Description and Condition of Lots Prospective buyers must satisfy themselves concerning the condition of the goods and the matters referred to in the catalogue description, in accordance with section 6 of the Conditions of Sale and Business. Solely as a convenience, Bloomsbury Auctions may provide condition reports. Many items are of an age or nature which precludes their being in perfect condition and some descriptions in the catalogue, or given by way of condition report (made either orally or in writing), make reference to damage and/or restoration. We provide this information for guidance only and the absence of such a reference does not imply that an item is free from defects or restoration, nor does a reference to particular defects imply the absence of any others. Collation of Books If, on collation, any NAMED items in this catalogue prove defective, in text or illustration, the purchaser may reject the lot provided he returns it within fourteen days stating the defect in writing. This however will not apply in the case of un-named items, periodicals, autograph letters, manuscripts, music, maps, atlases, prints or drawings, nor in respect of damage to bindings, stains, foxing, marginal wormholes or other defects not affecting the completeness of the text, nor in respect of lack of list of plates, inserted advertisements, cancels or subsequently published volumes, supplements, appendices or plates or error in the enumerating of the plates, nor in respect of defects mentioned in the catalogue or announced at the time of sale.

Eligible items such as manuscripts, prints, photographs, drawings, framed maps, paintings, pens and other objects are subject to VAT on the buyer’s premium as part of the auctioneers margin scheme at a rate of 24%.

“I am always asked if I wore knickers for the shot astride the chair. I certainly did. But it had been a battle to keep them on. Morley had wanted to photograph me without any clothes on but I used the chair to cover my bust and pulled up my white knickers around my waist. Although the illusion was that I was totally naked, I wasn’t … It was awkward sitting on a chair in a pose which threw all my weight forward. It was difficult but I have very good balance. I like the photographs.” Christine Keeler

According to writer Graham McCann, TW3 challenged “the convention that television should not acknowledge that it is television; the show made no attempt to hide its cameras, allowed the microphone boom to intrude and often revealed other nuts and bolts of studio technology. He also denotes “a relaxed attitude to its running time: loosely structured and open-ended, it seemed to last just as long as it wanted and needed to last, even if that meant going beyond the advertised time for the ending [...] the real controversy of course, was caused by the content.”

“They were mostly mates. They were the easiest to get to come to the studio… But these pictures from the Box completely stand up and are simply against a white background… Still, they’re the hardest shots to do.

“There can be few surer indications of the iconic status of a photograph than discovering that the original image has been re-cast in three-dimensions; a number of intriguing examples exist. In each case, it is almost as if the momentous nature of the historical event, documented in the photograph, has insisted upon its subsequent immortalisation as a statue. Were it not for the fact that it would probably cause yet more traffic congestion in North London than there already is, there is little doubt that there would already be four bronze figures, unmistakably striding in step across one particularly celebrated pedestrian crossing in NW8. Iain Macmillan’s universally acclaimed photograph, featured (of course) on the cover of the Beatles’ ‘Abbey Road’ of 1969, is responsible for enough traffic disruption in any case, given that fans from across the globe continue to seek to emulate the most celebrated album cover of all time.

Holding up the traffic, local police gave Macmillan ten minutes to photograph the road and he managed to get six shots. Here are the six frames as well as the back cover.
£50,000-70,000

Encapsulating a significant cultural moment, it is an image that launched a notorious conspiracy theory, and that clearly still provides a touchstone for fans. The opportunity to see the image in close relation to the only other frames originally shot by the photographer is undoubtedly instructive. By judgment or serendipity (or more likely a bit of both), Macmillan was able to seize upon an instant that continues to have the power to resonate, forty-five years on. Whilst the desire to turn famous images into statues may be understandable, the truly iconic photographs of our times don’t actually need to be cast in bronze, or chipped out of marble; in their power to haunt our collective consciousness, they are monumental already.” Edward Dimsdale, Senior Lecturer, Photographic Theory University of the Arts, London

