Homer Edward Noble (1916-2007) After growing up on a small rural sheep ranch in Western Colorado, Homer E. Noble lived a storied life of courage, determination and generosity. As part of the “Greatest Generation,” he joined the Marine Corps during WWII and survived the horrendous battles at Okinawa. His bravery earned both a Purple Heart and Bronze Star. Following the war, Homer’s entrepreneurial spirit soon became apparent as he began a lifetime of investments in land and other natural resources mostly oil, gas, coal and gold. His desire was to see nature protected and land nurtured as demonstrated by his Conservation Easement in Western Colorado. The development of his ranch in Evergreen, Colorado became Soda Creek, large acreage luxury homes west of Denver that left nature undisturbed. While Homer enjoyed many business ventures nothing compared to his love of horses. He grew up with horses and never lost his involvement with them, both riding and later as an owner of choice racehorses. His horses competed at Del Mar, Santa Anita, Belmont and, most notably in the Kentucky Derby where his horse “Rumbo” placed second in 1980. But quite fortuitously, he became a connoisseur of fine art, particularly art with horses. His impressive collection included that of major American artists as well as pre-Columbian art and a significant array of bronze sculptures. Along with his wife Stephanie, Homer had an eye for high quality pieces, many of which now comprise the selections shown in this offering. Many featured lots within this sale, including View of Mount Zion by Thomas Moran (lot 314), Indian Scout and Horse, Illustrated Letter by Charles Marion Russell (lot 397) and the selection of works by Randall Davey (lots 352-354 and 356-358) come from Mr. Noble’s distinguished collection. His eclectic interests could be seen in his large personal library ranging from history and biography to nature and, of course, horses. He had lived such an interesting life and had met so many unusual people that he had an inexhaustible treasure trove of stories to tell, much to the delight of his friends and family. For those persons who had the good fortune to know Homer E. Noble, he was unforgettable and is greatly missed.

GEORGE MONTGOMERY Important works, such as Mount McKinley from the South Side, were originally a part of the collection of Hollywood Western film actor, producer and director George Montgomery and are being sold to support the care of collections and acquisitions funds of Palm Springs Art Museum. Montgomery was born near Great Falls, Montana and was well known for his work as a rugged cowboy or ranch hand in over 80 Western films and television programs in the 1930s through the 1970s. His early film credits include, Davey Crockett, Indian Scout (1950), The Texas Rangers (1951), Jack McCall Desperado (1953), and Gun Dual in Durango (1957). He went on to appear in numerous television shows including episodes of Wagon Train, Bonanza and the Six Million Dollar Man. As a Western renaissance man, George Montgomery was a skilled wood worker and later expanded his artistic interest to include bronze work. He was self-taught and sculpted upwards of 50 bronze sculptures of subjects such as his friends and colleagues John Wayne, Clint Eastwood, Gene Autry and Ronald Reagan.

Thomas Moran visited Zion, then in the Utah Territory, only once, in July, 1873, while on his way to join John Wesley Powell’s U.S. Geological Survey Expedition to the Grand Canyon. The artist would travel to and paint the Grand Canyon many times, often annually, but Zion was somewhat off the beaten path and not as readily accessible by train. Still, scenes from Zion in watercolor and oil punctuate Moran’s entire career. Moran’s onsite sketches and small watercolors of the Kolob and Zion Canyons, and photographs taken by expedition photographer John K. Hillers proved an ongoing wellspring of inspiration for the artist. It is as if Zion, for Moran, was at once a place and a kind of unfinished canvas in a recurring dream, one on which Moran could project and paint an inner vision, a dreamscape, as it were, of a remote, otherworldly West.

