In the late 1930s or early 1940s, M. Edwin ("Eddie") Schillay, an accountant by trade, started importing 19th century [[British Victorian]] paintings into the United States. For the next 15 years he would purchase large quantities of Victorian paintings and ship them to the United States where they were sold in bulk.<ref name="Rehs Galleries, New York City - Artist Advocate">{{cite news|title=Rehs Galleries New York City|url=http://www.rehsgalleries.com//images/rehs_galleries_interview_printed_artist_advocate.pdf|accessdate=August 1, 2014|work=[[Artist Advocate]]|issue=Summer 2009|pages=R12-R13}}</ref> His style of purchasing was so grand that he was written up in The [[Bournemouth Times]], Westbourne, England in November 1958 when he purchased 60 paintings from one sale.<ref name="Rehs Galleries, Inc.">[http://www.rehsgalleries.com//images/bournemouth_times_1958_web.pdf 1958 Bournemouth Times]</ref>
