Nelson Doubleday, Jr. (1933-2015) lived for much of his life in Oyster Bay and Locust Valley on Long Island’s storied North Shore. He was educated at Deerfield Academy and Princeton University, and enlisted in the Air Force in 1955, before returning home to join the family publishing empire, by then known as Doubleday and Company, of which he became president and chief executive in 1978. Focusing on other endeavors, he sold the company in 1986, a year that would prove fortuitous for many reasons.

Doubleday Publishing was founded in 1897 by Nelson, Jr.’s grandfather, Frank Nelson Doubleday, affectionately known as "Effendi" among his literary coterie, a play on his initials as well as a Near Eastern title of respect for an erudite man. F.N. Doubleday began his illustrious and lengthy career working at Charles Scribner’s Sons at the age of 14. His first publishing venture, named the Doubleday and McClure Company for his early merger with the magazine magnate Samuel Sidney McClure, was renamed Doubleday, Page &

Company in 1900 for his meaningful partnership with Walter Hines Page, the well-respected editor of The Atlantic Monthly. At this time, the company made the bold move to leave Manhattan and build a state-of-the-art facility in Garden City, Long Island. After Page's death in 1918, the company was again renamed, this time Doubleday, Doran for its acquisition of that major New York publishing house in 1927. Ultimately, after the War, the imprint settled on its final name: Doubleday and Company.

The publishing house was known for bringing the living masters of English literature to America, and Nelson Doubleday, Jr.'s library contains many of the special presentation copies of the books his grandfather published under the family imprint. Those authors became personal friends and were a frequent presence in both the publishing house in Garden City and at the family estate in Oyster Bay. Doubleday Publishing brought the World War I poetry of Rudyard Kipling, the sea-faring novels of Joseph Conrad, the musings of W. Somerset Maugham, and the desert wandering of T.E. Lawrence into the American consciousness

A fixture in the owner's box, Nelson Doubleday, Jr. stood by the team through thick and thin in subsequent years, and New York City was electrified again by the Mets vs. Yankees Subway Series of 2000, represented in this collection by the owner's National League Championship Series gold ring. Nelson Doubleday, Jr. was an avid yachtsmen and the owner of an important world class yacht, the 125-foot Palmer Johnson pilothouse schooner Mandalay. His love of sailing is evidenced by the splendid collection of nautical paintings that adorned his estate in Locust Valley. Among the highlights are five extremely fine works by the Anglo-American painter James Buttersworth, one capturing the drama of a regatta off Sandy Hook, New Jersey, the competing yachts unfurling their sails in a stiff breeze. Another smaller Buttersworth gem depicts a vibrant scene in New York Harbor, with

“It’s a funny thing about life; if you refuse to accept anything but the best, you very often get it.”

in that heady period between the Wars. His son carried the company forward printing important post-War works, such as Dwight Eisenhower's Crusade in Europe, issued with a signed copy of the D-Day Order inserted into the deluxe edition. The most prosperous publishing house of its day, Doubleday was recognized worldwide and was particularly beloved in its home city of New York. After selling the company in 1986, Nelson Doubleday, Jr. became majority owner of the New York Mets, his family having acquired their initial stake in the last place team in 1980 from the family of Joan Whitney Payson, the team’s original owner. The World Series-winning 1986 New York Mets team is one of the games' most storied, with scrappy play, scrappier players, and a game six miracle win against the favored Boston Red Sox that ignited the entire city of New York.

- Somerset Maugham

Castle Clinton in the background and the Dispatch, the pilot ship of the New York Herald rushing to shore with the latest news. The pursuit and capture of the American schooner John and William are featured in two impressive paintings by the marine specialist Robert Salmon. Finally, Montague Dawson, regarded as the finest sea painter of the twentieth century, is represented by eight superb examples, including the dramatic Two Clippers – Nocturne, showing two sailing vessels plying rough waters, guided by the light of a silver moon. Dawson’s intimate knowledge of the sea and ships, gained as a naval officer during the First World War, permitted him to render races between clipper ships as well as memorable naval engagements with remarkable accuracy as well as painterly skill. Like many of the grand estates on Long Island’s North Shore, the Doubleday home was graciously appointed with Georgian furniture, decorations and silver, which conveyed the air of an English country house. Of note are a pair of George II giltwood pier mirrors similar to designs by John Linnell and Thomas Chippendale and a collection of early 19th century English and Chinese export porcelains. As W. Somerset Maugham wrote, "It's a funny thing about life; if you refuse to accept anything but the best, you very often get it."