Thomas Moran
(American, 1837-1926) View of Zion, 1919 oil on canvas signed T. Moran and dated (lower right) 10 x 14 inches Property from the Collection of Homer E. Noble, Denver, Colorado Provenance: Saks Galleries, Denver, Colorado This painting will be included in Phyllis Braff, Melissa Speidel Webster and Stephen Good’s forthcoming catalogue raisonne of the artist’s works. $100,000 - 200,000
Under the influence of two giants of British art, painter J.M.W. Turner and philosopher and art critic John Ruskin, Moran never strove for fidelity to the scene in his landscapes. Echoing Turner and Ruskin, Moran averred, “I place no value on literal transcripts from Nature. My general scope is not realistic; all my tendencies are toward idealization… Topography in art is valueless.” Instead, from his earliest sketches in Utah—and everywhere else—Moran sought poetic interpretations. If poetry required the amendment or rearrangement of elements in the natural world, so be it. Art above all. Nevertheless, Moran’s interpretations were—and remain—crucial in the drive to capture the popular imagination of the West. With his engravings in periodicals of the day and the unparalleled Prang lithographs, one can ask, in all seriousness, “Would there be a National Park System without Thomas Moran’s visions of wilderness?” Zion became Zion National Park, Utah’s first, in 1919. It was timely, and perhaps only natural, that Thomas Moran would paint View of Zion, 1919 to remember his time there and commemorate the occasion. Aspects of many of his earlier renderings of Zion appear in the painting. The geological formation right of center recalls Moran’s watercolor, Coburn’s Butte, South Utah, 1873, while its shape and the river snaking at its foot harkens back to an 1874 Utah watercolor, Valley of Babbling Waters. The brume from the 1892 painting Mist in Kanab Canyon softens Moran’s palette and the oncoming storm at left and the shadows it casts hint at the drama of the monumental Grand Canyon canvases. It is as if, just as those first sketches became paintings, those first paintings, in their turn, furnished the reference material for his aesthetic imagination in subsequent works. Paintings, rather than place, begat paintings. Once Zion becomes Thomas Moran’s Zion, a place filtered through his art, it becomes its own Zion to anyone and everyone who visits the park. You might say Moran’s Zion becomes America’s Zion. View of Zion, 1919, painted just as place became park, is, however, unpeopled and all but devoid of vegetation save for the suggestion of mossiness in the shallow hill at right. Moran had once said, “Southern Utah is where Nature reveals herself in all her tumultuous and awe-inspiring grandeur…” one that “is worth going a long distance to see.” View of Zion, 1919 emerges, in the end, as a temptation to adventurous spirits, to a place that is both geographic and geological and yet, beyond geography and geology, a place in the mind’s eye when we are far from the wilderness, calling out to us, “Ollie ollie oxenfree, if you dare you might find me…” - James D. Balestrieri

Alfred von Wierusz Kowalski (Polish, 1849-1915) Return from the Hunt, 1876 oil on panel signed Alfred Wierusz Kowalski (lower right) 12 x 14 inches
Property from Palm Springs Art Museum. Sold to Support the Care of Collections and the George Montgomery Fund for Acquisitions Provenance: Gift of the George Montgomery Trust to Palm Springs Art Museum Lot Note: This painting is inscribed on the verso, From my collection, George Montgomery, purchased for me by my wife “Dinah” on our 1st wedding anniversary, 1944. George Montgomery was married to Dinah Shore, the American singer, actress and television personality, from 1943 until 1963. Born Frances Rose Shore, she did embrace the stage name Dinah until 1940, accounting for the quotations on the inscription.
Known for their realism, painterly brushwork and use of dramatic chiaroscuro, the Munich School was a highly regarded group of artists in late 19th century Europe. Associated with the Royal Academy of Fine Arts of Munich, the art that emerged from this association of painters depicted scenes of landscapes, history, battle and everyday life with drama and intricate detail. Alfred Wierusz Kowalski (Polish, 1849-1915) was perhaps the most popular Polish artist of this group. Born in Suwalki, Poland, the pastoral setting of much of Kowalski’s oeuvre was inspired more by the scenery of his childhood than by his environs in Germany. However, his choice of subject matter – hunting, traveling, horse riding – along with his bold brushwork, emotional compositions and attentiveness to detail made him a success amongst collectors and critics alike. Kowalski’s skill earned him exhibitions in Munich, Berlin, Dresden, Paris and Vienna, as well as an honorary position at the Royal Academy. At first glance, Return from the Hunt is a rather simple scene, with a hunter on horseback accompanied by his two loyal dogs. However, upon closer inspection, the scene becomes a bit more dramatic. Situated in a desolate landscape, the hunter stares ahead with a look of sheer defeat, as if he has been totally drained from his efforts. His face is deeply saddened, his eyes sunken, his expression dazed; even his horse appears exhausted. One small fox is his only bounty from a long, cold day on the hunt. In the background, his companion, or perhaps his competition, appears to have had even less luck. The composition – his choices in color palette, the arrangement and realism of the figures as well as detailed facial expression on the hunter – turns an everyday scene of pastoral life into a possibility of a more dismal scene. Return from the Hunt demonstrates the aesthetics of the Munich School through a scene that may have been pulled directly from Kowalski’s childhood in Poland. As a viewer we can never know exactly what happened on that hunt. Kowalski’s skillful artistry, however, gives us just enough information to understand that there is more to the scene than what meets the eye.

