Beyond a Cincinnati Legacy: The Collection of Mr. and Mrs. Charles Fleischmann III Charles ‘Skip’ Fleischmann III’s great-grandfather, the first Charles, founded the Fleischmann Yeast Company in 1868, several years after immigrating to Cincinnati from Vienna. This began the legacy of the Fleischmann family in the United States, with many notable members making their mark. Charles exhibited at the 1876 Centennial Exposition which led the company to become the largest producer of yeast in the world. Charles’ elder son Julius was a businessman in his father’s footsteps but also an avid sailor, a baseball and equestrian enthusiast, and Cincinnati’s youngest mayor, elected at 28. Julius’ daughter Louise became the president of the Hamilton County League of Women Voters and an advocate for maternal health, among numerous other accomplishments. From 1931-32, Julius Fleischmann Jr and his wife Dorette took a nearly year-long trip around the world on their yacht Camargo, and they brought along their newborn daughter Dorette, and four-year-old son, Charles. It was perhaps this trip that helped to spark Charles’ fascination with history and travel. He was a voracious reader who by age ten had read all volumes of the Encyclopedia Britannica from beginning to end. He majored in Classics at Yale, working summertime archaeological digs in Gordion, Turkey. Upon graduating from college and before enrolling in law school, he attended the American School of Classical Studies in Athens. His wife, Blair Fleischmann shared his enthusiasm for history. While initially drawn to early Americana, over time their interests broadened to include the material culture of Europe, especially England. They participated in numerous forums and workshops, first at Colonial Williamsburg and later at the Attingham Trust Summer School in Shropshire, England. They developed lifelong friendships with likeminded people in Europe, and for many years spent the month of May in England, visiting friends and traveling around on their own, always at a leisurely pace and always on back roads, stopping to see historic houses and gardens open to the public. Though he was perhaps more private in terms of civic life than his predecessors, Charles, along with Blair, continued the family legacy of serving the city of Cincinnati through philanthropic work. Over the years, the Fleischmann Foundation helped to support the Cincinnati Art Museum, the Cincinnati Symphony Orchestra, the Cincinnati Ballet, the Cincinnati Historical Society, Playhouse in the Park, and other civic organizations—with Charles also serving on the board of many. These interests and travels resulted in the marvelous, eclectic collection offered here. While these lots represent only a small percentage of the art that Charles and Blair collected—they donated more than 3,000 objects to the Cincinnati Art Museum—they do exemplify their varied interests and unique collector’s eye. Early 19th century maritime painting and sailor-made artworks were evident areas of enthusiasm, but highlights come from diverse categories including Chinese Export porcelain, contemporary art, English portraiture, American furniture, presentation silver, and Grand Tour objects—just to name a few. Charles was a scholar of his own collection—as evidenced by the envelopes of research attached to the back of each painting and the endless books on art and history that lined the shelves of studies and hallways. It seems that every addition was thoughtful and meant to be revisited, with a spot in the home already in mind. These are the objects that the couple enjoyed, studied and lived with comfortably in their 1928 Indian Hill home, and with an artistic flair, embodied in the fanciful Italian villa nestled on the property’s lake. The collection presented here celebrates a couple whose family legacy and interests were far-reaching and worldly but who endeavored to use their resources and energy to benefit their hometown, elevating Cincinnati’s artistic and historic institutions with their efforts. Hindman is pleased to offer at auction the lifetime collection of Mr. And Mrs. Charles Fleischmann III.

Previously attributed to both George Romney (English, 1734-1802) and John Russell (English, 1745-1808), this painting has been the subject of much scrutiny and research not only by Skip Fleischmann but also by leading experts in the field of eighteenth-century British art. Fleishmann diligently documented his correspondence with curators, auction specialists, and collectors familiar with the oeuvres of both Romney and Russell, albeit seemingly without firm resolution. In a letter to Fleischmann from John Wilson, Curator of Painting and Sculpture at the Cincinnati Art Museum dated February 27, 1991, Wilson comments on the dubiousness of the Ward and Roberts authentication, stating that Roberts was “the [Sotheby’s] sale room correspondent for The Times who...would authenticate anything for a fiver....the Russell/Beechey [sic] track [for attribution] is certainly the right one to take.” Contradictorily, Richard Hall, Director of Sotheby’s in Chester, wrote to Fleischmann on November 22, 1990, that if Sotheby’s were to offer the painting at auction, they would “attribute it John W. Chandler and not Thomas Beach and definitely not George Romney.” A previous appraisal report prepared for the Fleischmann family sides with Hall over Wilson regarding the painting’s authorship, noting that “the attached plaque is erroneous in attributing the work to John Russell.” Further research from the Cincinnati Art Museum curatorial staff in 2004 alleges that in preparation for the 1961 Parke-Bernet Galleries catalogue, the artist was changed from Romney to Russell, perhaps even at the suggestion of Safron in order to obtain the portrait for a lesser price, although this claim has not been verified. The Wormald family held a seat as Lords of the Manor in Yorkshire, England as early as 1379. Given the timeline, the children depicted in the painting offered here could be the children or even grandchildren of Samuel Wormald (1726-1785), a prosperous tanner and timber merchant, who served as Yorkshire’s Lord Mayor, Chamberlain (1765), and Sheriff (1767-1768). His son, also called Samuel (1755-1814), served as Lord Mayor of Yorkshire by 1809, and his six surviving children erected the Mount Snever Observatory, also known as Oldstead Tower, as a memorial to their parents in St. Margaret’s, York, in 1838, on the occasion of Queen Victoria’s coronation. A collection of the Wormald family paintings, books, and coins was sold at auction in June of 1848, following the death of John Smith Wormald, one of Samuel’s six children, earlier that year in March. The announcement of the sale was featured in the Yorkshire Gazette, but there was no specific mention of this painting.