18 18 James Edward Buttersworth American/British, 1817-1894 New York Harbor with Castle Clinton, a Pilot Ship and a Frigate Signed J. E. Buttersworth (lr); indistinctly stamped in German on the reverse Oil on artist’s board 8 x 10 inches Depicting a bustling day in New York Harbor, this vibrant scene includes a view of Castle Clinton, built to protect New York Harbor from the British during the War of 1812. To the left is a triple-decker vessel that appears in quite a number of paintings by Buttersworth, and that appears to have been a product of his imagination. [Rudolph J. Schaefer, J. E. Buttersworth, 19th—Century Marine Painter, Mystic Seaport, 1975, p. 108] The Harbor is awash with sailing ships of all sizes – but at the center we see the dispatch boat of The New York Herald on its mission of intercepting ships arriving from Europe, to retrieve the news they carried. James Gordon Bennett, flamboyant publisher of the Herald, had initiated this practice in the 1830s, with the intention of being the first to publish news from abroad and beating his competitors (who waited until the ships had docked) to the punch. With increasing cooperation among newspapermen in the 1840s, and the advent of the telegraph in 1848, such schemes were no longer necessary. Castle Clinton itself was converted into a restaurant and theatre in 1824, and in 1855 began to serve a new function – as the official immigrant processing center in the nation. It continued in that role until 1890. C The Nelson Doubleday, Jr. Collection $25,000-35,000 See Illustration

One such competition, the Great Tea Race of 1866, ended with an unusually close finish, with the Taeping docking just 28 minutes before the Ariel. This was a particularly bitter defeat for the Ariel, which had been ahead for most of the run until encountering unfavorable tidal conditions in the Thames estuary.

An interesting display of long single page autograph letters, each signed by its respective author, the letters unrelated to one another but framed together below engraved portraits. Each letter approximately 9 1/2 x 7 1/4 inches. The Jackson with visible splits to folds, the Adams toned and with short tears, the Clay fine, unexamined out of frame. Comprising: Letter from John Quincy Adams to publisher Joseph Blunt, 1827, declining to write a sketch of his father and commenting on electioneering in Albany; letter from Henry Clay to James Brown, 1834, regarding the sale of a plantation and other personal matters; and letter from Andrew Jackson to Henry Baldwin, 1825, recommending a professor from Cumberland College. C The Nelson Doubleday, Jr. Collection $1,500-2,500 See Illustration 60 [ADAMS, JOHN QUINCY] VAN BUREN, MARTIN. Autograph manuscript being a portion of Van Buren’s autobiography, this section a sketch of John Quincy Adams. [N.p.: n.d. but circa 1854]. Fourteen page manuscript written in ink on eleven long sheets (and continued in ink and pencil on the verso of three sheets, although some of this a draft of an unrelated letter), housed in folding cloth case with gilt lettering. Each sheet approximately 12 3/4 x 7 3/4 inches, one sheet trimmed shorter. The manuscript is unsigned and each leaf bears manuscript page numbering (a note in Van Buren’s hand accounts for a hiatus), also with numerous strike throughs and corrections in Van Buren’s hand. Each sheet inlaid with no loss, some ink burn and blots, generally clean, the text large and quite dark. Van Buren’s sympathetic biographical sketch of a onetime political foe: “John Quincy Adams was as honest & incorruptible as his father. He was equally bold and fearless in the avowal and maintentance of his opinions, & in his feelings, & habits more Democratic ... my respect for his character as a straightforward, well meaning man, lasted from my first acquaintance with him in my Senatorial capacity till the close of his life.” An interesting read, the manuscript goes on to mention Jefferson, Clay, Madison, Jackson, and others of note. Van Buren’s autobiography was not published until 1918 from a copy of the original manuscript gifted to the Library of Congress by his son in 1905.

