Wallace Nutting was an American hero,
who grew up in poverty without a father. He started his illustrious
career as a Congregational minister, but was forced to retire due to
ill health. Despite these hardships Wallace came to be known as the

antique collector and dealer of American furniture. His collection
of Pilgrim Century furniture was the finest in the country.