An American Three-Handled Enameled Silver Presentation Trophy TIFFANY AND CO., NEW YORK, LATE 19TH CENTURY

Carew, Nicholas Longworth, Christian R. Holmes, and Julius Fleischmann and his brother, Max. Height 9 1/4 x diameter 8 inches. An avid sailor and sportsman, Julius Fleischmann belonged to several yacht clubs and acquired a vessel of his own, the Hiawatha, in 1897. This trophy possibly could have been presented to Fleischmann’s father, Charles Louis Fleischmann (1835-1897), the founder of Fleischmann Yeast Company, in anticipation of the company’s thirty-year anniversary or to celebrate his memory in the year of his death. Alternatively, the trophy could mark the first cruise aboard the Hiawatha of Julius’s elder son, Charles Fleischmann (1895-1917), who would have been a young boy at the time. $3,000 - 4,000

The Hiawatha was a 170-foot grand sailing yacht purchased by Julius Fleischmann in 1897 from the Charles Seabury Co. of Morris Heights, New York. Fleischmann harbored the ship in Wickford, Rhode Island, where he summered and owned property for a time. During the season, the family cruised aboard the Hiawatha down the St. Lawrence Seaway and throughout the Great Lakes. This trophy could have been awarded by Governor Asa S. Bushnell (1834-1904, Governor 1896-1900) for Fleischmann’s achievements in an informal boat race or as an expression of gratitude for hosting the Governor and his staff on board the Hiawatha during the summer of 1899. Another possible explanation could be that the Republican Bushnell presented the trophy to Fleischmann on the occasion of his announcement to run for mayor of Cincinnati, given the parallel political inclinations of the two men. Fleischmann won the election and took office in 1900, becoming the city’s youngest mayor at age 28. He was reelected once and served in this capacity until 1905. He continued his political activity and later served as a delegate to three subsequent Republican National Conventions. $2,000 - 3,000

Thomas Buttersworth (British, 1768-1842) Burning of the USS Philadelphia oil on canvas signed T. Buttersworth, lower left 22 x 33 1/2 inches. Exhibition History: 10th Anniversary Spoleto Exhibition, Gibbes Museum of Art, Charleston, South Carolina, 1986. Previously captured by Tripolitans, the USS Philadelphia, a thirty-six-gun frigate built in 1799, was notoriously set ablaze in an American-led raid. England’s Lord Nelson purportedly called this scorched-earth tactic “the most bold and daring act of the age.” On February 16, 1804, Lieutenant Stephen Decatur (1779-1820) entered the Bay of Tripoli with a band of volunteer raiders aboard the ketch Intrepid. The Intrepid spuriously flew British colors as a merchant vessel, and the crew pretended that they had lost their anchors in a storm. Granted permission to anchor in the harbor, Decatur and his party boarded the Philadelphia under the cover of the night and set fire to the vessel, lest the Tripolitans repurpose her for piracy. $3,000 - 5,000

A Rare William Rose War of 1812 Lake Champlain Congressional Presentation Sword of Sailing Master Daniel Ricard 32.25” unfullered double-edged spear point blade. 38” in overall length overall. 5.75” gilt cast brass hilt with deep relief chased patterns. Grip ribbed on top and bottom with detailed raised mermaid motif on either side. Hilt and knuckle bow chased with nautical, patriotic, and classical themes. The down-turned exterior of the clamshell counterguard shows a Spread-Winged American Eagle surmounting anchors and a cannon and surrounded by a wreath. The interior of guard is decorated with a raised laurel wreath flanked by U and S. The diminutive oval reverse guard opposite the counterguard is chased with simple foliate boarder motifs while the interior shows an oval of 18 stars, arranged as a line of 13 on top with two groups of three underneath. Bottom half of knuckle bow is broken and missing as is the Roman soldier pommel cap. The blade is acid etched for 23” of its length with four rectangular panels on both sides showing various designs separated by Grecian meander frets. The reverse blade is etched with fine floral grape vines, text reading Altius ibunt qui ad/summa nituntur (He who aims highest, rises highest), a naval battle scene, panoplies of arms and geometric floral work. The obverse of the blade shows oak leaf scrolls, followed by the text DANIEL RICARD SAILING MASTER/Lake Champlain 11 September 1814, a panoply of arms with trident and more geometric floral work. The ricassos are marked MEER/Philadel on the obverse and W. ROSE on the reverse. Included is a partial leather scabbard with gilt fittings showing nautical motifs and a single hanger. The center mount is missing from the scabbard. Item comes with a 44.5” x 11.75” case frame, and has been removed from case for inspection. The War of 1812 was the only time that Congress ever presented swords to junior and warrant officers of the US Navy in appreciation for their service in specific actions. Congress authorized swords for presentation to sailing masters and midshipmen for a total of four actions during the war, The Battle of Lake Erie (September 10, 1813), The Battle of Lake Champlain (September 11, 1814), the action of the sloop USS Peacock against the brig HMS Epervier (April 29, 1814) and the action of the sloop USS Wasp against the HMS Reindeer (June 28, 1814). Some 80 or so swords were authorized by Congress for presentation to the sailing masters and midshipmen of those battles. Most of the swords featured gilt brass hilts and guards, but the swords from the Wasp-Reindeer action were of gilt silver. The blades were produced by William Rose and etched by John Meer of Philadelphia. They cost the somewhat astronomical sum of $250 at the time (circa 1817), which would exceed $200,000 today. A total of thirty-three swords are
listed in Peter Tuite’s US Naval Officers - Their Swords and Dirks as having been presented for the action on Lake Champlain. Of those, eleven went to sailing masters and twenty-two went to midshipmen. Of those swords, Tuite notes that nine were extant at the time of writing (2004), four of the sailing master swords and five of the midshipman swords. Of the extant swords, that of Sailing Master William Robins has a misspelled name on the blade, where it is etched as “Robbins”. It is worth noting that Sailing Master Daniel Ricard is not listed as one of the recipients of these swords and an extensive search of period newspapers and military records do not reveal his name. It is quite possible that the name was horribly botched when it was etched, a not so uncommon event at time when spelling was often phonetic at best. Despite the need for significant restoration, this is a legitimate and apparently previously unknown example of a rare and desirable Congressional Presentation Sword from the War of 1812. Framed: 44 1/2 x 11 3/4 inches. $5,000 - 10,000