GEORGE WASHINGTON, 61 [AMERICAN REVOLUTION] WASHINGTON, GEORGE. Important 1776 letter signed to the New York Committee of Safety. [New York: 17 April 1776]. Four page manuscript letter on a bifolium, the text in the hand of aide William Palfrey and signed on the final leaf by Washington, the letter to the New York Committee of Safety [this known from the letter book copy in which this letter is addressed to William Paulding, chairman of the committee], and below Washington’s signature is a four line note from the committee calling a meeting in response to the letter. 8 3/8 x 7 1/4 inches. Nicely presented in a double-sided frame with portraits of Washington and Benjamin Franklin to the recto (this letter once thought to be in the hand of Franklin) and a view of Mount Vernon and the printed text of the letter to verso. Well preserved overall but the first and fourth pages lightly faded and with a faint old stain at center fold mostly at foot darkening some text and the signature, small punctures at fold points, unexamined out of frame.

IN THIS STIRRINGLY PATRIOTIC 1776 LETTER, WASHINGTON DEMANDS THE CITIZENS OF NEW YORK STOP SUPPLYING PROVISIONS TO BRITISH SHIPS OF WAR IN NEW YORK HARBOR. Washington, as commander in chief of the Continental Army, spent much of 1775 and early 1776 in Massachusetts, and upon the British evacuation of Boston ordered much of the army to New York where he arrived on April 4th. Once in the city, Washington was very much suprised to learn that New York’s Provincial Congress and the Committee of Safety continued to allow local merchants to supply provisions to the British ships anchored in New York Harbor as long as the British allowed ships importing goods to the city to pass unmolested. Washington points out the “glaring absurdity of such procedure” and to support his strong conviction, philosophically asks if New York is in a state of peace or war with Great Britain: “If the former why are our Ports shut up-Our Trade destroyed-Our property seized-Our Towns burnt, and our worthy and valuable Citizens led into Captivity & suffering the most cruel hardships? If the latter, my imagination is not fertile enough to suggest a reason in support of the intercourse.” He continues reporting that while the weak state of New York’s defenses once made these exchanges with the British necessary and even prudent, the defenses are now much improved and thus “the advantages of an intercourse of this kind are altogether on the side of the Enemy, whilst we derive not the smallest benefit from it” and further warns against the delivery of intelligence to the enemy by the merchants. Washington requests a ”total Stop to all future Correspondence with the Enemy” and that of the committee he is “relying upon your Zeal and attachment to the Cause of American Liberty for your assistance in putting a Stop to this Evil.” Washington also warns of the wider affect the exchanges with the British could have on the fragile unity among the American colonies as the “World is apt to judge from appearances, and while such Correspondence exists the reputation of the whole Colony will suffer in the Eyes of their American Bretheren” and suggests punishment for those who would continue these activities. A hurried note at the foot of the letter orders the committee to meet the next morning and by the end of April communication with the enemy was forbidden.

LEAF FROM 100 [GUTENBERG] NEWTON, A. EDWARD. A Noble Fragment being a leaf of the Gutenberg Bible 1450-1455. New York: Gabriel Wells, 1921. Containing a leaf from the Gutenberg Bible [Mainz: Printer of the 42-line Bible (Johann Gutenberg) and Johannes Fust, about 1455], consisting of Luke 1:12 to 2:9. Full dark blue morocco, title in gilt on upper cover, covers ruled in blind, publisher’s slipcase. 16 x 11 1/2 inches (40 x 29 cm); 8 ff. (including blanks), the Gutenberg leaf 15 3/8 x 11 1/8 inches (39 x 28.5 cm), neatly hinged to a blank following the text. Light wear to the leather spine, which is a little dry, with some evidence of restoration, the slipcase lightly restored, overall sound; the Gutenberg leaf within with the usual minor finger soil, three tiny marginal spots, overall in sound condition. With the bookplate of Nelson Doubleday on the front pastedown. The leaves in Wells’s Noble Fragment originate from the copy of the Gutenberg Bible whose lineage is the Court Library of Mannheim—Royal Library of Munich—Robert Curzon, 1810-1870, 14th Baron Zouche (from 1870)—Mary Cecil Curzon Frankland, 1877-1965, 17th Baroness Zouche (from 1917), sold via Sotheby’s, 9 November 1920, lot 70—Frank Sabin—Gabriel Wells. This was missing 50 of its 643 leaves, some of the remaining leaves had the lower margins cut away, and a number of leaves had losses where illuminations had been extracted. Given the condition, Wells decided that it would make fiscal sense to sell it by the leaf (and where possible, by complete books of the Bible), less of a heresy in 1921 than this seems today. This action enabled the New York Public Library copy to be brought to a state closer to completion, as with Wells’ gift of leaves only one leaf remained lacking from its copy. Other institutions were similarly able to perfect or partially perfect defective copies, and for a price of $150, many private collectors were able to own a page of this, the Editio Princeps of the Bible and the first substantial book printed from moveable type.

