260 BOB KUHN (1920-2007) Cat on the Qui Vive, 1996 acrylic on masonite 20 x 36 inches signed lower right: kuhn verso: signed and dated Born in Buffalo, New York, Bob Kuhn received his artistic training at the Pratt Institute in Brooklyn, where he studied design, anatomy, and life-drawing. For the next thirty years, Kuhn made his living as one of the most popular wildlife illustrators in America, before turning to easel painting full time in 1970. Kuhn traveled around the world to obtain inspiration, with many of his wildlife expeditions lasting up to eight weeks. He made countless trips to Africa, six trips to Alaska, and numerous journeys into Canada and the American West. Originally inspired by African wildlife, Kuhn turned to the mammals of North America in later years. Kuhn worked primarily in acrylic and strove to capture the particular movements and personalities of the wild animals he painted. A member of the Society of Animal Artists in New York, Kuhn had paintings in many prestigious permanent collections including, The John L. Wehle Gallery of Sporting Art at the Genesee Country Museum in Mumford, NY, The National Museum of Wildlife Art in Jackson Hole, WY, and The National Cowboy Hall of Fame in Oklahoma City, OK. In discussing his affinity for certain subjects, Kuhn expressed particular fondness for big cats, and even acknowledged that they “comprise quite a large proportion of my subject matter.” He elaborated on this interest, writing “The general behavior of cats is quite uniform. Whether one is observing a house cat or a leopard, they are supple, loose jointed, very quick, though not necessarily swift (with notable exception of the cheetah) very strong, but lacking in stamina. They are a painter’s dream, both because of their elegant appearance and the great range of their expressions and attitudes (gestures).” Kuhn undoubtedly conveys this elegance in Cat on the Qui Vive. The cougar lounges on the rock, at once relaxed and alert—scanning the horizon for any sign of prey. PROVENANCE: The Artist Private Collection, Jackson, WY $150,000 – $250,000

“My painting Great Plains Warrior is a salute to the Great Plains Nation of the Kiowa Indians. The Kiowa name meant ‘principle people’, or true people. They were mobile, and migrated seasonally, following the buffalo as their primary food source. They were a warring people, often clashing with neighboring tribes. The long flowing war bonnet made of eagle feathers, flannel, horsehair, glass beads, and ermine—symbolized power, strength, and the pride of a nation devoted to the survival of its people.” —Bruce Cheever

296 MARTIN GRELLE (1954- ) Cheyenne Remnants oil on canvas 44 x 60 inches signed lower right: (cross) MARTiN GRELLE © *99 CA verso: titled, signed, dated Born in Clifton, Texas, in 1954 Martin Grelle lives on a small ranch a few miles from town he was raised in. Grelle expressed an early interest in art and began painting and drawing at a young age. Largely self-taught, he lived in close proximity to Cowboy Artists of America members James Boren and Melvin Warren. Seeing his innate talent, Boren mentored Grelle and upon graduating from high school, Grelle had his first one-man show at a local gallery in 1973. The first of over thirty one-man shows, Grelle has continued to achieve national acclaim as an award-winning western artist. Grelle became a member of the Cowboy Artists of America in 1995, fulfilling a dream begun in the early 70’s when he first met Boren and Warren. That same year he was invited to participate in the first Prix de West Invitational at the National Cowboy and Western Heritage Museum in Oklahoma City. Since that time he has won the Prix de West Purchase Award, twice (one of only seven artists to do so), the Nona Jean Hulsey Rumsey Buyers’ Choice Award, twice, the CA People’s Choice Award in 2002, the CA Ray Swanson Award in 2008, the CA Buyers’ Choice Award in 2011, 2012, 2014, and 2018, the Silver Award for Water Solubles in 2012 and 2014, and the Silver Award for Oil Painting in 2017. The Briscoe Museum awarded Grelle the Legacy Award in 2012, for his impact on western art. He was also honored with a retrospective showing of his work, along with fellow CA artist, Herb Mignery, for the Gilcrease Museum’s Rendezvous Show 2013. A masterwork from this exceptional contemporary artist, Cheyenne Remnants clearly speaks to Grelle’s skill as a painter as well as his love of the West. In the tradition of the historical painters and western illustrators who came before him, this piece highlights Grelle’s ability to tell a story through the immaculate detail and large scale of the work.

