patrons can expect from the new establishment. It's informative for local residents and food enthusiasts keeping up with the culinary scene in the area.