The leaf from Luke in this copy is two columns, 42 lines printed in Gutenberg’s type 1:140G. It is rubricated in red and blue (initial F of the second chapter with a two-line initial in red), headlines of alternate red-blue lombards, a chapter number of alternate red-blue elements, and red capital strokes. The Latin text contains Luke’s account of the birth of John the Baptist, the Annunciation, and the first part of the Nativity including the birth of Jesus; in short, Luke’s familiar account of the events leading up to, and including, the birth of Jesus. A more compelling single leaf from the first printed Bible is hard to imagine. For the Gutenberg Bible see Goff B-526; Hain 3031*; GW 04201 etc. C The Nelson Doubleday, Jr. Collection $40,000-60,000 See Illustration

The Outward Bound edition, inscribed twice and with a quotation by Kipling, the first inscription on the portrait (“Rudyard Kipling to F.N. Doubleday who invented this edition. Jan. 1897”) and again on the title page in 1899, the quote from Kipling’s “Follow Me ‘Ome.” 35 (of 36) volumes, parts XV & XVI each in two volumes but without volumes 30-32. Half morocco backed boards, the spines with strapwork bands and gilt lettering, slipcases. Some wear to joints and discolor to spines, some foxing and offsetting. Although published under Charles Scribner’s imprint, this first collected edition of Kipling’s works was made possible by F.N. Doubleday, whose first job in the publishing business was gathering subscriptions for his eventual competitor. In his memoirs, Doubleday wrote that one day someone asked: “Will you get me a complete set of Kipling in uniform binding?’ I told him that it did not exist. That gave me an idea that perhaps I could get permission to make a uniform set. The difficulties of the job, even now that I look back on it, were tremendous.” The difficulty was that Kipling’s works were published by four different companies - and none of them Scribner’s. Doubleday solicited the help of Kipling himself and with the success of this venture began their decades long friendship and partnership, which prospered once Doubleday began publishing under his own imprint. A tribute to his efforts, a tipped-in leaf at the front of this set reports that two copies were printed on special paper, one each for Kipling and Doubleday, and it is uncertain but possible that this twice inscribed set is that referenced.

The poem was first published in a McClure’s newspaper on 10 February 1899 and was immediately adopted by various group for political agendas. F.N. Doubleday’s first publishing venture was the Doubleday & McClure Company, founded in 1897, and much of the early success of the company had to do with Kipling. According to F.N. Doubleday’s note, this special volume was printed in in January 1899 while that relationship was still in its formative phase. C The Nelson Doubleday, Jr. Collection $2,000-3,000 See Illustration

Of the voyage, Doyle said 'I came of age at 80 degree north latitude', which he recounted in his diary, Dangerous Work: Diary of an Arctic Adventure, only published by the Conan Doyle Estate Ltd. in 2012, 130 years after it was written. Captain Gray, a man Doyle whom admired immensely, nicknamed Doyle as 'the Great Northern Diver' because Doyle repeatedly fell into the freezing water. Lt. Col. Colin B. Gray, the maker of this model of The Hope and the others in the Doubleday Collection, is a descendant of the Gray whaling family of Peterhead, Scotland.

CONDITIONS OF SALE 1. BINDING TERMS The lots listed in this catalogue will be offered by Doyle New York as owner or as agent for consignor subject to the following terms and conditions. Where Doyle is agent, the contract is between seller and buyer. The following Conditions of Sale and Terms of Guarantee constitute the entire agreement with the purchaser relative to the property listed in this catalogue. By bidding at auction you agree to be bound by these terms:

