P R O P E R T Y F R O M T h e J o h n W. G r u n d C o l l ect i o n of W e s ter n A rt John Grund was a fourth generation Denver native whose love for the Colorado mountains began at an early age. His family was actively involved in the Colorado Mountain Club, which was founded in 1912. He spent much of his youth skiing and mountain climbing, which contributed significantly to his love for the natural beauty of Colorado. As a child, John was determined to follow in his mother’s footsteps and climb all fifty-four peaks in Colorado. He undoubtedly would have achieved this, but a trampoline accident left him a partially-recovered quadriplegic at the age of 17. John never let this accident prevent him from pursuing his passions; he spent many years skiing as part of Winter Park’s program for skiers with disabilities. John attended Pomona College, earned a Master’s degree in English from the University of Washington, and graduated from the University of Colorado School of Law. John amazed everyone who knew him with his energy, keen intellect, wry sense of humor, and vast interests, including law, sports, literature, art and music. John received numerous awards for his leadership, professionalism and contributions to the legal community, including the
John W. Grund Excellence in Leadership Award, the President’s Professionalism Award, the DRI Service Award, the Colorado Super Lawyer and the Best Lawyers in America. As a young lawyer, John began to collect art that reflected his love of nature and depicted the majesty of the Colorado mountains. He greatly admired the work of Charles Partridge Adams, a Colorado landscape artist. The artist spent summers in his studio in Estes Park painting many of the mountain ranges John had climbed in his youth. After John’s death, as a tribute to his love of the work of Charles Partridge Adams, his wife donated one of his paintings to the Denver Art Museum. John was also passionate about collecting works by Gerard Curtis Delano. John loved the rich palette of colors Delano used in his works and the dignity with which he portrayed the Navajos. John loved sharing his art collection with friends, family and clients. We are honored to have the opportunity to work with the property from John W. Grund’s collection of Western art and present this sale of his collection.
John’s love of nature and the mountains is best captured in a poem he wrote while attending Pomona College.
Let my part in the earth be high and removed, some secluded glen in my Colorado Rockies.
And not too deep; I want to mingle with the roots of pines, be close enough to enjoy spring showers. May the grass that grows over me breathe with the same freedom I once did, yield to the winds of force and fruition, reveling in the splendor of awakening maturity.
All I ask is that you place an enduring rock above me, to let others know the meadow’s mine. 4/8/71 By John Walter Grund May 15, 1950 - December 24, 2012

AS AGENT The lots listed in this catalogue will be offered by Leslie Hindman Auctioneers, Inc. as owner or as agent for consignor(s) subject to the following terms and conditions. By bidding at auction you agree to be bound by these Conditions of Sale.
BEFORE THE SALE Prospective buyers are strongly advised to personally examine any property in which they are interested before the auction takes place. Condition reports are usually available on request, on lots with a low estimate of $300 and above. All lots are sold “AS IS” and without recourse and neither Leslie Hindman Auctioneers, Inc. nor its consignor(s) makes any warranties or representations, express or implied with respect to such lots. Neither Leslie Hindman Auctioneers, Inc. nor its consignor(s) makes any express or implied warranty or representation of any kind or nature with respect to merchantability, fitness for purpose, correctness of the catalogue or other description of the physical condition, size, quality, rarity, importance, medium, material, genuineness, attribution, provenance, period, culture, source, origin, exhibitions, literature or historical significance of any lot sold. The absence of any reference to the condition of a lot does not imply that the lot is in perfect condition or completely free from wear and tear, imperfections or the effects of aging. No statement, whether written or oral, and whether made in the catalogue, or in supplements to the catalogue, an advertisement, a bill of sale, a salesroom posting or announcement, the remarks of an auctioneer, or otherwise, shall be deemed to create any warranty, representation or assumption of liability. Leslie Hindman Auctioneers, Inc. and its consignor(s) make no warranty or representation, express or implied, that the purchaser will acquire any copyright or reproduction rights to any lot sold. Leslie Hindman Auctioneers Inc. expressly reserves the right to reproduce any image of the lots sold in the catalogue.
AT THE SALE Refusal of Admission Leslie Hindman Auctioneers, Inc. has the right, at our complete discretion, to refuse admission to the premises or participation in any auction and to reject any bid. Registration before Bidding A prospective buyer must complete and sign a registration form and provide identification before bidding. We may require bank or other financial references. Bidding as Principal When making a bid, a bidder is accepting personal liability to pay the purchase price, including the buyer’s premium, all applicable taxes and all other applicable charges, unless it has been explicitly agreed upon in writing with Leslie Hindman Auctioneers, Inc. before the commencement of the sale that the bidder is acting as agent on behalf of an identified third party acceptable to Leslie Hindman Auctioneers, Inc., and that Leslie Hindman Auctioneers, Inc. will only look to the principal for payment. Absentee Bids We will use reasonable efforts to carry out written bids given to us at least 24 hours prior to the sale for the convenience of clients who are not present at the auction in person, by an agent or by telephone. Bids must be placed in U.S. dollars. If we receive written bids on a particular lot for identical amounts, and
these are the highest bids on the lot at the auction, it will be sold to the person whose written bid was received and accepted first. Execution of written bids is a free service undertaken subject to other commitments at the time of the sale and we do not accept liability for failing to execute a written bid or for errors and omissions in connection with the written bid.
Telephone Bids On lots with a low estimate of $300 and above and if a prospective buyer makes arrangements with us prior to the commencement of the sale we will use reasonable efforts to contact them to enable them to participate in the bidding by telephone and we do not accept liability for failure to do so or for errors and omissions in connection with telephone bidding. These telephone bids may be recorded at the discretion of Leslie Hindman Auctioneers. Online Bids We will use reasonable efforts to carry out online bids and do not accept liability for equipment failure, inability to access the Internet or software malfunctions related to the execution of online bids. Reserves Some lots in the sale are subject to a reserve which is the confidential minimum price below which such lot will not be sold. The reserve will not exceed the low estimate of the lot. Reserves are agreed upon with consignors or, in the absence thereof, the absolute discretion of Leslie Hindman Auctioneers, Inc. The auctioneer may open the bidding on any lot below the reserve by placing a bid on behalf of the seller. The auctioneer may continue to bid on behalf of the seller up to the amount of the reserve, either by placing consecutive bids or by placing bids in response to other bidders. With respect to lots that are offered without reserve, unless there are already competing bids, the auctioneer, in his or her discretion, will generally open the bidding at half of the low estimate for the lot. In the absence of a bid at that level, the auctioneer may proceed backwards at his or her discretion until a bid is recognized, and then continue up from that amount. Auctioneer’s Discretion The auctioneer has the right at his or her absolute and sole discretion to refuse any bid, to advance the bidding in such a manner as he or she may decide, to withdraw any lot, and in the case of error or dispute, and whether during or after the sale, to determine the successful bidder, to continue the bidding, to cancel the sale or to reoffer and resell the item in dispute. If any dispute arises after the sale, our sale record is conclusive. Successful Bid The highest bidder acknowledged by the auctioneer will be the purchaser. In the case of a tie bid, the winning bidder will determined by the auctioneer at his or her sole discretion. In the event of a dispute between bidders, the auctioneer has final discretion to determine the successful bidder or to reoffer the lot in dispute. If any dispute arises after the sale, the Leslie Hindman Auctioneers, Inc. sale record shall be conclusive. Title passes upon the fall of the auctioneer’s hammer to the highest acknowledged bidder subject to the Conditions of Sale set forth herein, and the bidder assumes full risk and responsibility.