Widely recognized as the premier painter of North American wildlife, Carl Rungius was born in Germany in 1869 and classically trained at the Royal Academy of Arts in Berlin. At the Academy, he specialized in animal art, often sketching inhabitants at the zoo. Rungius first traveled to the United States in 1894 to accompany his uncle on a Maine moose hunt. After the hunt, he decided to remain in the States. He soon found the opportunity to travel to Wyoming’s fabled Wind River Range in 1895.

Property from Palm Springs Art Museum. Sold to Support the Care of Collections and the George Montgomery Fund for Acquisitions Provenance: Gift of the George Montgomery Trust to Palm Springs Art Museum $200,000 - 300,000
Rungius was amazed at the beauty of the rugged range and at the abundance of wildlife. Over the next fifteen years, he visited the Winds repeatedly in the summer and fall to explore, hunt, and sketch. Winters were spent in New York City, where he created finished canvases using an increasingly large collection of field studies and research material generated during his annual excursions. In New York, Rungius met leading figures in the burgeoning world of conservation, including Theodore Roosevelt and William Temple Hornaday, head of the New York Zoological Society. These luminaries lauded Rungius’s unparalleled talent and helped him create valuable connections that would lead him even farther into the field. One such connection was naturalist Charles Sheldon, who invited Rungius on a four-month long expedition to the Yukon in 1904. In the Yukon, Rungius saw multiple caribou in the wild. He saw even more caribou after 1910, when he started traveling to Banff, in Alberta, Canada, for the summer and fall seasons. At this point, caribou begin to appear regularly in his work. Banff became a second home to Rungius, where he eventually built a house and studio, dubbed The Paintbox. He returned to Banff almost every year until his death in 1959. In Carl Rungius: Painter of the Western Wilderness, authors Jon Whyte and E. J. Hart noted that Sheldon said, “Caribou are pigs!” meaning they were not the most exciting game to hunt. However, Rungius appreciated their intricate antlers and bold coloration, finding them perfect subjects to paint. Mountain Caribou shows Rungius’s strong sense of design coupled with his knowledge of anatomy born of years of experience in the field. Mountain Caribou, as a species, prefer forested areas and once ranged into Washington and Idaho, but now exist mainly north of the Canadian border. In this painting, Rungius sets the caribou in a clearing amidst a beautiful pine forest, an apt depiction of their habitat. He adds a few boulders in the foreground, one of his signature elements. Misty mountains in the background complete the picture. - Adam Duncan Harris, Ph.D. Grainger/Kerr of the Carl Rungius Catalogue Raisonné, an Independent Project of the National Museum of Wildlife Art

