A Teenager Finds a $240,000 Painting on a Loading Dock: The Holloway Deaccession

A $240,000 Harold Ness canvas was found leaning on a museum loading dock at 6:06 AM by a fourteen-year-old paperboy, and the piece on the gallery wall had been a convincing copy for three years. How did a hairline crack in a gilt slip and a routine inventory note become the missing clues that exposed a deaccession scheme?
In this episode, we trace the sequence of events from the first discovery through the personnel, transactions, and paperwork that allowed two identical canvases to circulate undetected, and ask how a director’s financial transfers, a craftsman’s reproduction, and an archivist’s single-line note intersected to create the scandal.
Person: Terry Evans
Date: February 2019
Location: Holloway Museum loading dock
Person: Conrad Beal
Value: $240,000
- The painting was discovered at 6:06 AM by fourteen-year-old Terry Evans during his paper route.
- Non-emergency police arrived at 6:31 AM and within the hour a museum staffer confirmed the painting was the original Harold Ness.

- The canvas was appraised at $240,000 in 2014 and arrived at Holloway as a gift in 1978.
- Director Conrad Beal made unauthorized transfers from restricted gift funds totaling approximately $380,000 by 2014.