“In those days - there were no PAs. And 3,000 screaming chicks could just wail you out of the whole place. Just looking at the crowd, you could see them dragging the chicks out, sweating, screaming, convulsing. Astonishing, even at that age. At the same time, a whole roomful of chicks yelling at you is not so shabby, either. Because the year before, nobody would look at you. But they talk about us - the Beatles, those chicks wore those guys out. They stopped touring in 1966 - they were done already. They were ready to go to India and shit.” Keith Richards

Inspired by Brigitte Bardot, this young and vivacious star, Sam Levin broke with many of the traditions and conventions of Post-War cinema portraiture to create a series of images that encapsulate the spirit of the 1960s woman. Sam Levin’s photographs are amongst the most iconic ever taken of Bardot. He contributed perhaps more than any other photographer to Bardot’s early imaging as a ‘sex kitten’ with his sensual, risqué images.
Portraying her in vibrant colours, with tousled hair and bare feet, Levin broke away from traditional studio shoot conventions to create a new fashion aesthetic and sexual vocabulary. Levin’s photos of Bardot were one of the main forces that propelled Bardot’s image and thus France to compete with Hollywood sirens for publicity. In 1960 it was rumoured that Levin’s photo of Bardot from behind in a white corset sold more postcards than that of the Eiffel Tower.

In the mid 1960s, Brigitte Bardot released a series of pop records, the most interesting of which revolved around her collaborations with Serge Gainsbourg. Images from this specific photo shoot, titled The Pant Session (La Seance en pantalon) appeared on the covers of CINE and LUI magazines of that year. Though these images were taken at the peak of Bardot’s career, Levin makes sure Bardot still exudes the same sexual freedom of the 1960’s mentality, complete here with disheveled hair and tight orange trousers.

The Pope has been our best PR’ Gainsbourg told Jane in 1968. That year “Je T’Aime Moi Non Plus” was released. The record was banned in a few countries including Italy, under the Vatican’s instructions, due to Jane’s heavy sensuous breathing and the erotic lyrics. Meyerstein, Phillips director at the time, requested an album to be built around the song since he ‘would not mind going to prison, but not only for a song’. Although being banned on many radio stations, the song became a hit and also a symbol of the sexual revolution that would shake countries such as France at the time. It is still considered a masterpiece today.

“It came about because one day she complained to me that she was “being crucified” by feminists for her sex symbol status. They accused her of demeaning women (by) wearing bikinis like that from One Million Years B.C. I thought ‘that’s the shot I need’ and had a set built at 20th Century Fox Studios where she was filming another movie. She went along with it willingly but I lost my nerve and never published the picture until I found it in my archive 30 years later. Even today it makes people angry. They regard it as blasphemous.” Terry O’Neill

Lot numbers 48 to 51 show the creative partnership between the Swiss born photographer Jean Clemmer (1926-2001) and the fashion designer Paco Rabanne (b.1934) that started in the 1960s and produced some of the most iconic fashion photographs of the time – an erotic interplay between the female body and embellishment, also break with the common view of fashion photography by depicting black and Asian models which was revolutionary at this time. Depicting nude female models ‘dressed’ in Rabanne’s ‘unwearable’ fashions, these photographs do not only break with common view at fashion, they also epitomise the radical culture of sexual freedom of the 1960s at its apex in 1969. The fertile collaboration of Jean Clemmer and Paco Rabanne peaks in the execution of the iconic photobook “Canned Candies” in 1969.