This one is based on a photo-op setup by Jack Hines and his wife, Jessica Zemsky, both painters, who put together workshops in or near Big Timber, Montana. They engaged a young animal handler and one of his charges, a fine adult cougar, to give us several hours of their time, allowing the cat to do a lot of catlike things. Much film was burned that day. I have produced several paintings based on that session, and I’ll most likely do more. I have no vanity at all concerning my need to use good source material. I can fake it if I have to, but I’m much happier with solid reference sources.

309 ROBERT BATEMAN (1930- ) Elk and Aspen acrylic on canvas 48 x 60 inches signed lower right: Robert Bateman 2004© An influential painter and naturalist, Robert Bateman was born in Toronto, Canada, in 1930. Interested in both art and wildlife from an early age, Bateman knew by twelve that both would serve to be his life’s passions. As a teenager Bateman became a Junior Naturalist at the Royal Ontario Museum, where he gained vital exposure to ornithology, field study, and specimen drawing. At eighteen Bateman won a Junior League scholarship for art tuition, which allowed him study with Gordon Payne at the Arts and Letters Club for two years. Bateman attended the University of Toronto and received an honors degree in geography in 1954. While in school, he took night classes in art from Carl Schaefer, whom he studied under for five years. Throughout this period Bateman participated in numerous geological surveys in Newfoundland and Canada’s Arctic, where he continued to sketch wildlife and collect specimens. Having already traveled across the United States and much of Western Europe, Bateman embarked on a fourteen month expedition around the world in 1957. With one friend and a Land Rover, he journeyed across equatorial Africa, northern India, through the Himalayas into Myanmar, Thailand, and India before culminating in Australia. In 1963 Bateman moved to Nigeria to teach for two years, where he entered a Nairobi art competition. Until this point Bateman’s love of art and wildlife had remained separate, but the paintings of African animals that he submitted combined his two passions cohesively for the first time. Upon returning to Canada, Bateman continued painting and quickly gained a following in the art world. In 1976 Bateman stopped teaching to devote all of his time to painting, and after his first solo exhibition sold out opening night, it proved a wise career move. In Elk and Aspen, Bateman’s skill as a painter and his decades of experience as a naturalist combine to create an authentic and stirring portrait of this bull elk emerging from the mist.

349 THOMAS HART BENTON (1889-1975) Cowboys at Corral, 1931 graphite, watercolor, and gouache on paper 20 ⅛ x 29 ¼ inches signed lower right: Benton 31 Born in Neosho, Missouri, in 1889 Thomas Hart Benton went on to become one of the most important American artists of the early twentieth century. Politics ran in Benton’s blood, his grandfather served as a United States Senator and his father was elected to the United States House of Representatives. Naturally, his father hoped Benton would pursue a career in law as an entree to the political world. Benton had other ideas, and in 1907 he headed to Chicago to study at the Art Institute of Chicago. The following year, he travelled to Paris to continue his studies at the Académie Julian. After several years in France, Benton returned to the States enamored with Modernism. Benton sought work in New York City, struggling to find an audience for his Modernist style, he worked as a commercial artist, set designer, and the like. With the advent of WWI, Benton enlisted in the Navy where he served as an architectural draftsman. This proved to be a pivotal time in Benton’s career, lending him the realism and American subject matter that would later define his career. In the decade that followed the war, Benton threw himself into largescale mural projects, focusing on themes of American history and daily life. He quickly emerged as a leader of the American Regionalist movement. In 1930 Benton travelled West in search of inspiration. It was on this trip that he snuck behind the scenes at the Fourth of July Rodeo in Saratoga, Wyoming—presenting himself as a reporter for the Denver Post. Benton spent several days sketching the cowboys, horses, and rodeo life, leaving before his ruse was uncovered. Uncommon in his oeuvre, the majority of Benton’s scant western works, like Cowboys at Corral, come from 1930 and 1931, likely inspired by this trip to Wyoming. He also used these cowboy studies as inspiration for a portion of his 1932 murals for the library of the Whitney Museum of American Art. While the Great Depression saw many artists seek support from the Works Progress Administration, Benton had achieved enough acclaim to support himself through commissions—never working for the WPA.