2. AS IS All lots are sold “AS IS” and without recourse and neither Doyle New York nor its consignor makes any warranties or representations, express or implied, with respect to such lots, except for the limited warranties expressly stated in the Terms of Guarantee section of this catalogue. Prospective buyers are strongly advised to examine personally any property in which they are interested, before the auction takes place, to determine its condition, size, and whether or not it has been repaired or restored. Except as otherwise expressly and specifically provided in the Terms of Guarantee, neither Doyle New York nor its consignor makes any express or implied warranty or representation of any kind or nature with respect to merchantability, fitness for purpose, correctness of the catalogue or other description of the physical condition, size, quality, rarity, importance, medium, material, genuineness, attribution, provenance, period, culture, source, origin, exhibitions, literature or historical significance of any lot sold. The absence of any reference to the condition of a lot does not imply that the lot is in perfect condition or completely free from wear and tear, imperfections or the effects of aging; nor does a reference to particular defects imply the absence of others. References in the catalogue entry or the condition report to damage or restoration are for guidance only and should be evaluated by personal inspection by the bidder or a knowledgeable representative. The Terms of Guarantee are controlling, and no statement, whether written or oral, and whether made in this catalogue, an advertisement, a bill of sale, a salesroom posting or announcement, the remarks of an auctioneer, or otherwise, shall be deemed to create any warranty, representation or assumption of liability. All statements by Doyle New York in the catalogue entry for the property or in the condition report, or made orally or in writing elsewhere, are statements of opinion and are not to be relied on as statements of fact. Except as stated in the Terms of Guarantee, neither Doyle New York nor the seller is responsible in any way for errors or omissions in the catalogue or any supplemental material. Buyers are responsible for satisfying themselves concerning the condition of the property and the matters referred to in the catalogue entry. Doyle New York and its consignor make no warranty or representation, express or implied, that the purchaser will acquire any copyright or reproduction rights to any lot sold. Doyle New York expressly reserves the right to reproduce any image of the lots sold in this catalogue.

The copyright in all images, illustrations and written material produced by or for Doyle New York relating to a lot, including the contents of this catalogue, is, and shall remain at all times, the property of Doyle New York and shall not be used by the buyer, nor by anyone else, without our prior written consent.

3. WITHDRAWAL Doyle New York reserves the right to withdraw any lot at any time prior to the commencement of bidding for such lot and shall have no liability whatsoever for such withdrawal.

4. RESERVES If the auctioneer decides that any opening bid is below the value of the lot offered, the auctioneer may reject that bid and withdraw the lot from sale; and if, having acknowledged an opening bid, he decides that any advance thereafter is insufficient, he may reject that advance. Unless otherwise indicated, all lots are offered subject to a reserve, which is the confidential minimum price below which such lot will not be sold. No reserve will exceed the low estimate of the lot. Reserves are agreed upon with the consignor or, in the absence thereof, in the absolute discretion of Doyle New York. Unless otherwise announced by the auctioneer, all bids are per lot as numbered in the catalogue. Lots marked C preceding the estimate are consigned and reserved. Those marked • are reserved property in which Doyle New York has an interest. Doyle New York on occasion makes loans or advances funds to consignors. The auctioneer may implement the reserve by opening bidding on any lot by placing a bid on behalf of the seller. The auctioneer will not specifically identify bids placed on behalf of the seller. The auctioneer may further bid on behalf of the seller, up to the amount of the reserve, by placing successive or consecutive bids for a lot or by placing bids in response to other bidders. Unless otherwise noted in the catalogue or by an announcement at the auction, Doyle New York acts as agent on behalf of the seller and does not permit the seller to bid on his or her own property.

5. ESTIMATES Each lot in the catalogue is given a low and high estimate representing that range which, in the opinion of Doyle New York, represents a fair and probable auction value. When possible, the estimate is based on previous auction records of comparable property, condition, rarity, quality and provenances. The estimates are often determined several months before a sale and are therefore subject to change upon further research of the property, or to reflect market conditions or currency fluctuations. Estimates are subject to revision. Actual prices realized for items can fall below or above this range. An estimate of the selling price should not be relied on as a statement that this is the price at which the item will sell or its value for any other purpose. Estimates do not include the buyer’s premium. Where “Estimate on Request” appears, please contact the Specialist Department for further information.

6. BIDDING Doyle New York reserves the right, at our complete discretion, to refuse admission to the premises or participation in any auction and to reject any bid, as well as the right to refuse to acknowledge any bidder. The highest bidder acknowledged by the auctioneer will be the purchaser. The auctioneer has the right at his absolute and sole discretion to advance the bidding in such a manner as he may decide, to withdraw or divide any lot, and to combine any two or more lots. In the event of error or dispute between bidders, or in the event of doubt on our part as to the validity of any bid, whether during or after the sale, the auctioneer has final discretion to determine the successful bidder, to continue the bidding, to cancel the sale, or to reoffer and resell the lot in dispute. If any dispute arises after the sale, the Doyle New York sale record shall be conclusive.