£700-900 “One day in 1967, Hurn answered a call from a publicist on a promising-sounding science-fiction romp called Barbarella, which was being produced in Italy by Dino De Laurentiis. “They’d been having quite a tough time with Jane,” recalls Hurn, now 70. “She’s slightly difficult to photograph when she’s uptight. They asked me if I’d come to Rome and work with her. So that’s what I did. As luck would have it, we hit it off straight away - and I hit it off with Vadim too. I ended up spending about nine months with them.” Hurn photographed Fonda in her whole wardrobe of sexy “astronavigatrix” outfits, and says the 29-year-old star and her 39-year-old husband, Roger Vadim, were “very trusting and incredibly generous to me. At one time on the movie, I had my photographic equipment stolen. They went to the trouble - without telling me - of finding out exactly what it was and buying all new equipment. We’re talking Leicas, which are not cheap.” The Sunday Times, 22 May 2005

Dr. Strangelove or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb (commonly known as Dr. Strangelove), the 1964 black comedy directed by Kubrick and starring Peter Sellers in three of the major roles, including Group Captain Lionel Mandrake, President Merkin Muffley and Dr. Strangelove. The original plan was to end the movie with a scene in which everyone in the war room was involved in a cream pie fight. This scene ended removed from the final cut. In a 1969 interview, Kubrick stated: ‘I decided it was farce and not consistent with the satiric tone of the rest of the film.’ As Nile Southern, son of screenwriter Terry Southern suggests, the fight was originally meant to appear less humorous but ‘Since they were laughing, it was unusable, because instead of having that totally black, which would have been amazing, like, this blizzard, which in a sense is metaphorical for all of the missiles that are coming…you just have these guys having a good old time.’ These photographs thus provide a fantastic insight into a secret piece of cinematic history.

“Towards the end of the seventeen weeks allotted to location work, time began to drag and the altitude became more difficult to bear. Brigitte was showing the strain. (...) She still had her moments. Her colleagues - fellow artists, production staff, camera crew, stage handlers - were wildly enthusiastic about her splendid impersonation of Charlie Chaplin. Emerging from her trailer complete with a little moustache, bowler hat, cane and oversized boots, she shuffled and swivelled on her heels and looked endearingly pathetic. Considering Brigitte did not remember seeing a Chaplin film, the act came off remarkably well.” Biographer Willi Frischauer on filming the movie Viva Maria (Bardot: An intimate Biography, p. 131)

GLOSSARY OF TERMS The following glossary describes the terminology used in the catalogue description for each lot. Every reasonable effort is made in ensuring that the statements and terms in the catalogue are correct, but buyers are directed to our Conditions of Sales & Business and the
70
provisions therein, specifically with regard to the Limited Warranty. No Consignor or Gallery make any warranties or representations with respect to any lot. Buyers are advised to contact the photographs department for any additional information they may require.
Name of Artist Bloomsbury Auctions warrants the authorship described in the BoldType headings of each lot description.Where an artist’s name and dates are so described then that lot, in our best judgement, is by the artist. Every attempt is made to ensure the accuracy of the subsequent catalogue description, but the descriptive information is not encompassed within in our Limited Warranty. Where a lot is attributed to an artist then it is our opinion that the work may be by that artist but cannot be definitively determined to be so. Dates The date given in the title is that of the negative. When only one date is given it indicates that the print is vintage. This indicates that, to the best of our knowledge, the print was made within ten years of the negative. Where known, the print date of non-vintage work is given or otherwise, ‘printed later’ is stated in the description. Dreweatts and Bloomsbury Auctions do not guarantee the dates within the general description. Measurement Measurements refer to the image only and are described in centimetres (rounded to 1 decimal point) and inches (rounded to the nearest 1/8 inch) showing the height of the image followed by the width.
Medium Where indicated, this refers to BloomsburyAuctions’ opinion on the photographic technique that most closely describes how the print was produced. Framing Photographs are sold unframed unless otherwise stated in the lot description Condition Bloomsbury Auctions make no guarantee regarding the condition of any print. Please refer to the photographs department directly for a written condition report, though as all lots are offered for sale ‘as is’, interested buyers are strongly urged to examine lots in person. Estimates The estimates in bold refer to the pre-sale estimate of the lot in the currency of the Session of the sale and subsequent estimates in light type are provided as a currency conversion guide only. In all cases, estimates cannot be interpreted as prices. Copyright Buyers are advised that all lots are sold without copyright. Images may not, under any circumstance, be reproduced without the permission of the copyright holder.