354 JOHN CLYMER (1907-1989) Snow Line, 1977 oil on canvas 24 x 36 inches signed lower right: John Clymer ©1977 verso: titled and signed Widely recognized for recording western history and wildlife in his art, John Ford Clymer was born in Ellensburg, Washington in 1907. Clymer developed an interest in art from a very early age. Following high school, he moved to Vancouver, British Columbia, where he worked as an illustrator and attended art school. In 1930, Clymer attended the Wilmington Academy in Delaware, where he encountered and found inspiration from the illustrator and western artist, N.C. Wyeth. In 1932, Clymer married his childhood sweetheart Doris and moved to Westport, Connecticut to join the artist gathering there. During World War II, Clymer and illustrator Tom Lovell joined the Marines. Stationed in Washington State, they spent their time painting war illustrations. After the war Clymer decided to create historical paintings. In order to accurately depict the West in his work, Clymer researched and traveled throughout the region. In 1966, Clymer and his wife settled down in the quiet western town of Jackson, Wyoming, to better pursue Clymer’s interest in painting local western people and regional wildlife. Clymer received many honors, including the National Academy of Western Art’s Prix de West Award and the National Museum of Wildlife Art’s Rungius Medal. His hometown of Ellensburg, Washington established the Clymer Museum. Clymer’s family generously donated the contents of his studio to the National Museum of Wildlife Art in Jackson Hole, Wyoming. In Snow Line Clymer combines his skill for landscapes with his finesse for wildlife subjects. The painting depicts the changing of the seasons, the point at which spring and winter meet. With spring’s thaw, the bighorn return to the high country. Here Clymer depicts them at that moment of transition, evoked further through the changing landscape. The snowmelt creates a stream of lush verdant life, cutting through the center of the composition, while winter clings on—inevitably giving way to the coming warmth as the bighorn make their seasonal migration.

364 CARL RUNGIUS (1869-1959) Alaskan Wilderness oil on canvas 40 ¼ x 50 ¼ inches signed lower right: C. Rungius Despite being one of the most famous painters of North American wildlife, Carl Rungius was born in Rixdorf near Berlin, Germany, in 1869. Rungius developed an early interest in studying and hunting wild animals, due in large part to the influence of his father and grandfather, both amateur naturalists and taxidermists. At a young age Rungius also showed a talent for drawing, and pursued his formal artistic training in Berlin at the Berlin Art School, the Academy of Fine Arts, and the School of Applied Arts. Following his education, Rungius began his career as a romantic painter in Germany. As fortune would have it, in 1894 Rungius’s uncle invited him to travel to Maine for a hunting trip. It was then that Rungius’s passion for hunting big game and painting truly came together, as he found his inspiration for both in the wildlife of North America. Enchanted, Rungius spent a summer hunting in Wyoming before moving permanently to New York in 1897. Rungius’s studio in New York allowed him easy access to the art scene of New York City as well as the wilderness of the Northeast and the Canadian Rockies. In 1904 Rungius traveled the Yukon with Charles Sheldon, and in 1910 he traveled to Banff, Alberta for the first time. In Banff Rungius found the ideal location for painting and hunting, particularly with the prevalence of the bighorn sheep in the region. Rungius built a studio there in 1921, nicknamed ‘The Paintbox,” and visited annually until his death in 1959. Exhibited in 1924 at the National Academy of Design, Alaskan Wilderness is a prime example of Rungius’ more mature and impressionistic style, typical of his paintings from this period. Drawn to the United States originally by his interest in moose, Rungius continued to favor them as subjects throughout his artistic career. The style, scale, and subject matter of this piece serve to cement it as one of the masterworks of his career.