RANDALL DAVEY A protege of Robert Henri and the New York Ashcan School, Randall Davey’s work came to prominence in the 1913 Armory Show that made great modernist waves in the United States. At Henri’s urging, in 1919 Davey, along with painter John Sloan and their wives, took a drive from New York to Santa Fe. Davey was so taken with the people and landscape of New Mexico that he bought an old mill which became his home and base of operations throughout his career. Less well known is Davey’s enthusiasm for horses, horse racing, and polo—and his paintings in the genre. In 1910, Davey traveled extensively in Europe with Henri and this trip may well have provided the source material for Rearing Horse Cheltenham, which depicts a moment at the famous British racecourse, and Longchamps, Before the Races, in which an intense spectator looks back at the viewer while jockeys, trainers, and horses prepare for a day at the races at the celebrated Paris course. In 1924, and for six summers thereafter, Davey taught at the Broadmoor Art Academy in Colorado Springs, bringing the Ashcan aesthetic, in which color harmonizes in a musical manner, to Colorado’s painters. At the same time, Davey enjoyed the resort atmosphere of the Broadmoor and Colorado Springs and often played polo with Spencer Penrose, a mining magnate and philanthropist who had donated his residence in order to provide the Broadmoor Art Academy with a home. Girls at the Races and Girls on the Beach show the artist’s aesthetic at work. Color and light harmonize and link elements in the works. Strong paint movement and kinetic brushwork move the viewer’s eye, allowing Davey to eliminate unnecessary detail and impart a sense of motion to the works. Davey places us at the scene, in the scene. We notice his compositions even as he does, almost by accident. In Girls at the Races, for example, the fence bisects—almost exactly—the shallow foreground, where the three women stand—one might say, pose—from the course, where horses and jockeys mill about. White sunlight on the woman at center transforms her into a classical alabaster bust, a figure of mythical desire. All three seem to want to be noticed, but all eyes, other than ours, are on the track. Rearing Horse Cheltenham, on the other hand, contrasts the inner wildness of the horse with the rituals, traditions, and fashions of the sport. Davey seems to suggest that culture cannot entirely tame nature. The unexpected is to be expected on the racecourse—and that is part of the thrill. - James D. Balestrieri

(British/American, 1829-1908) Indian on Horseback Amongst Sequoias oil on canvas signed T. Hill (lower right) 39 x 27 1/2 inches Property from the Estate of Max and Judith Benton, Prescott, AZ Provenance: Sullivan Goss Fine Art Gallery, Santa Barbara, California $30,000 - 50,000
Although he was born in England and spent much of his young adult life on the East coast of the United States, Thomas Hill’s (British/American, 1829-1908) greatest source of inspiration was the landscape of the American West. Revered by collectors of the Hudson River School and Western art alike, Thomas Hill’s paintings illustrate the vast beauty and grandeur of the American landscape. Sketching trips to the White Mountains of New Hampshire early in his career aligned Hill with members of the Hudson River School who valued the practice of plein-air painting. Throughout his career, Hill would use the technique of oil sketching en plein-air – creating small, sketch-like oil paintings while immersed in the scenery – to document the sources of his inspiration. Like many other Americans, Hill moved his family to California in 1861 in search of prosperity and new sources of inspiration. It was with this change of scenery that Thomas Hill developed into the artist we revere as a great American landscape painter. The rising mountains, rolling hills, towering forests and lush scenery were his muses and his work was driven by his absolute awe of nature. In his lifetime, Thomas Hill’s monumental landscape paintings were well received, earning him comparison to Albert Bierstadt. His patrons included some of the most important figures in 19th-century California business and society, including E.B Crocker, William Ralston, D.O. Mills and Leland Stanford. In his Indian on Horseback Amongst the Sequoias, Hill beautifully depicts the overwhelming size, vastness and splendor of the Sequoia National Forest of California. Though a more intimate scene than many of his works, this image delivers the same sense of monumentality that we see in his depictions of the Yosemite landscape. The size and density of the trees dwarves the figures of the Native Americans making their camp and illustrates just how small humans really are compared to nature. Hill’s technique of detailing the figures in the foreground, while placing slightly less emphasis on the background, helps to show just how massive and lush the forest really is. This is a technique that Hill employed often in his work, almost as if implying that the grandness of nature is too large to depict precisely or to understand fully. Hill was driven by his own experiences within the natural world, by his own sense of smallness amongst the spectacular, sprawling landscapes. Indian on Horseback Amongst the Sequoias encourages the viewer to feel totally immersed in the scenery and experience the sense of awe and wonder that drove Thomas Hill to create his renowned works of art.

