Information For Buyers 7. CONDITION REPORTS We may be able to assist buyers unable to view by providing a condition report, but these reports are based solely on our own opinion and are for guidance only and no responsibility is accepted for their accuracy. Intending buyers are strongly encouraged to view. (Please see our Conditions of Sale).
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.
8. ELECTRICAL GOODS Collectable items which are electrical are sold as ‘antiques’ only and if bought for use must be checked over for compliance with safety regulations by a qualified electrician first.
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.
9. 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.
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.
10. BIDDING Bidders are required to register before the sale commences and lots will be invoiced to the name and address on the registration form. You will need a bidding card which is available free of charge, upon production of current identification that can confirm your name and address (eg driving licence, passport, utility bill, but please note that we will not accept bank debit or credit cards as identification).Otherwise, a refundable CASH deposit of £50 must be paid, your deposit will be set against your invoice if you are successful with your bid, or refunded to you once we have established that no bids have been allocated to your bidding number.
4. BUYER’S PREMIUM The Conditions of Sale oblige buyers to pay a buyer’s premium at 15% on the hammer price of each lot purchased. In addition, VAT is chargeable on this premium (see below). Please see note under live bidding on the following page. 5. VAT (*) indicates that there is a VAT element payable by the purchaser at the standard rate within the hammer price as well as being payable on 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 on importation into the UK. Lots which appear without the above symbol indicate that no VAT is payable on the hammer price. This may be because such lots are sold using the Auctioneers’ Margin Scheme and, if so, it should be noted that the VAT included within the Premium is not recoverable as input tax.
11. COMMISSION BIDDING Commission bids may be left with the auctioneers indicating the maximum amount to be bid excluding buyer’s 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, e-mail or fax. In order for Commission and Telephone Bids to be operated, we will require your credit/debit card details. Confirmation of any bids taken over the telephone must be made in writing (fax, email or post) by 9am on the day of the sale.
6. CONDITIONS OF LOTS Please note carefully the exclusion of liability for the condition of lots contained in the Conditions of Sale. Intending buyers have ample opportunity for inspection of goods and 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 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). MORPHETS Fine Art & Antique Auctioneers since 1895
12. METHODS OF PAYMENT Goods can be paid for during the sale. We accept the following forms of payment:Cash: (up to a limit of £10,000 due to money laundering regulations) Cheques: goods will only be released on cleared cheques Debit Card: Cardholder Not Present transactions subject to maximum £500 limit 2

ARTISTS RESALE RIGHTS In accordance with Artists Resale Rights Regulations 2006, all lots marked ARR which sell for €1,000 or more are subject to a resale royalty charge ("Royalty"). This Royalty is payable by the Bidder. The Royalty will be charged at a rate of 4% of the total hammer price (exclusive of Bidder's premium which is payable under clause 8a) for lots selling for amounts up to €50,000. For lots selling in excess of €50,001, the Royalty shall be calculated at a reduced rate (details available on request). The Royalty is not subject to VAT and is payable in sterling calculated on the day of sale at the prevailing rate of exchange. Payment shall be passed directly to the Design and Artists Copyright Society (DACS), 33 Great Sutton Street, London EC1V 0DX. For further information please contact the Auctioneers or DACS on 0845 4103410 or visit their website at www.dacs.org.uk
NOTICE TO BUYERS OF GEMSTONES/JEWELS Many coloured gemstones have been subjected to a variety of treatments designed to enhance their appearance, for example heating is regularly used to improve colour or transparency in rubies and sapphires. Other treatments such as oiling, enhance the clarity of emeralds. Other coloured gemstones may have undergone permanent or semi-permanent treatments such as dyeing, irradiation, coating and impregnation, which may require further re-treatment in order to retain their appearance. The jewellery trade generally accepts these treatments. Prospective purchasers should assume all gemstones will have been treated unless statements are made to the contrary. Recent advancements in technology have led to some diamonds being treated in a variety of ways designed to enhance their appearance. These treatments can include fracture filling, laser drilling, irradiation and coating. Every effort is made to identify such treatments, however it is not possible for Morphets to guarantee that all lots containing diamonds are free of these enhancements.
MORE ABOUT MORPHETS Morphets offer a complete auction sales and valuation service. Call in to discuss your particular requirements with our valuers. Valuations can be prepared for Probate, Insurance, Family Division etc. for private clients, executors and trustees. Most valuations can be started within seven days.
All dimensions and estimated weights of gemstones have been determined without unsetting the stones and are therefore only approximate because of limitations imposed by the mount. Estimated weights are normally calculated by applying standard formulae to the measurements taken. 3

