History: The Israel Sack tradition began when Israel Sack set upon a career dealing in American Antiques in 1905 at 85 Charles Street, Boston. As his business prospered, he expanded to 89 Charles Street. When he began, there were only a handful of collectors of Americana and virtually no museum displays. During Israel Sack’s Boston career (1905 - 1933), he was in the forefront of the development of interest in American antique furniture and was known for integrity and judgment. The American sections of the museums at Kansas City, St. Louis, Chicago, Detroit and significant items in the Henry Ford Museum, Winterthur and Colonial Williamsburg stand as monuments to his achievements during that era. In the early 1930´s Israel Sack moved to New York. In 1932, his son Harold joined the firm; Albert followed in 1934, and Robert joined his father and brothers in 1952. Israel Sack died in May of 1959.In 1968, Donald, Albert's son, joined the firm, making the 3rd generation at Israel Sack, Inc., for the better part of 20 years. From 1937 on, Israel Sack, Inc. had been on 57th Street in three locations In 1992, the firm moved to the Crown Building on Fifth Avenue and 57th Street. In July of 2000, Harold Sack passed away at the age of 89. Albert and Robert continued the high standards set by Israel and Harold Sack till they closed the doors January 31, 2002. In 1996, Harold, Albert, and Robert and their father Israel, posthumously, were awarded the seventh Henry Francis DuPont Award. "Throughout most of the 20th Century, Israel Sack and his three sons, - Harold, Albert and Robert - have dedicated themselves to the connoisseurship, preservation and collecting of American furniture." This was the first time such an award had been presented to a dealer.