These Conditions of Sale and Business constitute the contract between Dreweatts and Bloomsbury Auctions (the “Auctioneer”) and the seller, on the one hand, and the buyer on the other. By bidding at the auction, you agree to be bound by these terms. INFORMATION FOR BUYERS 1. Introduction. The following informative notes are intended to assist Buyers, particularly those inexperienced or new to our salerooms. All sales are conducted on our printed Conditions of Sale which are readily available for inspection and normally accompany catalogues. Our staff will be happy to help you if there is anything you do not fully understand. 2. Agency. As auctioneers we usually contract as agents for the seller whose identity, for reasons of confidentiality, is not normally disclosed. Accordingly if you buy your primary contract is with the seller. 3. Estimates. Estimates are designed to help buyers gauge what sort of sum might be involved for the purchase of a particular lot. The lower estimate may represent the reserve price and certainly will not be below it. Estimates do not include the Buyer’s Premium or VAT (where chargeable). Estimates are prepared some time before the sale and may be altered by announcement before the sale. They are in no sense definitive. 4. Buyer’s Premium. The Buyer agrees to pay a buyer’s premium on the hammer price of each lot purchased. The buyer’s premium is charged per lot at 24% of the hammer price (28.8% including VAT) up to and including £150,000, 18% (21.6% including VAT) of the hammer price from £150,001 up to and including £1,000,000, and 12% of the hammer price (14.4% including VAT) in excess of £1,000,001. VAT at the prevailing rate of 20% is added to all of these premiums and additional charges as defined below. 5. VAT. (*) indicates that VAT is payable by the purchaser at the standard rate (presently 20%) on the hammer price as well as being an element in the buyer’s premium. This imposition of VAT is likely to be because the seller is registered for VAT within the European Union and is not operating the Dealers Margin Scheme or because VAT is due at 20% on importation into the UK. The double symbol (**) indicates that the lot has been imported from outside the European Union and the present position is that these lots are liable to a reduced rate of VAT (5%) on the gross lot price (i.e. both the hammer price and the buyer’s premium). Lots which appear without either of the above symbols indicate that no VAT is payable on the hammer price. This is because such lots are sold using the Auctioneers’ Margin Scheme and it should be noted that the VAT included within the Premium is not recoverable as input tax. 6. Descriptions and Conditions. Condition reports are provided on our website or upon request. The absence of a report does not imply that a lot is without imperfections. The detail in a report will reflect the estimated value of the lot, and large numbers of such requests received shortly before the sale may not receive a response to all lots. Members of staff are not trained restorers or conservators and, particularly for higher value lots, you should obtain an opinion from such a professional. We recommend that you always view a lot in person. We are, primarily, agents for the seller. We are dependent on information provided by the seller and whilst we may inspect lots and act reasonably in taking a general view about them we are normally unable to carry out a detailed or any examination of lots in order to ascertain their condition in the way in which it would be wise for a buyer to do. Intending buyers have ample opportunity for inspection of goods and, therefore, accept responsibility for inspecting and investigating lots in which they may be interested. Please note carefully the exclusion of liability for the condition of lots contained in the Conditions of Sale. Neither the seller nor we, as the auctioneers, accept any responsibility for their condition. In particular, mechanical objects of any age are not guaranteed to be in working order. However, in so far as we have examined the goods and make a representation about their condition, we shall be liable for any defect which that examination ought to have revealed to the auctioneer but which would not have been revealed to the buyer had the buyer examined the goods. Additionally, in specified circumstances lots misdescribed because they are ‘deliberate forgeries’ may be returned and repayment made. There is a 3 week time limit. (The expression ‘deliberate forgery’ is defined in our Conditions of Sale). 7. Electrical goods. These are sold as ‘antiques’ only and if bought for use must be checked over for compliance with safety regulations by a qualified electrician first. 