Selections from the Collection of
ROBERT M. AND ANNE BROCKINTON LEE — 1 —
The Jackson Hole Art Auction is honored to offer the following western and wildlife art from the collection of Anne Brockinton Lee and Robert Morton Lee, renowned automobile and arms collector, explorer and conservationist. Mr. Lee passed away in January 2016 in Reno, Nevada. A “Renaissance Man” who presented a multi-faceted talent to the world, Bob Lee turned his hand to many fields and rarely failed. He was a premier fly-tier; successful builder-developer; excellent rifle shot and fly-fisherman; safari outfitter and professional hunter in Africa; designer and manufacturer of a multitude of outdoor equipment, fine luggage and clothing; a patron of the arts; a merchandiser and marketing wiz; an author of many books; an explorer and natural scientist with museum accreditation; a classic car and gun collector nonpareil. His inquisitive nature, keen intelligence, and sense of fearless daring carried him ever further, pushing back horizons and challenging the new or unthinkable. Mr. Lee was one of the first Americans to have a hunting concession in Africa (Lee Expeditions, Ltd.) and the first professional hunter to open Portuguese Angola to foreign hunters. He was a conservationist long before it became fashionable. While living in Angola in the early 1960s, he was instrumental in obtaining government protection for the lion, cheetah, black rhino, and their habitats. Further, Bob designed the first ecologically sound wildlife management program in Africa with the then Portuguese Provincial Government (Angola) to counteract the decimation of the big-game population by over-hunting and poaching. The result: more game was there when he left than when he arrived! This was a cause championed by Bob Lee around the world throughout his adult life. To quote from his first book, Safari Today (1960): “It is the hunter who loves the game, for the game is his life and sport, and since the Middle Ages and before, it has been the hunter who has saved the game and fought those who would destroy it whenever and wherever he could.” In 1965, with the outbreak of the Angolan civil war, Bob returned to his home in New York and founded Hunting World®, a luxury luggage, leather goods, outdoor clothing, and sporting specialties company. The firm’s products were designed to his exacting specifications and mercilessly field-tested. Among numerous innovations, Bob developed a nearly indestructible lightweight material he called “Battue®”. Bob Lee was a Fellow of Exploration in The Explorers Club, a member of the Boone & Crockett Club (founded in 1887 by Theodore Roosevelt), Shikar-Safari Club International, a Life Member of Safari Club International and the National Rifle ...continued on p. 19 — 2 —

Lee was successful in convincing the Xinjiang (Shin-jiang) Provincial government to institute protection for many of its wonderful species and his reports were responsible for the creation of the Tashgorgan Wildlife Reserve in the Pamirs.

It may be one of the most written about places in Arabia, but at the same time it is one of the least visited. The centuries-old city is on the floor of the Wadi, its tall mud-brick buildings crowding together, skyscraper fashion, some of them sixteen or more stories high…I realized as I looked at this place – an absolutely unique collection of mud-brick skyscrapers jostling together and each as old as time – that I had found the ultimate in visual excitement. Here, amongst friendly people, I felt I had stepped back into centuries past. There was nothing to spoil this illusion (except Coca-Cola) – no extraneous noises such as jet planes and motor bikes.

