The Collection of Jean and Jim Barrow

By the time Jean and Jim Barrow built their Pawleys Island, South Carolina vacation house in 1999, they were already experienced collectors. The large, open air rooms in the couple’s new home were perfectly suited for modern art and the simple refinement of neoclassical furniture. Piece by piece, and always with a discerning eye for quality, the couple filled their new home with the very best art and objects they could find, buying at auction in New York and London, and from top dealers and galleries. The restrained elegance and balance of the furnishings perfectly complimented the modern masterpieces on the walls. The house was kept free of carpets, as they preferred to enjoy the clean lines and figured veneers unencumbered by distracting patterns. With their own keen sensibilities and the expert guidance of gallerists Kristy Stubbs of Dallas and Leslie Waddington of London for modern art, and advisor Milly McGehee for furniture, the couple formed the remarkable collection in this catalog. Additional research, expertise, and conservation was supplied by John Bivins, Jr., Deanne Levison, Sumpter Priddy, and Albert Sack, among other notables in the field. Many prominent experts played a role in forming the collection, but ultimately, across categories it was the couple’s own refined sense of quality and form that built the collection.

All of the Seymour furniture here was purchased with advice from Robert Mussey and is complemented by Jim’s extensive map collection, with rarities reaching back to the 15th century, exceptional American duck decoys, and fine folk art objects that added interest and whimsy to the collection. The sale concludes with over 500 bottles of fine wine from the couple’s personal climate controlled cellar.

The Barrows are known for their longtime philanthropy and support of numerous charitable causes. This includes generous support of museums, including the Dallas Museum of Art, and especially in Jim’s native state of South Carolina. The couple have quietly gifted extensively to the Nathaniel Russel House of the Historic Charleston Foundation, and the McKissick Museum and the Caroliniana Library at the University of South Carolina, among others. They provided essential support to the publications and exhibitions for The Furniture Masterworks of John and Thomas Seymour, as well as Rather Elegant than Showy: The Classical Furniture of Isaac Vose. Continuing the Barrows’ long tradition of generosity, the proceeds from the sale will go to further the couple’s many charitable initiatives through the James Purdy Barrow Foundation.

The notoriety of being the first follows Toots Zynsky. She was Dale Chihuly’s first student and assisted him in the founding and establishment of the Pilchuk Glass Center in Washington state. She invented the filet de verre technique and co-invented a thread pulling machine to create the fine glass fibers. She was the first artist commissioned by the Museum of Modern Art in New York to create a piece of contemporary glass.

Jeff Keen

(Jeffrey John Spencer Keen, British, 1923-2012)

ZAP, 1958, with artist’s stamp verso “Jeff Keen” within red circle, enamel on Masonite, 24 x 24 in. (61 x 61 cm.); leafed frame, 25-3/4 x 25-3/4 in.

Estimate: $6,000 - $9,000

“Zap directly evokes the graphic world of comic books with its onomatopoeic text, cartoon typography and bold use of vivid contrasting colours. The word ‘Zap’ weaves its way through Keen’s creative universe, appearing in his poems, collages, and films. Later in his career, Keen would also perform and hang out at the iconic Zap Club on the Brighton seafront. The painting Zap itself appears in multiple films by Keen, including his quasi-surrealist work Mad Love (197278) and the frenetic Cartoon Theatre of Dr. Gaz (1976-79). It forms an intergral part of Keen’s comic book aesthetic, his subversive use of popular culture, as well as his desire to combine sound, text and image in one creative practice.”Hales Gallery

Provenance: Eduardo Secci Gallery, Florence, Italy

Estimate: $100,000 - $150,000

“In August 62, I started doing silkscreens. I wanted something stronger that gave more of an assembly line effect. With silkscreening you pick a photograph, blow it up, transfer it in glue onto silk, and then roll ink across it so the ink goes through the silk but not through the glue. That way you get the same image, slightly different each time. It was all so simple quick, and chancy. I was thrilled with it. When Marilyn Monroe happened to die that month, I got the idea to make screens of her beautiful face the first Marilyns.” - Andy Warhol

Warhol lifted his iconic image from a publicity image taken while Marilyn was working on the 1953 box office hit Niagara.

Flag (Moratorium) (U.L.A.E. S5), 1969, edition 37/300, signed lower right “Jasper Johns”, Committee Against the War in Vietnam, publisher, offset lithograph printed in colors on wove paper, image 17-1/8 x 25-7/8 in. (43.2 x 65.7 cm.), sheet 20-1/8 x 28-5/8 in. (51.4 x 72.7 cm.); aluminum frame, 25-7/8 x 34-1/2 in.

