These fanciful gates were made for Pittsburgh industrialist and art collector Benjamin Franklin Jones, Jr. for his home palatial home Fair Acres, in Sewickley Heights, Pennsylvania. The contents of Fair Acres were sold in a series of auctions in 1941 after the death of Mrs. B.F. Jones, Jr., and it is possible that at this point the gates entered the collection of Mara Félix (d. 2002), an icon of Mexican cinema in the 1940's.