continued from p. 2 Association, a member of the Visiting Committee of the Arms and Armor Department at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, a research associate in Mammalogy, Museum of Natural History, at the University of Kansas, and an Affiliate Professor of Management at The University of Montana, where he lectured graduate students about the problems involved in saving our ancient forests in the Pacific Northwest, clear-cutting, and lack of regrowth in the Rocky Mountain states and the responsibilities of business and industry with respect to the environment. In 1988, he created The Robert M. Lee Endowment for graduate studies in wildlife management at The University of Montana. This gift was the largest single donation ever received and resulted in three scientific expeditions to the Qinghai (Ching-Hy) Province of China, on the Tibetan Plateau, to study increased population management for wild yak and musk deer. Lee also created a scholarship for Native Americans at the College of Forestry and Conservation at UM. In 1991, he endowed the Robert M. Lee Gallery of American Arms at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City. In 1999, Bob was presented with the C.J. McElroy Award from SCI for his contributions to hunting and conservation. The Robert M. Lee Foundation fervently supports various conservation organizations and other efforts to control subdivided development of pristine areas. Bob and Anne have also supported the World Wildlife Fund and Sierra Club as well as the Nevada Museum of Art in Reno, the Preservation Society of Charleston, and many animal rescue societies. Bob was recognized as the premier collector of antique Colts, Winchesters, European ams and armor and modern sporting arms, and selections of these themes are featured in his book series, The Art of the Gun (2002-2003) and Magnificent Colts (2011). The special exhibition “A Celebration of Robert M. Lee” was held at Sotheby’s New York in June and July, 2013.

388 CLARK HULINGS (1922-2011) Puerto Vallarta, 1976 oil on canvas 24 x 48 inches signed lower left: Hulings © 1976 While he was born in Florida in 1922, Clark Hulings spent formative early childhood years in Spain, where he fell in love with a culture that undeniably serves as a basis for the American cowboy. Hulings found something similar in Mexico, and both countries inspired Hulings throughout his career—yearning for the simplicity of the way things once were. Hulings described his painting Puerto Vallarta, writing “Puerto Vallarta was, until recently, a quiet fishing village connected to the rest of Mexico by a difficult road through the jungle. Now it has jet runways, luxury hotels and ‘muchos turistas.’ There is frantic building going on up in the steep hills overlooking the town and these little donkeys ply constantly back and forth with their burdens of rocks and sand from the beach…I can’t help but regret the destruction of the beautiful simplicity of their little town.” In this painting Hulings alludes to the changes occurring in Puerto Vallarta, the little donkey plodding along in the wake of development, while also giving the viewer a glimpse into the serenity of the Puerto Vallarta that once was. After three years in Spain, Hulings’ father moved the family to New Jersey, where Hulings frequented the Metropolitan Museum of Art whenever possible, drawn to the work of George Innes, John Singer Sargent, and Pierre-Auguste Renoir. Inspired by the masters, Hulings took to copying their work on his own, convincing his father to enlist the tutelage of Sigismund Ivanowski. Following years of training with Ivanowski, Hulings continued his formal art education at the Art Students League in New York. Early in his career Hulings worked as a portrait painter and freelance illustrator, before devoting himself fully to easel painting in the 1960’s. By 1965 Hulings began exhibiting at the Grand Central Galleries, and in 1973 he received the Prix de West award at the National Academy of Western Art. The awards and acclaim continued throughout his long career. Hulings moved to New Mexico permanently in 1957, and continued to paint until his death in 2011.

399 ROBERT BATEMAN (1930- ) Gulls on Pilings acrylic on masonite 40 x 30 inches signed lower right: © Robert Bateman 1977“One could say that I come from a shipbuilding background on my mother’s side of the family from Nova Scotia. I had many great-great uncles who built sailing ships. My mother’s stories gave me a love of ships, of the sea and of the seashore. Many types of structures you can find at the water’s edge - wharfs, docks, seawalls - particularly those made of wood, have a ring of history about them; they are of another era. Most modern structures are now made of cement. That is why this old setting, which is said to be part of an old, abandoned bridge, appealed to me. This setting appealed to me artistically. The accents of the birds on the pilings set up a syncopated rhythm like musical notes on a piano. I also feel that the empty space at the top of the painting is an important positive compositional element that makes a statement on its own.” — Robert Bateman PROVENANCE: Private Collection, Redlands, CA $25,000 – $45,000