Estimate: $20,000 - $30,000

Commissioned by Leo Castelli, this lithograph became a poignant symbol of anti war sentiment expressed in the Moratorium marches that occured across the United States in the Fall of 1969. Johns took the familiar flag and used the colors of military camouflage and the suggestion of Agent Orange and placed a “bullet” hole center. It provokes a reaction. If the viewer focuses on the center white dot for 60 seconds and then looks away at a blank white wall, the familiar color scheme of the American flag appears as an optical illusion.

Sumpter Priddy

Estimate: $30,000 - $50,000

According to Sumpter Priddy: “This intriguing Virginia table is unusual for its attenuated proportions and for its ambitious inlays. Its closest parallel is found in the French writing table or “bureau plat”, first introduced to America by Parisian cabinetmakers fleeing the “Reign of Terror.” In central Virginia, Thomas Jefferson and James Monroe, who both served as Minister to France, played an important role in popularizing the new French taste. Although the earlier history of the piece remains unknown, it strongly reflects the convergence of several cultural influences at play in central Virginia during the early years of the nineteenth century - is potentially linked to some of the region’s most significant families. “Montpelier”, the home of James Madison, adjoins the property, as do two nearby estates with Jefferson. It could potentially be linked to “Barboursville”, designed by Jefferson for Governor James Barbour, or “Frascati” constructed for Philip Pendleton Barbour by John Perry--one of Jefferson’s master builders at the University of Virginia.”

Goldsborough Family Rare Important Southern Inlaid Figured Mahogany Secretary Bookcase

Maryland or Virginia, possibly Annapolis, circa 1795, with distinctive scrolled pediment inlaid with a three masted sailing ship and plow centering a large wheat sheaf plinth, surmounted by carved and gilt spread wing eagle flanked by lightwood fan rosettes, bookcase with inlaid banded pediment and glazed doors opening to adjustable shelved interior, lower case with false two drawer front opening to finely inlaid satinwood and figured mahogany amphitheater interior, with dramatic fan and quarter fan inlaid prospect door, five satinwood document drawers with fluted classical column inlay, prospect door opening to three additional satinwood faced small drawers, poplar and yellow pine secondary, 99-3/4 x 47 x 22-3/4 in.

Provenance: By descent in the Goldsborough family of Horn’s Point Plantation: Probably Charles W. Goldsborough (1764-64), to his son Wiliam Tilghman Goldsborough (1808-1876), by sale in 1868 to Charles F. Goldsborough and Thomas W. Anderson, by sale in 1879 to John M. Perry, by sale in 1911 to John and Lillian Pattison, by sale in 1912 to T. Coleman du Pont (1863-1930);

Sumpter Priddy

Estimate: $40,000 - $60,000

As Sumpter Priddy’s write up attests, this fine secretary bookcase is “among the most commanding examples of Neoclassical cabinetwork from 18th century Chesapeake.” The symbols of commerce in the pediment including a triple masted sailing ship, a wheat sheaf, and a plow, point to the maritime and agricultural activities of the early Goldsborough family. The original owner of this desk is believed to have been Governor Charles W. Goldsborough (1765-1834), who served in Congress 1805-1817 as a representative of the Eastern Shore and as governor of the state from 1818-1819.

From Charles Goldsborough, the secretary likely passed to his son, the honorable William Tilghman Goldsborough (1808-1876) who served as Maryland’s state senator in 1837, and again in 1839 and 1842. He inherited Horn’s Point and its contents from his parents. Research notes recording the history of this secretary as it passed through the important families and houses of the Eastern Shore accompany the lot.

Though little is known about Mouzon’s life, his map became a landmark work which was consulted and copied widely after its publication due to its level of detail and accuracy.

“It was almost a kind of process of elimination, and that is, that with my work and particularly my early work, it’s almost like the architectural dictum that less is more and in a sense I got down to the subject matter of my work, to its bare bones: the subject is defined by its expression in the word itself. I mean LOVE is purely a skeleton of all that word has meant in all the erotic and religious aspects of the theme and to bring it down to the actual structure of the calligraphy itself is like a skeleton. It’s reducing it to the bare bones. It was really a matter of distillation.” - Robert Indiana

Massachusetts State House Chairs: A Rare Pair of Boston Federal Barrel Back Armchairs Documented to The Shop of George Bright, by Bill of Sale Boston, made for the Boston State House in 1797 by George Bright, each mahogany frame with deeply bowed back, burgundy leather upholstery with brass tacking, loose seat cushion, turned legs with brass casters, 34-1/2 x 22-1/4 in.