Italian School, Late 18th Century Four Works: Views of Mt. Vesuvius circa 1794 gouache on paper unsigned title inscribed to lower edge of each: Espulsione di Cenere del Vesuvio, del 1794; Veduta di Napoli dalla Parte di Portici; Veduta di Napoli da Posilico; and Lava del Vesuvio de 1 Giugnio del 1794 14 1/4 x 21 inches. The backboard of Veduta di Napoli dalla Parte di Portici inscribed This view of Naples and Vesuvius was painted for Captain Joseph Wright Alsop before his marriage to Lucy Whittlesey. / His ship is in the harbor. / He died 1844. / Daughter Clara Pemeroy Alsop / Granddaughter Lucy Chauncey Alsop, with backboard of Espulsione di Cenere del Seuvio, del 1794 bearing a similar inscription: Brought from Naples, Ital. / by / Captain Joseph Wright Alsop / 1794 / Daughter Clara Pemeroy Alsop / Granddaughter Lucy Chauncey Alsop 1875. Joseph Wright Alsop (1722-1844) was born on March 2, 1772, to Richard and Mary Wright Alsop in Middleton, Connecticut. Richard was a merchant by trade, and he and his brother ran a successful cloth and dry goods house in New York before the family relocated to Connecticut in the wake of the American Revolution. On the East Coast, the Alsop family rose to political and social prominence, with Richard’s brother, John, serving as a delegate for New York to the Continental Congress, and another descendant, John Alsop King, later serving as the first Republican governor of New York.
On November 5, 1797, Joseph Alsop married Lucy Whittelsey (17731856), the daughter of Chauncey Whittelsey (1746-1812) of New Haven, Connecticut, an alumnus of Yale University, who was elected church deacon in 1778 and was appointed Quartermaster-General of the militia in 1782. The couple had five children together, including the first of six storied generations of Joseph Wright Alsops, among whom were state representatives, state senators, Connecticut lieutenant governors, journalists, agricultural board members, and University of Connecticut trustees. Family progenitor Joseph Alsop entered into the family business and continued his father’s mercantile interests. The Yale University Library holds sixty-four boxes of Alsop family papers, spanning 1734-1986, including documentation of their business dealings in Bolivia, Chile, and Peru. Travels to Italy seemingly happened earlier, given the date of the painting offered here, prior to the Alsop-Whittlesey marriage in 1797. According to the genealogical record, Clara Pemeroy Alsop, referenced in the inscriptions, died in infancy, but her younger brother, Charles Richard Alsop (1802-1865) survived through adulthood and had six children, among whom was Lucy Chauncey Alsop (1834-1922), who inherited the paintings in 1875. She remained in Middletown per United States census records but was granted a patent by the United Kingdom on November 5, 1894, for her “Improvements in Railway Signal Apparatus.” Provenance: Captain Joseph Alsop (1722-1844), Middletown, Connecticut; be descent within the Alsop family, to his granddaughter Lucy Chauncey Alsop (1802-1865), 1875. $1,500 - 2,500

GUIDE FOR PROSPECTIVE BUYERS
Evaluation of Property Hindman is pleased to provide complimentary auction estimates for items you’re considering consigning. You are welcome to submit items electronically (consign@hindmanauctions.com) or to contact any of our offices directly.
Conditions of Sale All bidders with Hindman LLC must read and agree to Conditions of Sale posted in this catalogue prior to bidding at an auction.
Our specialists are eager to help you learn more about your collection and current auction sale estimates.
Viewing Auction Items It is highly recommended that all prospective bidders either view the sale via our online catalogue or contact Hindman LLC for further images or to schedule an appointment to view objects in person.
To begin an estimate, our specialists will need: • At least 3 photos • Detailed description • Details on signatures or marks
Estimates Hindman LLC provides catalogue descriptions and pre-auction estimates for each lot included in the sale. These estimates are a guide for prospective bidders. They are not definitive. All pre-sale estimates are subject to revision.
Shipping Arrangements Buyers assume full responsibility for the packing and shipping of lots won at auction. Our Recommended Shippers offer a wide variety of local, domestic, and international shipping options.
Condition Reports We are happy to provide a condition report for lots with a low estimate of $300 and above. Nevertheless, intending buyers are reminded that condition reports are statements of our opinion only, and that each lot is sold “AS IS,” per our Conditions of Sale, as outlined in the back of this catalogue. All lots should be viewed personally by prospective buyers or their agents to evaluate the condition of the property offered for sale due to the highly subjective nature of condition reports.
In the interest of our clients, Hindman requires a written authorization from the buyer in order to release property to anyone other than the purchaser of record (including but not limited to our recommended shippers). You may submit the Shipping Release Form via fax to 312.280.1211 or email to shipping@hindmanauctions.com

