On:G Ghosts

1t dawned on me the other night
that l was being Systematically and
ruthlessly haunted by a ghost. This
revelation came to me after ! had
spent a feverish hour tracking down
a pair of stockings only to have them
pop up in my husband s desk drawer!
The more | think of it. the more
I'm convinced that this ghost OF
mine has been on the job for some
time. He haunts me on crowded
buses, unfolding my newspaper 50
that it looks like a sail in a stiff gale
and knocks the hat off the man next
to me. He is the culprit who trips me
when I'm about to make the grand
entrance" into a producers Office.
He is, I'm sure, a rather unpleas-
ant hoyden of a ghost and not at all
like the lovable. witty creature who
haunts Mrs. Muir in tonight's play.
l sincerely hope that my ghost
listens in-and learns a much-needed
lesson in good ghosting.

Meyers checks tiny coffee pot
A craftsman in silver, he makes
midget replicas of masterpieces
llTEr me think it over" said the silversmith.
IL 1t was not an easy thing he had been
asked to do. A collector of miniature antiques
wanted him to make tiny copy of one of the
candelabras of the Palace of Versailles. Bill Meyers
had been siversmithing for 20 years but he had
never tried anything like that. Yet it was tanta-
zing challenge to his skill.
He had new set Of tools made specially for
the work. and with them spent month fashion,
ing three ounces of silver into little candeabra.
1t had 16 fragile branches, each with an elaborate
cluster of minute ornaments 1t was delicate, pre-
else and fine. The collector pronounced it flaw
less reproduction, and gentle Bill Meyers was
launched in new field of silversmithing.
OF course, miniatur not new. Ancient
silversmiths made their samples Sin little
because they had to travel far to display their
work to patrons. Miniatures were easier to trans
port and not so heavy loss if stolen. They were
also proof of fine craftsmanship.
But Bill Meyers was surprised to discover the
number of Americans whose hobby was the COL
ecting of items not bigger and better, but smaller
and finer. Many orders come from Hollywood,
where Ginger Rogers, Franchot Tone. Paul Mum
and Robert Montgomery are avid collectors.
His Models are Handmade
MEYERS models are pure" miniatures au-
thentic, painstaking, handmade replicas of famous
antiques or museum pieces.
When he is copying piece, he first sketches
the original. He reduces the measurements to the
proper scale and then makes detailed drawings.
Actual construction often takes week or more.
BY now he has made about 500 miniatures,
among them Jonathan Swift gravy boat, Paul
Revere tea set hexagonal Queen Anne salt and
pepper shakers, a tinkling town-criers bell with
ebony handle, and hot water kettle with spirit
lamp that takes its fuel drop by drop from needle
None of Meyers early pieces were stamped
with his hallmark, tiny ''m,'' and no one
knew who made them. San Francisco shop
noted for its 06jets DAT. assumed they were the
work of English smiths and sent buyer abroad
After two-year search in Europe and the S., the
skillful artisan was found in his unpretentous New
Jersey workshop from which he had never stirred
His tiny masterpieces cost from So to $780,
A thousand dollars worth could be held in the
palm of your hand. But price no deterrent to the
real collector. They seem to be bitten by very
special bug" says Bill Meyers. They would
rather collect than eat"