8. Export of goods. Buyers intending to export goods should ascertain (a) whether an export licence is required and (b) whether there is any specific prohibition on importing goods of that character because, e.g. they may contain prohibited materials such as ivory. Ask us if you need help. 9. Bidding. Bidders may be required to register before the sale commences and lots will be invoiced to the name and address on the registration form. Some form of identification may be required if you are unknown to us. Please enquire in advance about our arrangements for telephone bidding. 10. Commission bidding. Commission bids may be left with the auctioneers indicating the maximum amount to be bid excluding buyers’ premium. They will be executed as cheaply as possible having regard to the reserve (if any) and competing bids. If two buyers submit identical commission bids the auctioneers may prefer the first bid received. Please enquire in advance about our arrangements for the leaving of commission bids by telephone or fax. 11. Methods of Payment. The following methods of payment are acceptable. Debit Card drawn on a UK bank and registered to a UK billing address. There is no additional charge for purchases made with these cards. Bank transfer direct into our bank account, all transfers must state the relevant sale number, lot number and your bid / paddle number. If transferring from a foreign currency, the amount we receive must be the total due in pounds sterling (after currency conversion and the deduction of any bank charges). Our bank details can be found on the front or your invoice or in the sale catalogue under ‘Important Notices’. Sterling cash payments of up to £12,000 (subject to money laundering regulations). All major UK issued credit cards registered to a UK billing address with the exception of American Express and Diners Club. A surcharge of 3% is payable on all payments made by credit cards. Sterling personal cheques drawn on a UK bank account and made payable to ‘Dreweatts 1759’. It will be necessary to allow at least six working days for the cheque to clear before collecting your purchases. 12. Collection and storage. Please note what the Conditions of Sale state about collection and storage. It is important that goods are paid for and collected promptly. Any delay may involve the buyer in paying storage charges. 13. Droit de suite royalty charges. From 1st January 2012 all UK art market professionals (which includes but is not limited to; auctioneers, dealers, galleries, agents and other intermediaries) are required to collect a royalty payment for all works of art that have been produced by qualifying artists each time a work is re-sold during the artist’s lifetime and for a period up to 70 years following the artists death. This payment is only calculated on qualifying works of art which are sold for a hammer price more than the UK sterling equivalent of EURO 1,000 – the UK sterling equivalent will fluctuate in line with prevailing exchange rates.
respect to these charges will be retained by the auctioneers. The royalty charge that will be applied to qualifying items which achieve a hammer price of more than the UK sterling equivalent of EURO 1,000, but less than the UK sterling equivalent of EURO 50,000 is 4%. For qualifying items that sell for more than the UK sterling equivalent of EURO 50,000 a sliding scale of royalty charges will apply – for a complete list of the royalty charges and threshold levels, please see www.dacs.org.uk. There is no VAT payable on this royalty charge.
TERMS OF CONSIGNMENT FOR SELLERS 1. Interpretation. In these Terms the words ‘you’, ‘yours’, etc. refer to the Seller and if the consignment of goods to us is made by an agent we assume that the Seller has authorised the consignment and that the consignor has the Seller’s authority to contract. Similarly the words ‘we’, ‘us’, etc. refer to the Auctioneers. 2. Warranty. The Seller warrants that possession in the lots can be transferred to the with good and marketable title, free from any third party right and encumbrances, or potential claims. The Seller has provided all information concerning the ownership, condition and provenance, attribution, authenticity, import or export and of any concerns expressed by third parties concerning the same.
Buyer claims items history
3. All commissions and fees are subject to VAT at the prevailing rate. 4. Commission is charged to sellers at the following rates:- please enquire at our salerooms. 5. Removal costs. Items for sale must be consigned to the saleroom by any stated deadline and at your expense. We may be able to assist you with this process but any liability incurred to a carrier for haulage charges is solely your responsibility. 