Specialists evaluate thousands of objects each year for auction, allowing them to closely monitor the nuances of the current market. Professional appraisals are prepared for estate tax, gift tax, charitable contribution, insurance and for equitable distribution purposes. • Estate Tax • Gift Tax • Charitable Contribution • Insurance • Appraisals for Corporate Valuation Needs Our trust and estates department recognizes that each client and appraisal situation is unique and often involves multiple asset categories and residences. Fees for appraisals are determined by the number of specialists, hours involved and the necessary travel and expenses. Our competitive fees are negotiated based upon the express needs of each client and are competitive within the marketplace. Please contact our Appraisals Department (appraisals@ hindmanauctions.com) for more information.
Estate Services Estate settlement is a meticulous and multi-faceted process. Hindman provides executors, fiduciaries and beneficiaries throughout the country with confidential and customized appraisals and disposition services. All appraisals are prepared fully in accordance with USPAP guidelines and meet all current requirements set forth by the IRS. We recognize that each client and appraisal situation is unique and often involves multiple asset categories and residences. Our Trusts and Estates department offers services that are tailored to meet our clients’ timelines and specifications. Our specialists offer complimentary walk-through services with the goal of providing an accurate representation of each items’ value based on the current auction market. A detailed proposal outlining the manner in which a sale will be conducted from the initial value assessment to removal of the property and settlement is provided to all parties involved. Please contact our Estate Services (inquiries@hindmanauctions.com) team for more information.

Conditions of Sale These Conditions of Sale set out the terms upon which Hindman LLC (“we,” “us,” or “our”) sells property by lot in this catalogue. You agree to be bound by these terms by registering to bid and/or by bidding in our auction. A. BEFORE THE AUCTION 1. LOT DESCRIPTIONS AND WARRANTIES Our description of a lot, any statement of a lot’s condition, and any other oral or written statement about a lot—such as its nature, condition, artist, period, materials, dimensions, weight, exhibition or publication history, or provenance— are our opinion and shall not to be relied upon by you as a statement of fact. Except for the limited authenticity warranty contained in paragraphs E and F below, we do not provide any guarantee of our description or the nature of a lot. 2. CONDITION The physical condition of lots in our auctions can vary due to age, normal wear and tear, previous damage, and restoration/repair. All lots are sold “AS IS,” in the condition they are in at the time of the auction, and we and the seller make no representation or warranty and assume no liability of any kind as to a lot’s condition. Any reference to condition in a catalogue description or a condition report shall not amount to a full accounting of condition and may not include all faults, inherent defects, restoration, alteration, or adaptation. Likewise, images in our catalogue may not depict a lot accurately, as colors and shades may appear different in print or on screen than on physical inspection. We are not responsible for providing you with a description of a lot’s condition in the catalogue or in a condition report. 3. VIEWING LOTS We offer pre-auction viewings, either scheduled or by appointment, that are free of charge. If you believe that the catalogue description or condition reports are not sufficient, we suggest you inspect a lot personally or through a knowledgeable representative before you bid on a lot to make sure that you accept the description and its condition. We recommend you hire a professional adviser if you are not familiar with how to address the nature or condition of an object. Hindman has several salerooms throughout the country and the location of sales, or individual items may vary. It is important to check with our website and be aware of where each lot is located, for both viewing and for shipping purposes. 4. ESTIMATES Estimates of a lot account for the condition, rarity, quality, and provenance of the object and are based upon prices realized for similar objects in past auctions. Neither you nor anyone else may rely on our estimates as a prediction or guarantee of the actual selling price of a lot or its value for any other purpose. Estimates do not include the buyer’s premium, any applicable taxes, and any other applicable charges. 5. WITHDRAWAL We may, in our sole discretion, withdraw a lot from auction at any time prior to or during the sale and shall have no liability to you for our decision to withdraw. B. REGISTERING TO BID 1. GENERAL We reserve the right to reject any bid. By participating in the sale, you represent and warrant that: (a) The bidder and/or purchaser is not subject to trade sanctions, embargoes or any other restriction on trade in the jurisdiction in which it does business as well as under the laws and regulations of the United States, and is not owned (nor partly owned) or controlled by such sanctioned person(s) (collectively, “Sanctioned Person(s)”); (b) Where you are acting as agent, your principal is not a Sanctioned Person(s) nor owned (or partly owned) or controlled by Sanctioned Person(s); and (c) The bidder and/or purchaser undertakes that none of the purchase price will be funded by any Sanctioned Person(s), nor will any party be involved in the transaction including financial institutions, freight forwarders or other forwarding agents or any other party be a Sanctioned Person(s) nor owned (or partly owned) or controlled by a Sanctioned Person(s), unless such activity is authorized in writing by the government authority having jurisdiction over the transaction or in applicable law or regulation. 2. NEW BIDDERS New bidders must register at least twenty-four (24) hours before an auction and must provide us with documentation of their identity. (a) Individuals must provide photo identification (driver’s license, non-driver ID card, or passport) and, if not shown on the photo identification, proof of current address (a current utility bill or bank statement). (b) Corporate clients must provide a Certificate of Incorporation or its equivalent bearing the company’s
name and registered address, together with documentary proof of directors and beneficial owners. (c) Trusts, partnerships, offshore companies, and other business entities must contact us in advance of the auction to discuss our requirements. If we are not satisfied with the information you provide us in our bidder identification and other registration procedures, we may refuse to register you to bid, and if you make a successful bid, we may cancel the contract for sale between you and the seller. New bidders may be required to provide us with a financial reference and/or a deposit before we allow them to bid. 3. RETURNING BIDDERS If you have not bought anything from us recently, then we may require you to register as a new bidder, as described in the paragraph above. Please contact us at least twenty-four (24) hours prior to the auction. 4. BIDDING FOR ANOTHER PERSON If you are bidding as an agent on behalf of another person, your principal must be a registered bidder and must provide us with written authorization allowing you to bid. You, as the agent, shall accept personal liability to pay the purchase price and all other sums due unless we have agreed in writing before the auction that you are acting as an agent on behalf of your principal and that we will only seek payment from your principal. 5. BIDDING IN THE SALEROOM If you wish to bid in the saleroom, you must first acquire a bidding paddle at least thirty (30) minutes before the auction. 6. OUR BIDDING SERVICES We offer the following bidding services as a convenience to our clients, subject to these Conditions of Sale. We shall not be responsible for any error, omission, or failure, human or otherwise, in providing these services. (a) Phone Bids: You must contact us at least twenty-four (24) hours prior to the auction to arrange a phone bid. We will accept bids by telephone for lots only if our staff is available to take the bids. We agree that we may record telephone bids. (b) Internet Bids: You can bid in our live sales via our bidding platform or through third-party bidding sites. (c) Written Bids: You can find a Written Bid Form at the auction location, or online at www.hindmanauctions.com. We must receive your completed Written Bid Form at least twenty-four (24) hours before the auction. We will endeavor to execute written bids at the lowest possible price consistent with the reserve. If you make a written bid on a lot that does not have a reserve and there is no higher bid than yours, we will bid on your behalf at approximately fifty percent (50%) of the low estimate or, if lower, the amount of your bid. The first written bid we receive of those for identical amounts will be given priority over other bids. 7. CREDIT CARD AUTHORIZATION HOLD When you register to bid you may be asked to provide us with a valid credit card number. You authorize us to verify the validity of the credit card by placing a temporary authorization hold on the card that will remain until it falls off, usually within 2 to 7 days. C. DURING THE AUCTION 1. BIDDING IN THE AUCTION (a) Live Auctions. We will appoint an individual auctioneer to administer a live auction. The auctioneer may accept bids from (a) written bids left with us by bidders before the auction; (b) bidders in the saleroom; (c) telephone bidders; and (d) Internet bidders, including bidders through third-party bidding sites. Bidding generally starts below the low estimate and increases in steps, called bid increments. The auctioneer will decide at his/her sole option where the bidding should start and the bid increments. Bid increments may vary from auction to auction. You shall comply with all laws and regulations in force that govern your bidding. (b) Online Auctions. The auctioneer will accept bids from Internet bidders, including bidders through third-party bidding sites. Bidding generally starts below the low estimate and increases in steps, called bid increments. The auctioneer will decide at his/her sole option where the bidding should start and the bid increments. Bid increments may vary from auction to auction. You shall comply with all laws and regulations in force that govern your bidding. (c) Timed Auctions. Bids may only be submitted on our website between the dates and times specified in the lot’s description. Your bid is submitted once you place and confirm your bid amount. You agree that a bid is final once it is placed and that you may never amend or revoke your bid. You are fully responsible for any errors you make in bidding. Bidding generally opens at or below the low estimate and increases in steps (bidding increments) to be determined in Hindman’s sole discretion.