7. PURCHASER’S RESPONSIBILITY Title passes upon the fall of the auctioneer’s hammer to the highest acknowledged bidder, subject to the conditions of sale set forth herein. Such bidder there upon assumes full risk and responsibility there for (including, without limitation, liability for or damage to frames and glass covering prints, paintings or other works).

When making a bid, a bidder is accepting personal liability to pay the purchase price as follows, unless it has been explicitly agreed in writing with Doyle New York before the commencement of the sale that the bidder is acting as agent on behalf of an identified third party acceptable to Doyle New York, and that Doyle New York will look only to the principal for payment: The total purchase price to be paid by purchaser is the amount of the successful bid price plus a premium of 25% on the first $250,000 of the hammer price, 20% on the portion of the hammer price from $250,001 through $3,000,000, and 12% on that portion of the hammer price exceeding $3,000,000. Payment of each lot shall be made as follows: An additional fee will be charged on any purchase made through live online bidding.

The purchaser is responsible for paying 100% of this fee, the amount of which is determined by which site is used for their purchases.

Doyle New York makes no warranties whatsoever, express or implied, with respect to any material in the catalogue, except as set forth in bold print headings following individual lot numbers in this catalogue and subject to the exclusions set forth below.

2. COVERAGE UNDER THE GUARANTEE Subject to the exclusions set forth below in paragraphs 5 and 6, Doyle New York warrants the authorship (as that term is defined above) of each lot in this catalogue for a period of five years from the date of the sale of the lot. The guarantee is made only to the original purchaser of record at the auction, and only the registered bidder for the lot at the auction will be considered as the original purchaser. The buyer must give written notice of claim within five years from the date of the auction. Doyle New York may require, at its option, to have the purchaser obtain at the purchaser’s expense the opinion of two recognized experts (approved by Doyle New York) in the field relating to the item in question, before Doyle New York determines whether to rescind a sale under the above warranty. Upon request, Doyle New York will provide the purchaser with the names of acceptable experts.

3. NON-ASSIGNABILITY The benefits of this warranty are not assignable and shall be applicable only to the original purchaser of record (i.e., the registered bidder) and not to any subsequent owners (including, without limitation, donees, heirs, successors, beneficiaries or assigns) who have, or may acquire, an interest in any purchased property. The original buyer must have remained the owner of the lot without disposing of any interest in it to any third party.

4. SOLE REMEDY The purchaser agrees that in the case of a breach of warranty under these Terms of Guarantee, he shall have no remedy other than rescission of the sale and the refund of the original purchase price paid. The original purchase price paid is defined as the amount of the successful bid price, plus the buyer’s premium. No rescission and refund will be made unless the item is returned to Doyle New York at 175 East 87th Street, New York, NY 10128, in the same condition as at the time of sale. The remedy of rescission and refund is exclusive and the purchaser waives any other remedy which may be otherwise available in law or equity. Doyle New York shall not be liable for any special, consequential or incidental damages incurred or claimed including, without limitation, loss of profits or for interest.

5. EXCLUSIONS This warranty does not apply to: i. authorship of any paintings, drawings or sculpture created prior to 1870, unless the lot is determined to be a counterfeit which has a value at the date of the claim for rescission which is materially less than the purchase price paid for the lot; or ii. any catalogue description where it was specifically mentioned that there is a conflict of specialist opinion on the authorship of a lot; or iii. authorship which on the date of sale was in accordance with the then generally accepted opinion of scholars and specialists, despite the subsequent discovery of new information, whether historical or physical, concerning the artist or craftsman, his students, school, workshop or followers; or iv. the identification of periods or dates of execution which may be proven inaccurate by means of scientific processes not generally accepted for use until after publication of the catalogue, or which were unreasonably expensive or impractical to use at the time of publication of the catalogue. The term counterfeit is defined as a modern fake or forgery, made less than fifty years ago, and made with the intent to deceive. The authenticity of signatures, monograms, initials or other similar indications of authorship is expressly excluded as a controlling factor in determining whether a work is a counterfeit under the meaning of this Terms of Warranty.

6. LIMITED WARRANTY As stated in paragraph 2 of the Conditions of Sale, neither Doyle New York nor its consignor makes any express or implied representations or warranties whatsoever concerning any property in the catalogue, including without limitation, any warranty of merchantability or fitness for a particular purpose, except as specifically and expressly provided in these Terms of Guarantee.