Provenance: Thomas Colville (Colville owned a total of four chairs, selling two to the State of Massachusetts and retaining two until they were handled by Israel Sack); Israel Sack, purchased July 1997

Estimate: $20,000 - $30,000

In 1797, George Bright of Boston sold 30 chairs to “The agents for building the new State House, in Boston.” A signed receipt survives, recording Bright’s accepting payment, “To making 30 mahogany chairs and then...$240.” Chairs attributed to this historic group are now owned by The Society for the Preservation of New England Antiquities (two), The Bostonian Society (two), Winterthur Museum (two). Nine of the surviving chairs, including the two offered here, were examined in detail by Susan L. Buck, in her article “Variations in Boston State House Chairs” Maine Antiques Digest, April 1991. Slight variations in construction and measurement between the chairs examined in her report leaves open the possibility that more than one hand was at work in their creation.

The lot is accompanied by copies of Susan Buck’s Technical and Stylistic Comparison Report, as well as the Israel Sack receipt and invoice.

“In the Spot Paintings the grid like texture creates the beginning of a system. On each painting no two colours are the same. This ends the simple system, it’s a simple system. No matter how I feel as an artist or a painter, the paintings end up looking happy.

I once said that the spot paintings could be what art looks like viewed through an imaginary microscope. They are what they are, perfectly dumb paintings, which feel absolutely right.” -Damien Hirst

A sofa with related leg design is in the collections of the Winterthur Museum (see Montgomery, catalog no. 37). In discussing this sofa in The Furniture Masterworks of John and Thomas Seymour, Mussey notes that “Few pieces of Boston Furniture represent such an original excursion into Regency design.”

A Very Rare Boston Federal Simon Willard Paint Decorated Lighthouse Clock

Roxbury, Massachusetts, circa 1818-1819, dial signed “Simon Willard”, two inked paper labels at case interior inscribed “Simon Willard/ for/William Saunders/1826” and “William Saunders. 1826/William A. Saunders. 1872”, painted iron dial with Roman numerals and original moon style hands set in brass bezel and frame with open sides exposing works, eight day brass movement, arch top brass movement plates surmounted by silvered false bell with fire gilt brass ball finial and brass ring, on removable brass plate with green velvet lining, situated atop a tapered cylindrical base with lower cove molding decorated in black, red, and gold paint, on painted square base with hinged front door opening to pendulum and weight, on ball feet, with blown glass dome cover, pendulum, weight, and winder key, 29-1/2 x 9 x 8 in.

Provenance: By 1938, with dealers Clapp & Graham; A Walpole Society Collector; By 1964, with John Walton; By 1977, Collection of Mr. and Mrs. Robert Lee Gill; Christie’s, January 15-16, 2004, lot 458 (accompanied by catalog pages and copy of invoice; Milly McGehee (accompanied by letter of invoice with description)

Estimate: $60,000 - $90,000

Painted examples of the form are exceptionally rare, and this lighthouse clock is further distinguished by its fine condition, surviving with its original glass dome and brass feet.

The accompanying write up from Milly McGehee notes: “The painted case with iron dial and lower rectangular base places this example among a small group of Willard lighthouse clocks made prior to 1820. Simon Willard received a patent for these “patent alarm timepieces” in December of 1819. Most known examples made after that date have enamel (rather than painted) dials and are signed “Patent.” Most patent examples also have un-painted mahogany cases with octagonal or circular bases. The early features of this example indicate it was made prior to the patent and circa 1818-1819.”

Only a handful of painted examples are known to survive. The only other painted example sold publicly that is known to us sold Sotheby’s, January 1997. This example is illustrated in Albert Sack, New Fine Points of Furniture, pages 131 and 146, where it is listed as a “Masterpiece”.

117 Fine Charleston Attributed Federal Inlaid Mahogany Card Table, ca. 1780-1800, with finely figured mahogany D-shaped top with triple line inlay, the inlaid skirt centering a square lightwood framed panel with lightwood and darkwood star inlay, the legs with lightwood inset patera over line and bellflower chain, inlaid tapered legs set on brass casters, 29-1/4 x 36 x 17-3/4 in.

Provenance: John Bivins Associates, purchased 2002, accompanied by write up from John Bivins discussing the table Estimate: $12,000 - $18,000

As the accompanying Bivins discussion indicates, “the variegated star found on the center tablet is a familiar Charleston motif, frequently seen on rosettes and prospect doors, and found on a card table signed by E.G. Sass, the son of one of the first German cabinetmakers to advertise in Charleston after the Revolution, and dated 1811.” Bivins goes on to note that “this table falls within the mainstream of neoclassical Charleston card tables and is an excellent example of the confluence of stylistic influences from both the Scottish and German schools of cabinetmaking.”