6. Loss and damage of goods. (a) Loss and Damage Warranty - Dreweatts is not authorised by the FSA to provide insurance to its clients, and does not do so. However Dreweatts for its own protection, assumes liability for property consigned to it at the lower pre-sale estimate until the hammer falls. To justify accepting liability, Dreweatts makes a charge of 1.5% of the hammer price plus VAT, subject to a minimum charge of £1.50, or if unsold 1.5% of our lower estimate. The liability assumed by Dreweatts shall be limited to the lower presale estimate or the hammer price if the lot is sold. (b) If the owner of the goods consigned instructs us in writing not to take such action, the goods then remain entirely at the owners risk unless and until the property in them passes to the Buyer or they are collected by or on behalf of the owner, and clause 6 (a) is inapplicable. 7. Illustrations. The cost of any illustrations is borne by you. If we consider that the Lot should be illustrated your permission will be asked first. The copyright in respect of such illustrations shall be the property of us, the auctioneers, as is the text of the catalogue. 8. Minimum bids and our discretion. Goods will normally be offered subject to a reserve agreed between us before the sale in accordance with clause 9. We may sell Lots below the reserve provided we account to you for the same sale proceeds as you would have received had the reserve been the hammer price. If you specifically give us a “discretion” we may accept a bid of up to 10% below the formal reserve. 9. Reserves. (a) You are entitled to place prior to the auction a reserve on any lot consigned, being the minimum hammer price at which that lot may be sold. Reserves must be reasonable and we may decline to offer goods which in our opinion would be subject to an unreasonably high reserve (in which case goods carry the storage and loss and damage warranty charges stipulated in these Terms of Consignment). (b) A reserve once set cannot be changed except with our consent. (c) Where a reserve has been placed only we may bid on your behalf and only up to the reserve (if any) and you may in no circumstances bid personally. (d) Reserves are not usually accepted for lots expected to realise below £100 10. Electrical items. These are subject to detailed statutory safety controls. Where such items are accepted for sale you accept responsibility for the cost of testing by external contractors. Goods not certified as safe by an electrician (unless antiques) will not be accepted for sale. They must be removed at your expense on your being notified. We reserve the right to dispose of unsafe goods as refuse, at your expense. 11. Soft furnishings. Soft furnishings. The sale of soft furnishings is strictly regulated by statute law in the interests of fire safety. Goods found to infringe safety regulations will not be offered and must be removed at your expense. We reserve the right to dispose of unsafe goods as refuse, at your expense. The rights of disposal referred to in clause 10 and 11 are subject to the provisions of The Torts (Interference with Goods) Act 1977, Schedule 1, a copy of which is available for inspection on request 12. Descriptions. Please assist us with accurate information as to the provenance etc. of goods where this is relevant. There is strict liability for the accuracy of descriptions under modern consumer legislation and in some circumstances responsibility lies with sellers if inaccuracies occur. We will assume that you have approved the catalogue description of your lots unless informed to the contrary. Where we are obliged to return the price to the buyer when the lot is a deliberate forgery under Condition 15 of the Conditions of Sale and we have accounted to you for the proceeds of sale you agree to reimburse us the sale proceeds. 13. Unsold. Unsold. If an item is unsold it may at our discretion be re-offered at a future sale. Where in our opinion an item is unsaleable you must collect such items from the saleroom promptly on being so informed. Otherwise, storage charges may be incurred. We reserve the right to charge for storage in these circumstances at a reasonable daily rate. 14. Withdrawn and bought in items. These are liable to incur a charge of 15% commission, 1.5 % Loss and Damage Warranty and any other costs incurred including but not limited to illustration and restoration fees all of these charges being subject to VAT on being bought in or withdrawn after being catalogued.
It is entirely the responsibility of the buyer to acquaint himself with the precise EURO to UK Sterling exchange rate on the day of the sale in this regard, and the auctioneer accepts no responsibility whatsoever if the qualifying rate is different to the rate indicated.
15. Conditions of Sale. You agree that all goods will be sold on our Conditions of Sale. In particular you undertake that you have the right to sell the goods either as owner or agent for the owner. You undertake to compensate us and any buyer or third party for all losses liabilities and expenses incurred in respect of and as a result of any breach of this undertaking. We will also, at our discretion, and as far as practicable, confirm that an item consigned for sale does not appear on the Art Loss register, which is administered by an independent third party.