2. AUCTIONEER’S DISCRETION The auctioneer shall have absolute discretion to (a) admit a bidder into or remove a bidder from the saleroom or online auction; (b) accept or refuse any bid; (c) change the order of the lots in the auction; (d) move the bidding backward or forward; (e) withdraw any lot from the auction; (f) divide any lot or combine any two or more lots; (g) reopen or continue the bidding even after the hammer has fallen; and (h) continue the bidding, determine the successful bidder, cancel the sale of the lot, or reoffer and resell any lot in the event that there is an error or dispute related to bidding or the application of the reserve, whether during or after the auction. You must provide us with written notice within three (3) business days of the date of the auction if you believe that the auctioneer has accepted the successful bid in error. The auctioneer will consider the claim and decide in good faith if the sale of the lot is final, whether he/she will cancel the sale of the lot, or whether he/she will reoffer and resell the lot. The auctioneer’s decision in exercise of this discretion is final. This paragraph does not in any way affect our ability to cancel the sale of a lot under other applicable provisions of these Conditions of Sale, including the rights of cancellation set forth in sections B(1), D(6), E(2), and G(1). 3. BIDDING ON BEHALF OF THE SELLER The auctioneer may, at his/her sole option, bid on behalf of the seller up to one bidding increment before the reserve by making either consecutive or responsive bids. The auctioneer will not identify these as bids made on behalf of the seller. If a lot is offered without reserve, the auctioneer will open the bidding at a set increment lower than the lot’s low estimate and will solicit higher bids from that amount. If there are no bids on a lot, the auctioneer may deem the lot unsold. 4. SUCCESSFUL BIDS AND INVOICES Subject to paragraph C(2), the contract of sale between the seller and the successful bidder is formed when the final bid is accepted and the auctioneer’s hammer strikes. The successful bid price is the hammer price, and we will issue an invoice only to the registered bidder who made the successful bid. While we send out invoices by mail and/or email after the auction, we shall not be responsible for telling you whether your bid was successful. You should contact us immediately after the auction to find out the success of your bid in order to avoid having to pay storage charges. Please note that Hindman will not accept payments for purchased lots from any party other than the purchaser, unless otherwise agreed between the purchaser and Hindman prior to the sale. D. AFTER THE AUCTION 1. THE BUYER’S PREMIUM In addition to the hammer price, the successful bidder agrees to pay us a buyer’s premium on the hammer price of each lot sold. On all lots except for those in Coins, Medals & Banknotes; Sports Memorabilia; and Arms, Armor & Militaria auctions we charge twenty-six percent (26%) of the hammer price up to and including $1,000,000; twenty percent (20%) of any amount in excess of $1,000,001 up to and including $5,000,000; and fifteen percent (15%) of any amount in excess of $5,000,001. For all lots offered in Coins, Medals & Banknotes we charge a buyer’s premium of twenty-one percent (21%) of the hammer price. Sports Memorabilia; and Arms, Armor & Militaria auctions we charge a buyer’s premium of twenty percent (20%) of the hammer price. If the bidder bids through a third-party platform the bidder agrees to pay us a surcharge equal to the fee levied by the third-party platform. The third-party platform fee is in addition to the buyer’s premium. 2. TAXES The successful bidder is responsible for any applicable taxes, including any sales or use tax or equivalent tax wherever such taxes may arise on the hammer price, the buyer’s premium, and/or any other charges related to the lot. A sales or use tax is dependent upon a number of factors, including, but not limited to, our volume of sale and the place of delivery of the lot, regardless of the nationality or citizenship of the successful bidder. The applicable sales tax rate will be determined based upon the state, county, or locale to which the lot will be shipped or where it is picked-up in person. We collect sales tax in states where legally required. 3. MAKING PAYMENT (a) Immediately following the auction, you must pay the purchase price, consisting of the hammer price, plus the buyer’s premium, plus any applicable duties and sales, use, or other applicable taxes. Payment is due no later than by the end of the seventh (7th) calendar day following the date of the auction, which we refer to as the due date. (b) We will only accept payment from the registered successful bidder. Once issued, we cannot change the buyer’s name on an invoice or reissue the invoice in a different name. (c) You must pay for lots in US dollars in one of the following ways: (i) Wire transfer. (ii) Bank checks: You must make these payable to Hindman LLC, and we may impose other conditions. Once we have deposited your check, property cannot be released until five (5) business days have passed. (iii) Personal checks: You must make these payable to Hindman LLC, and they must be drawn from US dollar accounts from a US bank. The property will not be released until the check has cleared and the funds are received by us.
(iv) Credit card: Credit card payments may not exceed $10,000 and a convenience fee of 3% will be added to each credit card payment. (v) ACH Bank Transfer (d) You must quote your invoice number when making a payment. All payments sent by post must be sent to Hindman LLC, 1550 West Carroll Avenue, Chicago, IL 60607, ATTN: Client Accounting Department. 4. TRANSFERRING OWNERSHIP TO YOU You will not own the lot and title will not pass to you until we have received full payment in good funds of the purchase price, even in circumstances where we have released the lot to you. 5. TRANSFERRING RISK TO YOU Unless we have agreed otherwise with you, the risk in and responsibility for the lot will transfer to you from whichever is the earlier of the following: (a) when you collect the lot; or (b) the end of the thirtieth (30th) day following the date of the auction or, if earlier, the date the lot is taken into care by a third-party warehouse. 6. YOUR FAILURE TO PAY If you fail to pay us the purchase price in full in good funds by the due date, we will be entitled to do one or more of the following (as well as enforce any other rights and remedies we have by law) at our sole discretion: (a) We can charge interest from the due date at a rate of up to one and one-half percent (1.5%) per month on the unpaid amount due. (b) We can cancel the sale of the lot and sell the lot again, publicly or privately, on such terms as we believe appropriate, in which case you must pay us any shortfall between the amount you owe us and the resale price, plus all costs, expenses, losses, damages, and legal fees we incur due to the cancellation. (c) We can pay the seller the amount due to them, in which case you acknowledge and understand that we will have all the seller’s rights to pursue you for such amount. (d) We can hold you legally responsible for the amount you owe us and bring legal proceedings against you to recover the amount owed by you, plus other losses, interest, legal fees, and costs as allowed by law. (e) We can reveal your identity and contact details to the seller. (f) We can reject any bids made by or on behalf of you in future auctions or require you to provide us with a deposit before accepting any bids. (g) We can exercise all the rights and remedies of a person holding security over any property in our possession owned by you, whether by way of pledge, security interest, or in any other way as permitted by the law of the place where such property is located. You will be deemed to have granted such security to us and we may retain such property as collateral security for your obligations to us. (h) We can take any other action we deem necessary or appropriate. 7. SHIPPING, COLLECTION, AND STORAGE (a) You must collect purchased lots within thirty (30) days of the auction. We can assist in making shipping arrangements by suggesting art handlers, packers, transporters, or experts, but you must arrange all transport and shipping with them, and we are not responsible for their acts, failure to act, or neglect. Hindman has several salerooms throughout the country and the location of sales, or individual items may vary. It is important to check with our website and be aware of where each lot is located, for both viewing and for shipping. (b) If you do not collect any purchased lot within thirty (30) days following the auction, we may, at our sole option, (i) charge you storage and insurance costs; (ii) move the lot to another Hindman location or to a third-party warehouse, whereupon we will charge you transport costs, insurance costs, and administration fees for doing so, and you will be subject to the third-party storage warehouse’s standard terms and responsible for paying its standard fees and costs; or (iii) sell the lot in any commercially reasonable way we think appropriate. (c) In accordance with applicable state law, if you have paid for the lot in full but you do not collect the lot within the time specified by the law of the state where the auction takes place, we may charge you state sales tax for the lot. (d) Nothing in this paragraph is intended to limit our rights under paragraph D(6). 8. EXPORTING, IMPORTING, AND ENDANGERED SPECIES (a) The shipping of a lot is affected by United States export laws or the import laws of other countries. If you are outside the United States, then local laws may prevent you from importing a lot. You alone are responsible for seeking advice prior to bidding and meeting the requirements of any law or regulation applying to the export or import of a lot. (b) Lots made of or including (regardless of the percentage) endangered and other protected species of wildlife—such as, among other things, ivory, tortoiseshell, crocodile skin, rhinoceros horn, whalebone, certain species of coral, and Brazilian rosewood—may be subject to export controls in the US and import controls in other countries. You should check the relevant wildlife laws and regulations before bidding on any lot containing wildlife material if you plan to export the lot from the United States, import the lot into another country, or ship the lot between states. Your purchase of a lot containing endangered and other protected species of wildlife is at your own risk, and you shall be

