222. Rare American Rococo Carved and Laminated Rosewood Bedstead, c. 1856, marked “J.H.

[$10000/15000] Provenance: The Columbian Lady Antiques, Sutter Creek, CA; Collection of Dr. Norbert and Mary Fahey, Sacramento, CA. Note: This ornately carved bed is a stunning example of John Henry Belter’s patented bed design, filed in 1856. The U.S. Patent No. 15552 bed design shows a serpentine two-part bedstead with an undulating scrolled headboard and footboard, similar to the present lot. The patent illustration also shows Belter’s signature seven-layer lamination and the corresponding patent specification text written by Belter explains his intricate design process. Belter states within the patent text that the bed was constructed to be easily taken apart without the use of tools, which are “an evil more particularly apparent when it becomes necessary to separate the parts very hurriedly in case of a fire.” A rare example of Belter’s figural carvings, the crest of this bed features opposing maiden and cherub figures at the center among the robustly modeled scrolling foliage. The two figures share the same distinctive features found on other documented Belter figures, including the maiden and cherubs on an etagere from the Service Collection of Grant Oakes.

[$2000/3000] Note: A former Wooton Desk Company employee, Joseph A. Moore obtained four patents for multifaceted bookkeeping desks, beginning in 1878. Similar in style and overall form as their Wooton predecessors, Moore desks were designed so that the writing table remained level when the desk was closed, which Moore considered an advantage over the hinged writing surface found on most Wooton desks. Moore advertised this feature with the slogan “no desk can be complete or valuable without it.” Ref.: Driesbach, Janice, et al.

Note: “Damn the torpedoes, full speed ahead!” The painting offered here depicts the August 5, 1864 Battle of Mobile Bay. At the time, Mobile was one of only two functioning ports in the Confederacy. The bay was guarded by torpedoes and a small flotilla, including the ironclad CSS Tennessee (represented on the right). While navigating the hostile waters, the USS Tecumseh sunk upon striking a torpedo, prompting a widespread hesitation of the advancing Union fleet. Rear Admiral David G. Farragut, undeterred, shouted at his men, “Damn the torpedoes! Four bells. Captain Drayton, go ahead! Jouett, full speed!,” which with its generations of recounting has been transformed into the famous catchphrase above. Ref.: “Mobile Bay.” American Battlefield Trust. www.battlefields.org. Accessed Mar. 3, 2022.
240. François Bernard (French/New Orleans, 1812-1875), “Member of the Burthe Family, reputedly Antoinette Estelle Millaudon Burthe (1819-1853)”, 1856, oil on canvas, signed and dated lower left, handwritten note with sitter information attached to reverse of frame, 41 in. x 35 in. (oval), period frame. [$2000/3000] Note: Based on a handwritten note on the reverse of the frame, the painting offered in this lot is possibly a posthumous portrait of Antoinette Estelle Millaudon Burthe (1819-1853). The portrait was completed in 1856 by artist François Bernard, two years after Burthe’s death. Although not much is known about Antoinette, she was married to Judge Victor Burthe, a wealthy landowner and state political figure. He served as judge in the Carrollton Courthouse in the town of Carrollton, the seat of government in Jefferson Parish from 1855 to 1874. Victor and Antoinette’s fathers, Dominque François Burthe (1785-1852) and Laurent Millaudon (c. 1785-1868) were prominent figures and are considered founding fathers of Carrollton, Louisiana. Both men served as Presidents of the New Orleans and Carrollton Railroad Company, one of the first public transit trolley systems in the urban United States. Burthe and Millaudon Streets in Carrollton retain the men’s surnames to this day as a tribute to the legacy of the two families. This lovely portrait presents the sitter in calm repose with her arm placed on a table at her side. Within arm’s reach sits a vase of flowers executed in precise detail. Her jewelry is finely represented as well, making it possible to study the small birds depicted on the brooch at the sitter’s neck. The canvas highlights Bernard’s sharp eye for detail and versatility in his agile portrayal of both still life and portraiture. 241.