Collection of Martin Wunsch; Sold Christie’s, New York, September 22, 2014, lot 15

Estimate: $30,000 - $50,000

Distinguished by its figured veneers and dramatic inlays, this box stands among the finest known surviving Federal examples of its type. As noted in the Christie’s catalog, when the box last appeared on the market, it is “a true gem of American craftsmanship ...a rare example of the form and replicates in miniature the refined cabinetry of Federal-era Baltimore and Annapolis. Meticulously delineated and shaded, the conch shell inlay points to the work of a specialist inlay maker, who, based on surviving examples, supplied cabinet makers working in these two American cities.” Related conch shell inlays can be found on the works of John Shaw of Annapolis and William Patterson of Baltimore, among others. For related works, see William Voss Elder and Lou Bartlett, John Shaw: Cabinetmaker of Annapolis, catalog no. 43, 44, 55, and Priddy III, Flanigan, and Weidman, “The Genesis of Neoclassical Style in Baltimore Furniture”, American Furniture, 2000, pg. 83-84, fig. 36-39.

Sargent Family Federal Inlaid Burlwood and Satinwood Work Table Boston, attributed to John and Thomas Seymour, 1800-1810, top in finely grained burlwood veneer surrounded by Greek key banding, rich, exuberant satinwood drawer facings and case sides, dovetailed drawers with tropical exotic hardwood secondary, one side with pull out work bag, finely turned and reeded legs with brass casters, 29-3/4 x 20 x 15-3/4 in.

Provenance: By descent in the Sargent family: Daniel Sargent III (1731-1806) and his wife, Mary Turner Sargent (1743-1813) Daniel Sargent IV (17641842), son Maria Osborne Sargent (1803-1835), his daughter and her husband, Thomas Buckminster Curtis (1795-1871, d.

Estimate: $60,000 - $90,000

This exceptional table is arguably the best Boston Federal work table in private hands. It was discovered at the Palazzo Barbaro in Venice, having been transported there in the mid 19th century by Daniel Sargent Curtis and his wife, Ariana Randolf Wormeley Curtis, as part of the furnishings for the 60-room palazzo on the Grand Canal in Venice. Ariana was the granddaughter of Elizabeth Derby Preble, a niece of Elias Hasket Derby of Salem, thus linking this table to two of the most important families of early Boston - the Sargents and the Derbys. It is possible the table may have descended through the Derby family, as Ariana Curtis was the only surviving member of the Preble family. It is the mate to a table at the Museum of Fine Arts Boston (accession no. 1990.172). The sister table is illustrated in Vernon C. Stoneman, A Supplement to John and Thomas Seymour, Cabinetmakers in Boston, 1794-1816, catalog no. 49. Robert Mussey notes in his catalog entry for this table in The Furniture Masterworks of John and Thomas Seymour that, in addition to surviving extraordinarily well, the table is “even rarer in being one of a pair, the two being different only in their hardware pull patterns. The veneers on the tables are cut from the same flitches of veneer and placed identically on the various surfaces. The numerals “N1” and “2” (on this table) are inscribed in chalk on the matching drawer bottoms, indicating the tables were made in the Seymour shop at the same time.” The table offered here and its sister table at the Museum of Fine Arts Boston, rank among the finest surviving examples from Federal Boston.

143 Claudius Ptolemy - Ulm Map of the World, 1486 Claudius Ptolemy (fl. AD 127-145), engraver Johannes Schnitzer of Armszheim, Untitled map of the world surrounded by twelve headwinds, publisher Johann Reger (fl. 1480-1499) Ulm, 1486, engraving on laid paper with hand coloring, sheet 16-3/4 x 22-3/4 in.; framed, 27-3/4 x 34 in.

Estimate: $80,000 - $100,000

Based on the works of Roman astronomer, mathematician, and geographer Claudius Ptolemy, this early world map engraved by Johannes Schnitzer of Armszheim was originally published in 1482 by Leinhart Holle. The map was reissued in 1486 by Johan Reger, who took over the publishing following Holle’s bankruptcy, and is distinguished from the earlier edition by the coloring of the seas, which has now faded to brown. Few examples of either edition are said to remain today, making this map an exceptional rarity.

Antonio Floriano - Map of the World, 1555

Antonio Floriano, Untitled, Venice, 1555, double hemisphere map cut into 36 gores in the manner of printed globes, engraving on laid paper, map sheet (cut and laid onto backing), 18-1/4 x 32-1/2 in., overall 20-1/4 x 35 in.

Estimate: $40,000 - $60,000

Bearing no title, location, or date, this rare and striking Renaissance map of the world by Antonio Floriano of Udine was most likely published in 1555, when Floriano applied for a privilege to print “a mappemonde which has never been made before, with the aid of which one can easily study and learn cosmography and see the entire picture of the world, since it can be reduced to spheric form.” Based on Gerard Mercator’s 1538 world map, it is unusually rendered as 36 globe gores, and features little ornamentation aside from two portrait cartouches at the upper corners depicting Ptolemy and Floriano, the other cartouches having been left blank.