responsible for any scientific test or other reports required for export from the United States or for shipment between states. We will not cancel your purchase and refund the purchase price if your lot may not be exported, imported, or shipped between states, or if it is seized for any reason by a government authority. It is your responsibility to determine and satisfy the requirements of any applicable laws or regulations relating to import, export, and/or interstate shipping of a lot containing endangered and other protected species of wildlife. E. WARRANTIES 1. SELLER’S WARRANTIES For each lot, the seller gives a warranty that the seller (a) is the owner of the lot or a joint owner of the lot acting with the permission of the other co-owners or, if the seller is not the owner or a joint owner of the lot, has the permission of the owner to sell the lot or the right to do so by law; and (b) has the right to transfer ownership of the lot to the buyer without any restrictions or claims by anyone else. If either of the above warranties are incorrect, the seller shall not have to pay more than the purchase price (as defined in paragraph D(3) above) paid by you to us. The seller will not be responsible to you for any reason for loss of profits or business, expected savings, loss of opportunity or interest, costs, damages, other damages, or expenses. The seller gives no warranty other than as set out above, and as far as the seller is allowed by law, all warranties from the seller to you, and all other obligations upon the seller that may be added to this agreement by law, are excluded. No employee or agent of Hindman is authorized to make a representation or provide other information, whether orally or in writing, that amends the seller’s warranties or creates an additional warranty on behalf of the seller with respect to a lot. Any such representation, other information, or additional warranty shall be null and void. 2. OUR LIMITED AUTHENTICITY WARRANTY Our limited authenticity warranty, which lasts for one (1) year from the date of a live auction or three (3) months from an online only auction, is that the lots in our sales are authentic as defined in paragraph H, below. You must notify Hindman regarding concerns of authenticity in writing within one (1) year of the date of a live auction or within three (3) months of the date of an online only auction. Following receipt of that written notification, subject to the terms below, Hindman will refund the purchase price paid by the client. The terms of this limited authenticity warranty are as follows: (a) It will be honored for claims notified in writing within a period of one (1) year from the date of a live auction or three (3) months from an online only auction. After such time, we will not be obligated to honor the limited authenticity warranty. (b) It is given only for information shown in UPPERCASE type in the first line of the catalogue description (the Heading). It does not apply to any information other than that in the Heading, even if it is shown in UPPERCASE type. (c) It does not apply to any Heading or part of a Heading that is qualified. “Qualified” means limited by a clarification in a lot’s catalogue description or by the use in a Heading of one of the terms listed in the definition of “qualified” provided in paragraph H, below. Qualified Headings are not covered at all by this limited authenticity warranty. (d) It applies to the Heading as amended by any saleroom notice. (e) It does not apply where scholarship has developed since the auction, leading to a change in generally accepted opinion. Further, it does not apply if the Heading either matched the generally accepted opinion of experts at the date of the auction or drew attention to any conflict of opinion. (f) It does not apply if the lot can only be shown not to be authentic by a scientific process that, on the date we published the catalogue, was not available or generally accepted for use, was unreasonably expensive or impractical, or was likely to have damaged the lot. (g) Its benefit is only available to the original buyer shown on the invoice for the lot, issued at the time of the sale, and only if, on the date of the notice of claim, the original buyer is the full owner of the lot and the lot is free from any claim, interest, or restriction by anyone else. The benefit of this limited authenticity warranty may not be transferred by the original buyer to anyone else. (h) In order to make a claim under the limited authenticity warranty, you must (i) give us written notice of your claim within one (1) year of the date of a live auction or three (3) months from an online only auction ; (ii) at our option, pay for and provide us with the written opinions of two recognized experts in the field, mutually agreed upon by you and us, confirming that the lot is not authentic (we reserve the right to obtain additional opinions at our expense); and (iii) return the lot at your expense to the saleroom from which you bought it in the condition it was in at the time of sale. (i) Your only right under this limited authenticity warranty is to cancel the sale and receive a refund of the purchase price paid by you to us. We will not, under any circumstances, be required to pay you more than the purchase price, nor will we be liable for any loss of profits or business, loss of opportunity or value, expected savings or interest, costs, damages, other damages, or expenses. (j) No employee or agent of Hindman is authorized to make a representation or provide additional information, whether orally or in writing, that amends the limited authenticity warranty or creates an additional warranty with respect to a lot. Any such representation, other information, or additional warranty shall be null and void.