16. Authority to deduct commission and expenses and retain premium and interest.
(b) You authorise us in our discretion to negotiate a sale by private treaty not later than the close of business 48 hours after the day of sale in the case of lots unsold at auction, in which case the same charges will be payable as if such lots had been sold at auction and so far as appropriate these Terms apply. 17. Warehousing. We disclaim all liability for goods delivered to our saleroom without sufficient sale instructions and reserve the right to make minimum warehousing charge of £10 per lot per day. Unsold lots are subject to the same charges if you do not remove them within a reasonable time of notification. If not removed within three weeks we reserve the right to sell them and defray charges from any net proceeds of sale or at your expense to consign them to the local authority for disposal. 18. Settlement. After sale settlement of the net sum due to you normally takes place within 28 days of the sale (by crossed cheque to the seller) unless the buyer has not paid for the goods. In this case no settlement will then be made but we will take your instructions in the light of our Conditions of Sale. You authorise any sums owed by you to us on other transactions to be deducted from the sale proceeds. You must note the liability to reimburse the proceeds of sale to us as under the circumstances provided for in Condition 12 above. You should therefore bear this potential liability in mind before parting with the proceeds of sale until the expiry of 28 days from the date of sale.

Descriptions and condition (1) Whilst we seek to describe lots accurately, it may be impractical for us to carry out exhaustive due diligence on each lot. Prospective buyers are given ample opportunities to view and inspect before any sale and they (and any independent experts on their behalf ) must satisfy themselves as to the accuracy of any description applied to a lot. Prospective buyers also bid on the understanding that, inevitably, representations or statements by us as to authorship, genuineness, origin, date, age, provenance, condition or estimated selling price involve matters of opinion. We undertake that any such opinion shall be honestly and reasonably held and accept liability for opinions given negligently or fraudulently. Subject to the foregoing neither we the auctioneer nor our employees or agents nor the seller accept liability for the correctness of such opinions and all conditions and warranties, whether relating to description, condition or quality of lots, express, implied or statutory, are hereby excluded. This Condition is subject to the next following Condition concerning deliberate forgeries and applies save as provided for in paragraph 6 “information to buyers”. (2) Private treaty sales made under these Conditions are deemed to be sales by auction for purposes of consumer legislation. 15. Forgeries. Notwithstanding the preceding Condition, any Lot which proves to be a deliberate forgery (as defined) may be returned to us by you within 21 days of the auction provided it is in the same condition as when bought, and is accompanied by particulars identifying it from the relevant catalogue description and a written statement of defects. If we are satisfied from the evidence presented that the Lot is a deliberate forgery we shall refund the money paid by you for the Lot including any buyer’s premium provided that (1) if the catalogue description reflected the accepted view of scholars and experts as at the date of sale or (2) you personally are not able to transfer a good and marketable title to us, you shall have no rights under this condition.
The right of return provided by this Condition is additional to any right or remedy provided by law or by these Conditions of Sale.
General 16. We shall have the right at our discretion, to refuse admission to our premises or attendance at our auctions by any person. 17.

Special terms may be used in catalogue descriptions of particular classes of items in which case the descriptions must be interpreted in accordance with any glossary appearing at the commencement of the catalogue. 20. Any indulgence extended to bidders, buyers or sellers by us notwithstanding the strict terms of these Conditions or of the Terms of Consignment shall affect the position at the relevant time only and in respect of that particular concession only; in all other respects these Conditions shall be construed as having full force and effect. 21.