A Rare and Important Boston Federal Inlaid Mahogany Pedimented Tambour Desk circa 1800, one of only three known, attributed to the shop of John and Thomas Seymour, the three section desk in highly figured mahogany, the pedimented top section with hinged fall front surrounded by an inlaid plinth and urn finial, the tambours finely inlaid with bellflower chains and opening to reveal a blue green fitted interior, fitted with its original baize lined writing surface, the case sides with original brass carrying handles, the lower section with hinged lid with inlaid edge opening to the original blue baize lined writing surface, over three graduated doors each fitted with exceptionally rare original cobalt blue enameled pulls, on inlaid legs with pierced and carved knee returns, 66 x 37-1/2 x 27-1/2 in.

Provenance: Descendants of William and Hannah Cranch Bond;

Vernon C. Stoneman, Belmont, Massachusetts (author of the first monograph on the Seymours); Dorothy Stoneman, New York;

Sotheby’s New York, December 8, 1984 (cover of the Important American Furniture catalog); Skinner Auctions, March 1998;

Milly McGehee

Estimate: $60,000 - $90,000

Only two other examples of this remarkable pedimented tambour desk form are known to survive from Federal America, and to our knowledge this is the only example still in private hands. The first is in the collections of The White House. The other example descended in the Proctor family and sold at Sotheby’s in 1972 and the famous Lansdale Christie’s sale, and subsequently to the collection of George and Linda Kaufman. (See Flanigan, American Furniture from the Kaufman Collection, plate 84). Examples without the pediment include a labeled Seymour example at the Winterthur Museum (frontis of Mongomery’s book on Federal Furniture at Winterthur). The example offered here is distinguished by its dramatic and rare cobalt blue enameled drawer pulls, which are original to the desk. Extensive research including microscopic finish analysis executed by Susan Buck subsequent to the sale have clarified that the pediment is also from the Seymour shop. Copies of the examination report and the finish analysis results accompany the desk.

“My idea was to do a new kind of picture that spilled out the front of the picture plane, instead of receding. Every painting in history had always been like looking out an aperture. But because of this advertising, which I hated, I wanted to try putting fragments of realistic objects into space and having the biggest one be so big you couldn’t quite tell what it was. I just wanted to make a mysterious painting. I still don’t know if I ever succeeded, but it was a feeling I had.” - James Rosenquist

This quote defines “painting below zero,” a phrase coined by Rosenquist to explain his desire to take the viewer into virtual places by using the familiar, in this case the calla lilies, to create a platform for color and the nonobjective expression of art.

Horse

Provenance:

Estimate: $4,000 - $6,000

Horse and Rider is one of the few humans that Ryder has created that doesn’t wear a mask. Most of Ryder’s figures have minotaur or hare masks.

“I add the objects to create a more interesting texture and to add an element of fun. Some of the objects are everyday things that have broken or that I found relevant to that year or my children’s favourite toys (they weren’t too happy about that).

Some of the pieces are from other sculptures and I often feel like using them again. It’s like I want to add graffiti to my work so that the surface has a story as well as the sculpture itself.” -Sophie Ryder

It was made into a dress, designed by Leigh Rudd Simpson specifically for Lichtenstein’s friend Letty Lou Eisenhauer to wear to his opening at the Galerie Ileana Sonnabend in Paris in 1965. In addition to the dress, one other panel is known to exist. See page 26 for photograph of the dress.”

Marjorie Strider

(New York/Oklahoma, 1934-2014)

Green Vertical, 1964, foam resin and epoxy resin on Masonite with acrylic and oil, 96-1/4 x 48 x 10 in. (243.8 x 121.9 x 25.4 cm.)

Provenance: Pace Gallery, New York, NY (label verso); Christie’s New York, September 30, 2010, lot 133; Hollis Taggart Galleries, New York, NY, 2011

Estimate: $10,000 - $15,000

John Yau, in his essay for the exhibition, references this work and others such as Green Horizontal stating in summary, “...Strider not only underscores that growth and ripening are an inherent part of the life cycle, but openly celebrates sexuality and desire. Strider may well have intended to undermine minimalist insistence on paint just being paint. That Strider did these works at a time when literalism was preferred over associations of any sort amounted to a direct challenge to the Minimalist credo, which Frank Stella pithily stated as ‘what you see is what you see.’ Not so in Strider’s work. She might sum up her work of the 1960s this way: what you see is what you are thinking. And what everybody seems to be thinking about, is sex. Her work is an uncomfortable reminder of our baser instincts. This is why she needed to make it ‘comically obscene.’ Laughter is a form of release, a way to diminish the tension as well as acknowledge the conflict.”