The Past Down from Yellowstone “This painting depicts the Kiowa leaving the ancestral homeland near the headwaters of the Yellowstone River in western Montana. From here, the Kiowa migrated eastward to the Black Hills before finally settling on the Great Plains. Being attentive to historical detail, Larsen is careful not to include a horse, as the animal had not yet been introduced to the Kiowa at the time of their migration. Larsen’s detailed rendering of the clothing adds vitality to the work and is also historical in depiction.” The Past Kiowa Sundance “The most sacred of Kiowa ceremonies, the Sundance, is said to have taken place at Quartz Mountain. In this painting, the Sundance “pledge” or participant stands inside a cottonwood arbor painted with white clay and Kiowa symbols. Larsen also includes other symbolic attributes in this work, such as the sage at the head and wrists of the pledge and the eagle bone whistles worn by both the pledge and the elder next to him.” Please note: Lot is located in and will ship from Cincinnati, Ohio $3,000 - 5,000

These renowned horsemen were comprised of Kiowa leaders from ten different clans, each of whom was responsible for carrying one of the ten sacred Kiowa medicine bundles.” The Past Black Leggings Society “In this work, Larsen portrays four members of the Kiowa Black Leggings Society, a group of Kiowa individuals who are veterans of World War II, the Korean War and the Vietnam War. The Kiowa elders who are the subject of this painting are members of the Palmer family of Carnegie, Oklahoma. Gus Palmer, Sr. revived this warrior society in 1957. Each year, the Black Leggings society visits the Oklahoma Summer Arts Institute to present the colors in a ceremony prior to student performances.” Please note: Lot is located in and will ship from Cincinnati, Ohio $3,000 - 5,000

The Future in the Studio “In this work, Larsen offers the viewer a peek into a dance class at the inaugural Oklahoma Summer Arts Institute, where students were taught by America’s first prima ballerina, Maria Tallchief. The painting depicts Tallchief leading a rehearsal of a ballet choreographed by her former husband, George Balanchine. By hiring exceptional faculty, such as Tallchief, its first year, the Arts Institute set a high standard that would become a hallmark of the program.” The Future Visit to Rainy Mountain “In this work, Larsen pays tribute to creative writing and theater by commemorating a visit to nearby Rainy Mountain during the Summer Arts Institute. The painting depicts acting instructors Jane Alexander and Ed Sherin, along with other faculty, staff and students, listening intently to poetry instructor N. Scott Momaday. A Pulitzer Prize winning Kiowa-Cherokee writer, Momaday wrote The Way to Rainy Mountain (1976), which details the history of the Kiowas, beginning in their ancestral Montana home and ending with their Great Plains resettlement near Rainy Mountain, located just east of Quartz Mountain.” Please note: Lot is located in and will ship from Cincinnati, Ohio $3,000 - 5,000

Guide for Prospective Sellers Evaluation of Property If you have property you wish to sell, please call our Consignment Department at 312.280.1212 to arrange for a consultation. At that time, you may make an appointment to bring your property or photographs, along with any other pertinent information, to Hindman LLC and we will be happy to provide you with complimentary estimates and advice. If you have a large collection, an appointment may be made to evaluate the property on-site. Fees for on-site visits may vary. Standard Commission Rates Our standard rate of commission is equal to ten percent (10%) of the hammer price on each lot sold for $5,001 or more; and twenty-five percent (25%) of the hammer price on each lot sold for less than $5,001, with a minimum commission of $75 per lot sold. If your property fails to reach the reserve price agreed upon between you and Hindman LLC, you may be obligated to pay a reduced commission rate of five percent (5%) of the reserve price. Shipping Arrangements Hindman LLC can advise you as to how to have your property delivered to our galleries. Packing, shipping and insurance are payable by the seller. In certain instances, packing and shipping costs may be paid by Hindman LLC and deducted from the proceeds of the sale. We may recommend packers and shippers, but we are not responsible for their acts or omissions. Appraisals Appraisals can be arranged for insurance, donation, estate tax, family division or other purposes. Appraisal fees vary according to circumstances. Please contact our Estates and Appraisals Department at 312.334.4232 for further information.
GUIDE FOR PROSPECTIVE BUYERS 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. 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. 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. 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.
Bidding at Auction The highest bidder acknowledged by the auctioneer will be the purchaser. In addition to the hammer price, the buyer agrees to pay Hindman LLC a buyer’s premium as well as any applicable taxes. Bidding Increments Bidding generally opens at half the low estimate and advances in the following order, although the auctioneer may vary the bidding increments during the course of the auction. The standard bidding increments are:
$0 - $500 ........................................ $25 $500 - $1,000 ..................................... $50 $1,000 - $2,000 ................................... $100 $2,000 - $5,000 ................................... $250 $5,000 - $10,000 ................................. $500 $10,000 - $20,000 .............................. $1,000 $20,000 - $50,000 .............................. $2,500 $50,000 - $100,000 ............................ $5,000 $100,000 - $200,000 .......................... $10,000 Above > $200,000 .... At Auctioneer’s Discretion
In-House Bidding Our auctions are free and open to the public with no obligation for attendees to bid. Registration requires your full contact information, photo identification, credit card information, your signature and agreement to the Conditions of Sale.. If you are the successful bidder, your paddle number and the hammer price will be announced by the auctioneer. Live Bid Online Hindman LLC allows absentee and live bidding through our website at hindmanauctions.com as well as absentee and live bidding through third party online bidding providers which vary by sale. For more information regarding online bidding please visit our website at hindmanauctions.com. Absentee Bidding If you are unable to attend an auction, you may place an absentee bid, either through our website at hindmanauctions.com or through the bid form provided at the back of this catalogue. An absentee bid is the highest price you are willing to pay exclusive of buyer’s premium and applicable sales tax. Hindman LLC will exercise absentee bids at no additional charge. Absentee bids are always confidential, and bids are executed at the lowest price possible by the auctioneer according to reserves and competing bids. Telephone Bidding You may register telephone bid requests either through our website at hindmanauctions.com or through the bid form provided at the back of this catalogue. Upon registering for a telephone bid, you will be called on the day of the auction by a Hindman representative approximately five lots before your item is scheduled to be sold. They will communicate to you the bidding activity and will relay your bids to the auctioneer at your discretion. Please note we can only accept telephone bids for lots with a low estimate of $300 or above unless otherwise noted online. Telephone bids may be requested up to 2 hours prior to the auction start time. Tax Exempt Notice Lots marked with an asterisk (*) are tax exempt as permitted by law. Updated 8/13