hs. ms. ls. bs.
ULLAGE describes the space between the bottom of the cork and the level of the wine in the bottle. Where not mentioned, it should be assumed that the levels and labelling are good. For Bordeaux, Port and other wines in bottles with defined shoulders the ullage/level is shown, if relevant, by its position in the bottle. Our interpretations are as follows: u. n.
ullage level within neck; the normal level of young wines bn. bottom neck; perfectly acceptable for any age of wine vts. very top shoulder; completely acceptable for any age of wine
ts.
top shoulder; usual level for wines over 15 years old hs. high shoulder; typical reduction through the cork, usually no problem ms. mid shoulder; usually some deterioration of the cork and therefore some variation
ls. bs.
low shoulder; more variable and therefore carries a lower estimate bottom shoulder; very variable, usually a rare or interesting wine at a low estimate
For Burgundy, German and other wines in bottles with sloping necks the ullage is shown in centimetres, measured from the base of the cork. CAUTION 1. Though every effort is made to describe or measure the levels of older vintages, levels may change between cataloguing and sales. This may be caused by the ageing of the cork or by a change in the temperature of the storage conditions or the shipment of the wine. 2. There is a risk of cork failure in old wines and due allowance must be made for this by the potential buyer. 3. It is Morphets Of Harrogate’s policy to open original cases and to describe the level of wine, label and capsule condition, except for wines of vintages from the last fifteen years, with the exception of high value wines, at the discretion of our wine department. 4. Morphets Of Harrogate will not enter in to any price negotiation or credit after the delivery is made and returns will not be accepted. 5. Under no circumstances will substitutes be provided by Morphets Of Harrogate; for example in the case of breakage, or error of description. 6. Labels may be stained where wines have been stored in damp conditions. It should be noted that such storage conditions are generally beneficial.

FINE WINE, VINTAGE PORT AND WHISKY Wednesday 25th November Commencing at 6pm
IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOR BUYERS PURCHASING WINE IN BOND Some lots in this auction are being sold in bond but the buyer can choose to take the wine duty paid, in which case it will be delivered to Morphets for collection. If taken in bond the buyer will not pay VAT on the hammer price. VAT will only be charged on the buyer’s premium. If taken duty paid the buyer will pay duty of £24.60 (currently) per case of 12 bottles. If taken duty paid the buyer will also pay VAT (20%) on the hammer price, VAT (20%) on the buyer’s premium and VAT (20%) on the duty. All this will be invoiced by Morphets to the buyer and this invoice must be paid before Morphets can instruct the bonded warehouse to release the wines. If buyers wish to take their wine duty paid in this way they must advise Morphets on the day of sale after which time it will fall to the purchaser to make their own arrangements.

RUDOLF HELMUT SAUTER (German/British 1895-1977) Rudolf Sauter was the son of Georg Sauter an established artist of German origin. Rudolf Sauter was educated at Harrow before studying art in London and Munich. He was an internee during WWI at the Alexandra Palace Internment Camp in North London and then Frith Hill Camp in Surrey. During his time there he documented his stay by creating pen and ink drawings of his surroundings and the people with whom he shared his life. His work has been exhibited at both the Royal Academy and the Paris Salon. A fire in the 1980s, shortly after Sauter’s death, destroyed many of his works and it is unusual for a collection to be offered at auction.