Neon Sculpture of Pegasus (American, 20th/21st century)

Mobile Pegasus, with electrified acrylic base, 19-1/2 x 20 x 4-7/8 in.

Estimate: $300 - $500

In 1934, the original porcelain enamel and neon Pegasus sign was installed on the roof of the Magnolia Building in downtown Dallas. Installed in high winds, the Flying Red Horse atop its oil derrick foundation was an engineering feat. The 29-story building, located at the northeast corner of Akard and Commerce Streets, was built in 1922. It was Dallas’s first skyscraper, as well as the tallest building in Texas, the tallest building west of the Mississippi, and was taller than anything in Europe. It also was the first air conditioned high rise. The original Pegasus, the logo of the Magnolia Oil Company, was completed in six weeks in the Dallas plant of Texlite, Inc. The sign with its derrick base welcomed oilmen attending the American Petroleum Institute’s first annual meeting in November 1934. Although it was never intended to be a permanent structure, Pegasus still flies above the Magnolia Building. The “Flying Red Horse”, as it was referred to by Dallas residents, became a landmark immediately. As such, it has become a symbol of the great city of Dallas itself, longtime home of Jim and Jean Barrow. (For more on the Pegasus sign in Dallas, see inspireartdallas.org.)

The following bottles are vintages that the Barrows enjoyed, and they were sourced from fine producers and wine merchants over the 24 years since their Pawleys Island vacation house was built. Since the time of their purchase, these bottles have been meticulously cellared, and are offered here for you to enjoy. Photographs are available of the climate controlled wine cellar and will be provided upon request. Please see our terms of sale for details about wine and spirits purchases.

۰ Items purchased from our Asheville auction facility not picked up within ten business days of the auction will be assessed a storage fee of $5.00 per day, per item.

1. All items are sold as is, where is, with all faults. There are no warranties or representations of merchantability, of fitness, nor of any other kind, express or implied. All items are available for your examination prior to bidding. Your bidding will signify that you have examined the items as fully as you desire, or that you have chosen not to examine them. Written and oral descriptions are our opinions and should in no way be construed as a guarantee of any kind as to age, condition, materials or any other feature of items being sold. Our goal is to provide prospective bidders with accurate and detailed information. We recommend prospective bidders examine all items in which they have an interest. If you require absolute certainty in all areas of authenticity, and the results of your evaluation leave uncertainty in your mind, we recommend you not bid on the item in question. We do not give refunds. All sales are final. No statement written or oral made by the auctioneer shall be deemed a warranty or assumption of liability by Brunk Auctions or by any seller represented by Brunk Auctions.

2. Bidding will begin at a price appropriate according to the auctioneer’s discretion. The auctioneer always reserves the right to withdraw a lot for any reason they deem appropriate. At the auctioneer’s discretion, no bid of less than one half the low estimate will be accepted from any source: phone bidding, absentee bidding, internet bidding, or bidding in the gallery. All lots in this catalog are offered subject to a reserve, which is the confidential minimum hammer price at which a lot will be sold. In executing a reserve, the auctioneer has the right to bid on behalf of the Consignor, whether by opening bidding or continuing bidding in response to other bidders until reaching the reserve. If the reserve is not met, the Auctioneer has the right to withdraw the item from the sale.

3. Once we declare that an item is sold, we cannot reopen the bidding. It is the bidder’s responsibility to get our attention prior to our saying “sold”. We reserve the right to reject any bids deemed inappropriate or to withdraw any item(s) for lack of appropriate bids. If an item is withdrawn from the auction it will be offered again only at the auctioneer’s discretion.

4. Payment must be made by cash, approved check, wire transfer, or MasterCard, Visa, Discover and American Express credit cards. We reserve the right to require bank checks for large purchases. Buyers not known to us who wish to write a check must provide a current letter of credit from their bank guaranteeing funds for that account. Credit arrangements must be made by the Friday prior to the

day of auction so bank statements can be verified. We reserve the right to not issue a buyer’s number or to withhold merchandise if appropriate credit has not been established. We require wire transfers for international buyers. First time buyers will be required to pay by wire transfer or cashiers check.

5. Payment is expected at time of purchase. Payment for successful absentee, phone bids and online bids are required within five business days of the auction. Bidding on an item indicates the client’s acceptance of our Terms of Sale. Your signature on our Bid Form or acceptance of these terms through any online bidding platform constitutes permission to charge successful bids to credit cards if payment is not received within five days of the auction.