478 ROBERT BATEMAN (1930- ) Nairobi Growth acrylic on canvas 36 x 36 inches signed lower right: Robert Bateman 2000 © “Growth is good. Growth is bad. During the 20th century we seem to have been obsessed with growth and bigger is better as virtues. But unbridled growth of almost anything can be disastrous. This especially applies to human population. It is hard on the present generation but also on future generations and especially on nature. This view from the air of a Nairobi slum brought it home to me. Without a change in philosophy the future of human settlement will look increasingly like this. Soaring above I have painted two white-backed vultures, perhaps one of the few creatures that will be compatible with this blighted future.” — Robert Bateman PROVENANCE: Private Collection, Redlands, CA $15,000 – $25,000

The property will be offered by the Jackson Hole Art Auction as agent for the consignors, unless the catalogue indicates otherwise. 1.
Jackson Hole Art Auction operates as an agent of the seller only. It is not responsible in the event any buyer or seller at the auction fails to live up to their respective agreements, including failure of the seller to deliver any property to buyers. The Jackson Hole Art Auction assumes no risk, liability, or responsibility beyond the limited warranty contained herein. a.
All property is sold “AS IS.” There are no representations or warranties that extend beyond these Terms and Conditions of Sale. All works shall be available for examination prior to the sale. The Jackson Hole Art Auction, and its agents and consignors, make no representations or warranties as to merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, correctness of the catalogue or description, including, but not limited to, the authenticity, the physical condition, size, quality, rarity, importance, medium, provenance, dates, exhibitions, literary or historical relevance of any property, and, no statement anywhere, whether oral or written, whether made in the catalogue, an advertisement, a bill of sale, a salesroom posting or announcement, or elsewhere shall be deemed such a warranty, representation or assumption of liability. Nor are there any representations and warranties, express or implied, as to whether the purchaser acquires any copyrights, including, but not limited to, any reproduction rights in any property. Contents of this catalogue are subject to change or supplementation before or during the sale, including the sale of any lot.
2.
Prospective bidders should inspect the property before bidding to determine its condition, size, and whether or not it has been repaired or restored.
3.
A buyer’s premium will be added to the successful bid price and is payable by the purchaser as part of the total purchase price. If paying by cash or check, the purchase price will be the sum of the final bid price plus a buyer’s premium of 17% of the final bid price of each lot up to and including $500,000, 15% of the excess of the final bid price above $500,000, and 12% of the excess of the final bid price above $1,000,000, plus any applicable sales tax, shipping and handling charges. The buyer’s premium is calculated separately for each lot. If paying by credit card, the purchase price will be the sum of the final bid price plus a buyer’s premium of 20% of the final bid price for each lot up to and including $500,000, 18% of the excess of the final bid price above $500,000, and 15% of the excess of the final bid price above $1,000,000, plus any applicable sales tax, shipping and handling charges.
4.
The Jackson Hole Art Auction reserves the right to withdraw any property before or during the sale and shall have no liability whatsoever for such withdrawal.
5.
Except as may be announced by the auctioneer, all bids are per lot, as numbered in the catalogue.
6.
The Jackson Hole Art Auction reserves the right to reject any bid. The highest bidder acknowledged by the auctioneer will be the purchaser, subject to reserves. In the event of any dispute between bidders, or in the event of doubt as to the validity of any bid, the auctioneer will have the final discretion to determine the successful bidder, cancel the sale, or to reoffer and resell the article in dispute. If any dispute arises after the sale, the Jackson Hole Art Auction’s sale record shall be final and conclusive. The Jackson Hole Art Auction, in its discretion, may execute orders or absentee bids as a convenience to clients who are not present at the auction; however, the Jackson Hole Art Auction is not responsible for any errors or omissions in connection therewith.
7.
If the auctioneer, in his or her discretion, determines that any bid is below the reserve of the article offered, he or she may reject the same and withdraw the article from sale, and, if having acknowledged an opening or other bid, the auctioneer decides that any advance thereafter is insufficient, he or she may reject the advance.
8.
On the fall of the auctioneer’s gavel, the highest bidder acknowledged by the auctioneer assumes full risk and responsibility for the offered lot, subject to all of the terms and conditions set forth herein, and is immediately obligated to pay the full purchase price or such parts thereof as the Jackson Hole Art Auction may then require. All sales are final, and there shall be no exchanges or returns. Payment shall be made by cash, check, wire transfer, Visa, MasterCard, or American Express. (See, paragraph 3 above: “If paying by credit card . . .”) In addition to other remedies available to us by law, the Jackson Hole Art Auction reserves the right to impose, from the date of sale, a late charge of 1.5% per month (18% per annum) of the total purchase price, if payment is not made in accordance with the conditions set forth herein.