3. ADDITIONAL WARRANTY FOR BOOKS If the lot is a book, then we give an additional warranty to the original buyer shown on the invoice for the lot issued at the time of the sale in the following circumstances: (a) We will refund the purchase price to the original buyer if we, in our sole discretion, are convinced that the book is defective in text or illustration, subject to the following terms: (i) This additional warranty does not apply to (A) the absence of blanks, half titles, tissue guards, or advertisements; or damage in respect of bindings, stains, spotting, marginal tears, or other defects not affecting the completeness of the text or illustration; (B) drawings, autographs, letters or manuscripts, signed photographs, music, atlases, maps, or periodicals; (C) books not identified by title; (D) lots sold without a printed estimate; (E) books that are described in the catalog as sold not subject to return; or (F) defects stated in any condition report or announced at the time of sale. (ii) To make a claim under this additional warranty, you must give written details of the defect within twenty-one (21) days of the date of the sale and return the lot within twenty-one (21) days of the date of the sale to the saleroom at which you bought it in the same condition as at the time of sale. (iii) Paragraphs E(2)(b), (c), (d), (e), (h), and (i) also apply to a claim under this additional warranty. (c) No employee or agent of Hindman is authorized to make a representation or provide other information, whether orally or in writing, that amends the additional warranty for books or creates an additional warranty with respect to a lot. Any such representation, other information, or additional warranty shall be null and void. 4. JEWELRY (a) Colored gemstones (such as rubies, sapphires, and emeralds) may have been treated to improve their appearance through methods such as heating and/or various clarity enhancements. These methods are considered common by the international jewelry trade but may make a gemstone more fragile and/or cause the gemstone to require special care over time. (b) All types of gemstones may have been improved by some method. You may request a gemological report for any item that does not have a report if the request is made to us at least three (3) weeks before the date of the auction and you pay the fee for the report. (c) We do not obtain a gemological report for every gemstone sold in our auctions. When we do get gemological reports from internationally accepted gemological laboratories, such reports are described in the catalogue. Reports from American gemological laboratories describe any improvement or treatment to the gemstone. Reports from European gemological laboratories describe any improvement or treatment only if we request that they do so, but they do confirm when no improvement or treatment has been made. Because of differences in approach and technology, laboratories may not agree on whether a gemstone has been treated, the amount of treatment, or whether that treatment is permanent. The gemological laboratories only report on the improvements or treatments known to them at the date they make the report. (d) For jewelry sales, estimates are based on the information in any gemological report. If no report is available, assume that the gemstones may have been treated or enhanced. 5. WATCHES AND CLOCKS (a) Almost all clocks and watches are repaired in their lifetime and may include parts that are not original. We do not give a warranty that any individual component part of any watch is authentic. Watchbands described as “associated” are not part of the original watch and may not be authentic. Clocks may be sold without pendulums, weights, or keys. (b) As collectors’ watches often have very fine and complex mechanisms, you are responsible for any general service, change of battery, or further repair work that may be necessary. We do not give a warranty that any watch is in good working order. Certificates are not available unless described in the catalogue. (c) Most wristwatches have been opened to find out the type and quality of movement. For that reason, wristwatches with water-resistant cases may not be waterproof, and we recommend you have them checked by a competent watchmaker before use. (d) Many of the watches offered for sale in this catalogue are pictured with straps made of endangered or protected animal materials such as alligator or crocodile skin. When straps are shown for display purposes only and are not for sale. We may remove and retain the strap prior to shipment from the sale site. Please check with the department for details on a lot with such a strap. 6. YOUR WARRANTIES You warrant to us and the seller that (a) the funds you use for payment are not connected with any criminal activity, including tax evasion, and neither are you under investigation, nor have you been charged with or convicted of money laundering, terrorist activities, or other crimes; (b) where you are bidding on behalf of another person, (i) you have conducted appropriate customer due diligence on the ultimate buyer(s) of the lot(s) in accordance with all applicable anti-money
F O R A D D I T I O N A L I M A G E S A N D L O T D E TA I L S V I S I T H I N D M A N A U C T I O N S . C O M 165
laundering and sanctions laws, you consent to us relying on this due diligence, you will retain for a period of not less than five (5) years the documentation evidencing the due diligence, and you will make such documentation promptly available for immediate inspection by an independent third-party auditor upon our written request to do so; (ii) the arrangements between you and the ultimate buyer(s) in relation to the lot or otherwise do not, in whole or in part, facilitate tax crimes; (iii) you do not know, and have no reason to suspect, that the funds used for payment are connected with or the proceeds of any criminal activity, including tax evasion, or that the ultimate buyer(s) are under investigation for, or have been charged with or convicted of, money laundering, terrorist activities, or other crimes. F. OUR LIABILITY TO YOU (a) We give no warranty in relation to any statement made, or information given, by us or our representatives or employees about any lot other than as set out in the limited authenticity warranty or in the additional warranty for books, and as far as we are allowed by law, all warranties and other terms that may be added to this agreement by law are excluded. The seller’s warranties contained in paragraph E(1) are their own, and we do not have any liability to you in relation to those warranties. (b) We are not responsible to you for any reason (whether for breaking this agreement or for any other matter relating to your purchase of, or bid for, any lot) other than in the event of fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation by us, or other than as expressly set out in these Conditions of Sale. (c) WE DO NOT GIVE ANY REPRESENTATION, WARRANTY, OR GUARANTEE OR ASSUME ANY LIABILITY OF ANY KIND IN RESPECT OF ANY LOT WITH REGARD TO MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, DESCRIPTION, SIZE, QUALITY, CONDITION, ATTRIBUTION, AUTHENTICITY, RARITY, IMPORTANCE, MEDIUM, PROVENANCE, EXHIBITION HISTORY, LITERATURE, OR HISTORICAL RELEVANCE. EXCEPT AS REQUIRED BY LOCAL LAW, ANY WARRANTY OF ANY KIND IS EXCLUDED BY THIS PARAGRAPH.