6. We are pleased to offer absentee and phone bidding for prospective bidders who cannot be present at the auction. Please complete the Absentee Bid and/or Phone Reservation form. Absentee bids are executed competitively and confidentially. All reservations for phone bidding are held in the strictest confidence and must be received by 5 pm the day before the auction. No additional phone bids can be accepted on the day of the auction including additions when speaking with a staff person on the phone. We can accept written absentee bids submitted on the Absentee Bid Form up to 30 lots before the item comes up for auction. Leaving an absentee or phone bid on a lot indicates your willingness to open the bidding at one half the printed low estimate, and gives the auctioneer the authority to open the bidding at that level. Brunk Auctions shall have the right to withdraw any item at any time for any reason and to default any sale in the event of an error or dispute.

7. In the case of identical absentee bids, the bid received first will prevail. Bids left on online Bidsquare.com, Invaluable.com, and Liveauctioneers. com are not executed until the item is offered in the live auction and the order in which they are received is not a factor. We sell 70-100 lots per hour. Following are general guidelines for bidding increments:

$0-$100 …………………..$25 increments

$100-1,000……………….$50 increments

$1,000-2,000…………….$100 increments

$2,000-3,000…………….$200 increments

$3,000-5,000…………….$250 increments

$5,000-10,000…………..$500 increments

$10,000-$20,000………$1,000 increments

$20,000-$50,000………$2,000 increments

$50,000-$100,000…….$5,000 increments above $100,000………auctioneers discretion

8. In our experience, cellular phones are not always dependable, and we recommend phone bidding reservations be made on land lines. We make every effort to honor all absentee and phone bid reservations, but we are not liable for any losses incurred as a result of failure to execute absentee bids or failed phone reservations. Submitting absentee bids or bidding by phone does not imply an extension of credit. Please see numbers 4 and 5 above.

9. Purchaser agrees that packing and shipping is done at the purchaser’s risk and that the purchaser will pay in advance all packing expenses, materials, carrier fees and insurance charges. At our discretion, items will either be packed by an agent such as a packaging store or Brunk Auctions. Please allow two weeks for shipping after payment is received. Shipment of large items is the responsibility of the purchaser. We are happy to provide names of carriers and shippers if a purchaser so requests. Brunk Auctions will have no liability for any loss or damage to shipped items.

10. Note to internet absentee bidders. We do

not accept cut bids, (bids less than the last interval) from the floor or from phone bidders, and we do not accept them from internet bidders. Thus it is possible that a lot could go to another bidder for less than your absentee bid. For example, if the bids are progressing in ten dollar increments, $50, $60, $70 and your absentee falls at $75, we will not take the bid since it is less than the $10 interval. We always encourage bidders to bid by phone or to leave absentee bids through our website to avoid such a situation.

11. All purchases are subject to applicable state sales tax (state where purchased) unless the state Certificate of Resale tax form is fully and completely filled out and received prior to time of purchase. Resale tax numbers from other states are accepted. International buyers are responsible for tariffs, taxes, or assessments of shipped items to the buyer’s country.

12. Bidding on an item indicates your understanding and acceptance of these Terms of Sale. If a purchaser breaches any of these Terms of Sale, including the obligation to pay for purchased items, Brunk Auctions may seek all remedies under the law including canceling the sale and reoffering the property without reserve.

13. A buyer’s premium will be applied to the purchase price of all items: 23%….Cash, check or wire transfer 26%….Bidsquare.com with cash, check or wire transfer 28%….Invaluable.com and Liveauctioneers.com with cash, check or wire transfer 3% will be added to all MasterCard, Visa, Discover and American Express credit cards charges

14. Purchased items not picked up within ten business days of the auction will be assessed a storage fee of $5.00 per day, per item. You authorize us to re-sell on your behalf any item not picked up within sixty calendar days. The costs of storage, plus any other costs directly related to the item, and an auctioneer’s commission of 20%, will be subtracted from the proceeds unless other arrangements have been made with Brunk Auctions. The minimum charge will be $50. The net proceeds will be mailed to your address as stated herein in full and final settlement of our obligations to you.

15. We are closed on Fridays the week following Saturday auctions. Please arrange appointments for other days.

16. Export and Permits – It is the purchaser’s sole responsibility to identify and obtain any necessary export, import, firearm, endangered species or other permit for the lot. Any symbols or notices in the sale catalogue reflect Brunk Auctions’ reasonable opinion at the time of cataloguing and are for bidders’ general guidance only; Brunk Auctions and the Consignor make no representations or warranties as to whether any lot is or is not subject to export or import restrictions or any embargoes.