9.
a.
All property must be removed by the purchaser at his or her expense not later than (10) business days following the sale, and if it is not so removed, (i) a handling charge of 1% of the total purchase price per month from the tenth day after the sale (until its removal) will be payable to us by the purchaser, with a minimum of 5% of the total purchase price due for any property not so removed within 60 days after the sale, and (ii) we may send the purchased property to a public warehouse for the account, at the risk and expense of the purchaser.
b.
If any applicable conditions herein are not complied with by the purchaser, the purchaser will be in default, and in addition to any and all other remedies available to the Jackson Hole Art Auction and its agents and consignors by law, including, without limitation, the right to hold the purchaser liable for the total purchase price, including all fees, charges, and expenses set forth herein, the Jackson Hole Art Auction, at its sole option, may (i) cancel the sale of that, or any other lot or lots sold to the defaulting purchaser, or (ii) resell the purchased property, whether at auction or by private sale, or (iii) effect any combination thereof. The purchaser will be liable for any deficiency, any and all costs, handling charges, late charges, expenses, and commissions of both sales, legal fees, and expenses, collection fees, and incidental damages. In addition, a defaulting purchaser will be deemed to have granted and assigned the property or money to the Jackson Hole Art Auction or its agents and consignors or any of their affiliated companies, and the Jackson Hole Art Auction may retain and apply such property or money as collateral security for the obligations due. The Jackson Hole Art Auction and its agents and consignors shall have all of the rights accorded to a secured party under the Wyoming Uniform Commercial Code. The purchaser of each lot agrees that each lot is unique and that the Jackson Hole Art Auction, in its sole discretion, shall not be required to sell or otherwise seek to mitigate damages should such purchaser fail to pay the total purchase price. Payment will not be deemed to have been made in full until the Jackson Hole Art Auction shall have collected good funds. The Jackson Hole Art Auction reserves the right to hold all purchases pending collection of the total purchase price.
All lots are subject to a reserve, which is the confidential minimum price acceptable of the consignor. In such instances, the Jackson Hole Art Auction may implement the reserve by bidding on behalf of the consignor. In instances where the Jackson Hole Art Auction has an interest in the lot, it may bid up to the reserve to protect such interest. The Jackson Hole Art Auction, or its agents or consignors, may also bid upon other property listed in this catalogue.
10. Jackson Hole Art Auction is the owner of images of each lot offered for sale and may use such images for its own archival purposes, as well as for advertising and publicity in connection with this or future sales by the Jackson Hole Art Auction.
11. Unless exempted by law, the purchaser will be required to pay all applicable state and local sales, gross receipts, and compensation tax. Proof of exemption in the form of a current Non-Taxable Transaction Certificate must be provided at registration. It is the purchaser’s responsibility to pay any applicable compensating use tax of another state on the total purchase price. 12. These Terms and Conditions of Sale, together with the parties’ respective rights and obligations hereunder, shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of Wyoming, without regard to Wyoming rules concerning conflicts of law. 13. Prospective bidders and purchasers agree that, in the event of any controversy or claim arising out of or relating to a sale of property, the party asserting such controversy or claim shall provide written notice thereof to the other party, and that any such controversy or claim not settled within fourteen (14) days of delivery of notice by the other party, including any controversy or claim arising from or relating to the sale, or to these Terms and Conditions of Sale, including the terms of this paragraph, shall be resolved and settled by binding arbitration in Jackson Hole, Wyoming, or such other place upon which the parties may agree, in writing; such arbitration shall be pursuant to the commercial arbitration rules of the American Arbitration Association then in effect; the award, which shall include costs of arbitration and an award of reasonable attorneys’ fees to the prevailing party, shall be final, and the judgment on the award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction. 14. The Jackson Hole Art Auction may, in its discretion and at a purchaser’s request, package and ship items as directed by the purchaser. In such event, purchaser agrees to the following conditions: a.
All such packaging, handling and shipping is at the sole risk of the purchaser, and the Jackson Hole Art Auction shall have no liability for any loss or damage to such items.
b.
A $100 packaging, handling, and shipping deposit will be included on purchase invoice. The balance of the packaging, handling and shipping charges will be billed after services are completed. Please allow 4-6 weeks for shipping.
15. Results are sent to buyers, catalogue subscribers, absentee and phone bidders, and other registered bidders four weeks after the sale. 16. Bidding increments will be as follow but may vary at the auctioneer’s discretion Under $2,000 $2,000 - $5,000 $5,000 - $10,000 $10,000 - $20,000 $20,000 - $50,000 $50,000 - $100,000 over $100,000