(e) We have no responsibility to any person other than a buyer in connection with the purchase of any lot.

If you do not want to be videotaped, you may decide to make a telephone or written bid or bid online instead.

COPYRIGHT We own the copyright in all images, illustrations, and written material produced by or for us relating to a lot, including the contents of our catalogues, unless otherwise noted therein.

PERSONAL INFORMATION We will hold and process your personal information in line with our privacy policy at www.hindmanauctions.com.
7.

No single or partial exercise of such right or remedy shall prevent or restrict the further exercise of that or any other right or remedy. 8. LAW AND DISPUTES This agreement, and any noncontractual obligations arising out of or in connection with this agreement, or any other rights you may have relating to the purchase of a lot will be governed by the laws of Illinois. You and we agree to try to settle the dispute by mediation submitted to JAMS, or its successor, for mediation in Illinois.

The language used in the arbitral proceedings shall be English. The arbitrator shall order the production of documents only upon a showing that such documents are relevant and material to the outcome of the dispute. The arbitration shall be confidential, except to the extent necessary to enforce a judgment or where disclosure is required by law. The arbitration award shall be final and binding on all parties involved. Judgment upon the award may be entered by any court having jurisdiction thereof or having jurisdiction over the relevant party or its assets. This arbitration and any proceedings conducted hereunder shall be governed by Title 9 (Arbitration) of the United States Code and by the United Nations Convention on the Recognition and Enforcement of Foreign Arbitral Awards of June 10, 1958.