17. ◉Endangered Species – Certain property sold at auction, for example, items made of or incorporating plant or animal materials, irrespective of age or value, may require a license or certificate prior to exportation and additional licenses or certificates upon importation to another country. Brunk Auctions suggests that international buyers check on foreign governments’ wildlife import requirements prior to placing a bid. All buyers agree to comply with any and all domestic and international restrictions on the trade of endangered species as a condition of the sale. Please note that the ability to obtain an export license or certificate does not ensure the ability to obtain an import license or

certificate in another country, and vice versa. It is the purchaser’s responsibility to obtain any export or import licenses and/or certificates as well as any other required documentation. In the case of denial of any export or import license or of delay in the obtaining of such licenses, the purchaser is still responsible for making on-time payment of the total purchase price for the lot. Although licenses can be obtained to export some types of endangered species, other types may not be exported at all, and other types may not be resold in the United States. Brunk Auctions is not able to assist the purchaser in attempting to obtain the appropriate licenses and/or certificates, and there is no assurance that an export license or certificate can be obtained. Please check with our specialists if you are uncertain as to whether a lot is subject to these export/import license and certificate requirements, or any other restrictions on exportation. Please note that bidders in New Jersey may not bid on any lots containing elephant ivory, mammoth ivory, or rhinoceros horn.

18. Due to the embargo on Persian carpets, international shipping is not available.

19. Brunk Auctions makes no warranty or guarantee whatsoever regarding the jewelry, its colored stones, diamonds, other gem materials, or `metals, or as to their status as natural, treated, “earth mined”, manmade or other. Appraisals, descriptions, photographs, are offered as a service and are not intended to be a complete analysis of the qualities and conditions of the jewelry. All identifications, information, weights, quality, cut, value and other estimates, are opinions, limited by examination and grading the mountings, the condition and cleanliness of the items. All gems, colored stones, diamonds, “cultured or natural pearls, fresh water, south sea, Tahitian pearls”, and other materials used in jewelry, may be enhanced by a variety of treatments. Brunk Auctions makes no warranties or guaranties that any clock or watch is in working order.

20. CONDITION OF FIREARMS: Brunk Auctions or its’ employees or consultants make no warranties or representations whatsoever concerning the operation of firing condition, safety to store or reliability of any firearm. Any firearm purchased is at the user’s risk. Brunk Auctions expressly disclaims any liability whatsoever for accident, injury or damage resulting to any person or property from the storage or use of any such lot.

21. Online registration and bidding approval is done at the sole discretion of the auction house. We recommend that online bidders sign up at least 24 hours in advance of the auction to allow for time to complete the approval process. We make no guarantees that new online bidders who register within 24 hours of the sale will be approved for bidding. After signing up to bid, new online bidders may receive a message requesting additional information; we cannot approve any client without the requested information. First time participants bidding through any online platform will be limited to a maximum of $25,000 total in cumulative bids. Parties who wish to bid on premium lots may be asked to submit a deposit by wire transfer. Correspondence between prospective clients and the Auction House must be established directly with Brunk Auctions through phone, fax, or one of the relevant email addresses. We make no guarantee that we can respond to requests submitted through third party messaging systems. Due to the high volume of inquiries made within 24 hours of the sale, we make no guarantee that clients who contact us during this period will receive a response. Bids left on Bidsquare.com, Invaluable. com, and Liveauctioneers.com are not executed until the item is offered in the live auction; therefore the order in which those bids are received is not a factor. We will make every effort within reason to accept and process bids from online participants. Brunk Auctions will not accept liability for any bids missed due to clerking issues, operator error, equipment failure, con-

nection delays, communication lapses, or technical malfunctions of any nature.

22. Coin grading is subjective and more ‘art’ than ‘science.’ As such, any descriptive or numeric grades given are supplied as a guide to our bidders and should not be seen as a guarantee to any grade that might be received from a third-party grader or grading company. Our best effort has been put forth to give condition reports that are as accurate as can reasonably be expected, however, firsthand inspection to formulate one’s own opinion is always recommended. Attributions such as Sheldon, Overton, and Friedberg numbers have been assigned on many lots and every measure has been taken to ensure accuracy. However, bidders should use our highly detailed photographs to assess and attribute as errors in cataloging do sometimes occur.

23. *Brunk Auctions strictly complies with all state and federal regulations pertaining to the sale, transfer, and transportation of firearms. It is the sole responsibility of the buyer to know and comply with all state firearms regulations prior to bidding. No persons associated with Brunk Auctions or their consignors warrant the safety or shootability of any firearm we sell. Buyers wishing to fire any weapon purchased from Brunk Auctions are strongly advised to have the weapon(s) examined by a competent gunsmith prior to use.

24. Please note purchases of wine are not available for in house shipping. Buyers can pick up in person or arrange for third party shipping or transportation in accordance with state and federal regulations. To our knowledge the wines offered here have been well cellared, but all details of handling, especially with early vintages, are not known. Purchases are at the buyer’s risk, and no returns for wine purchases will be accepted.