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. 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. 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. 2. 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. 3. 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.
4. 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. 5. 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 in the back of our catalogues, 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. 6. 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 $100 authorization hold on the card that will remain until it falls off, usually within 48 hours.
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. 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-only Auctions. Bids may only be submitted on our website or through third-party bidding sites 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 approximately fifty percent (50%) of the lot’s low estimate; where necessary, will lower the asking bid until a bid is received; 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.
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, we charge twenty-five percent (25%) of the hammer price up to and including $400,000; twenty percent (20%) of any amount in excess of $400,001 up to and including $4,000,000; and twelve percent (12%) of any amount in excess of $4,000,001. 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.

Once we have deposited your check, property cannot be released until five (5) business days have passed.

All payments sent by post must be sent to Hindman LLC, 1338 West Lake Street, 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 onehalf 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.

(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.

(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.

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 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.

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

We will not be responsible to you for any reason for loss of profits or business, loss of opportunity or value, expected savings or interest, costs, damages, or expenses.

1. OUR ABILITY TO CANCEL In addition to the other rights of cancellation contained herein, we can cancel a sale of a lot if (i) any of your warranties in paragraph E(4) are not correct; (ii) we reasonably believe that completing the transaction is, or may be, unlawful; or (iii) we reasonably believe that the sale places us or the seller under any liability to anyone else or may damage our reputation. 2. RECORDINGS We may videotape and/or audio record proceedings at any auction. We will keep any personal information confidential, except to the extent that disclosure is required by law. If you do not want to be videotaped, you may decide to make a telephone or written bid or bid online instead. Unless we agree otherwise in writing, you may not videotape or record proceedings at any auction. 3. 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. You cannot use them without our prior written permission. We make no representation and offer no guarantee that the buyer of a lot will gain any copyright or other reproduction rights. 4. ENFORCING THIS AGREEMENT If a court finds that any part of this agreement is invalid, illegal, or impossible to enforce, that part of the agreement will be treated as being deleted, and the rest of this agreement will not be affected. 5. TRANSFERRING YOUR RIGHTS AND RESPONSIBILITIES You may not grant a security over or transfer your rights or responsibilities under these terms unless we have given our written permission.

PERSONAL INFORMATION We will hold and process your personal information in line with our privacy policy at www.hindmanauctions.com. 7. WAIVER No failure or delay to exercise any right or remedy contained herein shall constitute a waiver of that or any other right or remedy, nor shall it prevent or restrict the further exercise of that or any other right or remedy. 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.