S A LE S TA X A recent Supreme Court ruling has led to changes nationwide regarding sales tax laws. In 2018 the Supreme Court of the United States ruled against Wayfair in favor of the state of South Dakota regarding the state’s right to collect sales tax on online purchases from a business without a physical presence in that state. This decision changed the existing status quo and has created a precedent for other states to collect sales tax from businesses without a physical presence in their state. The new laws vary from state to state and require all businesses (not just auction houses) to collect sales tax if they meet a given state’s threshold for an economic nexus. An economic nexus is used in place of a physical presence in the state and can be met by either a total sales amount limit into that state or a total number of individual transactions into that state. Currently the Jackson Hole Art Auction has met the threshold for an economic nexus in the following states: Arizona, Colorado, New Mexico, Texas, Utah, Washington, and Wyoming. If the purchaser is shipping to any of these states, the Jackson Hole Art Auction is required by law to add the appropriate state and local sales tax to the purchaser’s invoice. The following states do not currently have sales tax and/or applicable economic nexus laws, and as a result the Jackson Hole Art Auction is not required to collect sales tax from Alaska, Delaware, Montana, New Hampshire, or Oregon. Due to the variable nature of auction sales, and the small window in which they occur, the Jackson Hole Art Auction does not yet know if the states not listed above will require sales tax collection, as that will be determined by the total dollar amount sold into each state—which cannot be predicted. The Jackson Hole Art Auction will be tracking these totals live during the sale using tax software, and will strive to inform the purchaser at the time of invoicing if sales tax collection is required; however, it may be necessary to bill for sales tax post-sale if the threshold for an economic nexus in the purchaser’s state is met after the purchaser has paid. Even if the Jackson Hole Art Auction is not required to collect sales tax from the purchaser’s state, unless exempted by law, the purchaser will be required to pay all applicable state and local sales, gross receipts, and compensation tax per the terms and conditions. If the purchaser has a valid resale certificate, the purchaser will not be required to pay sales tax. Please provide a copy of this certificate at the time of registration for tax compliance.
