Book excerpt: Elizabeth Parke Firestone was the daughter-in-law of Harvey Samuel Firestone Sr., the founder of Firestone Tire and Rubber Company, and the wife of Harvey Samuel Firestone Jr., chairman and president of the rubber company after World War II. She was a patron of the arts and amassed collections of paintings and drawings, porcelain, eighteenth-century silver, furniture, and couture clothing. As the wife of a prominent businessman in Akron, Ohio, Elizabeth took her role very seriously. She believed in representing her husband, family, and the Firestone Tire and Rubber Company with dignity and grace. Her collection of couture clothing began because she felt it was her duty to look her best at all times. She collected paintings and drawings, porcelain, silver, and furniture to decorate their homes, mainly Twin Oaks in Akron, Ohio, and Ocean Lawn in Newport, Rhode Island. Her personal appearance and her homes were elegant and highly admired by others. Elizabeth cared for all of her collections with the same dedication and attention to detail. She researched each purchase carefully. Her collections, including her couture clothing, were catalogued and carefully maintained. The respect she demonstrated for her clothing collection exemplified her belief that clothing is a decorative art. Towards the end of her life, Elizabeth disposed of all of her collections in a determined and methodical manner. The Detroit Institute of Art and the Boston Museum of Fine Art received valuable collections of eighteenth-century silver. She donated clothing to historical societies, universities, and museums, including the Metropolitan Museum of Art. Elizabeth's collections of decorative art, including couture clothing, will be enjoyed and studied by students, experts, and the public for many years to come.