Suivant docilement ses contours, ses noeuds, les moindres accidents de ses veines, j’en tire un oeuvre inspirée par la nature meme… I do not kill the wood, I obey it. Carefully following its contours, its knots, the meandering lines of its veins. I derive from the wood, a work inspired by nature itself.” – Alexandre Noll Originally an artisan and designer whose initial focus was on creating smaller wood objects (parasol handles, lampstands, boot trees, wood shoe soles, etc…), Alexandre Noll’s early talents earned him the attention of prominent designers of the time such as Paul Poiret and Perugia. Noll honed his style, which became more expressive around the Second World War, when his objects and furniture became larger in scale and the design more intuitive. As Ben Weaver writes in The London List: “The objects Noll carved, chiselled and sanded over the next half century reveal an organic unity, a manifestation of the artist’s belief in the sacredness of wood… His mastery of and engagement with every block of rough timber was a form or erudition, an expression of action between subject and object.” The Alexandre Noll work offered here is an excellent example of his sculpture, showcasing his gift in revealing the purest, most intrinsic form of his media.

George Rodrigue (American/Louisiana, 1944-2013), “The Three Musketeers”, 1995, acrylic on canvas, signed lower left, inscribed on side, artist stamp and inscribed on stretcher, 36 in. x 24 in., original frame. [$40000/60000] Provenance: Rodrigue Gallery, Carmel, CA, Aug. 26, 1998. Ill.: Freundlich, Lawrence S. George Rodrigue: A Cajun Artist. New York: Penguin Books, 1996, p. 215, pl. 212. Note: “The Three Musketeers” represents a turning point in George Rodrigue’s decades long journey with his Blue Dog series. Due to health concerns in the mid-1990s, Rodrigue was forced to substitute acrylic painting for his traditional oils. Rodrigue eventually came to favor the medium for its ability to dry quickly, produce vibrant colors and allow him to push the boundaries of his visual language. One of the first paintings produced in acrylic, the canvas offered here displays Rodrigue’s initial explorations in the new medium and a playful change in his treatment of the Blue Dog, and perhaps more importantly, its surroundings. The Blue Dog at the forefront morphs into the different character of Dudley the Bull Dog and wears a bear suit inspired by Rodrigue’s childhood stuffed toy. The lushness of the Louisiana landscape typically serving as the focus or backdrop of Rodrigue’s previous works transforms into bold shapes and primary colors. Visually, the scene has flattened, with the background now matching the iconic twodimensionality of the Blue Dog. With paintings from this important time period, Rodrigue realized he had the ability to take the Blue Dog anywhere he desired on his canvases – a freedom that would profoundly affect the works that followed.

[$2000/3000] Provenance: Kurt Schon Gallery, New Orleans, LA. Note: Jean-Pierre Serrier was born in Montparnasse and attended the Académie des Beaux-Arts in Paris. He had his first exhibition in 1955, before being sent to Algeria to complete his military service. In 1961, Serrier made his first visit to the United States to exhibit at a New York gallery. In 1975 and 1979, he had successful exhibitions in New Orleans in conjunction with Kurt Schon Gallery, and his work was included in art and news magazines, including Time and Newsweek. One of the last French Surrealists, Serrier evoked themes of humanity and mortality through the lens of the teachings of Nietzsche and Freud, as seen in the large-scale and haunting painting offered here. He was a member of the Autumn Salon and in 1976 was elected a jury member. He exhibited widely during his lifetime, including in London, Paris, Geneva, and Brussels, and posthumous retrospectives of his work took place in both New York and New Orleans. 71

[$20000/30000] Provenance: Acquired from the artist; Roland Begneaud Family Collection, Lafayette, LA. Ill.: Freundlich, Lawrence S. George Rodrigue: A Cajun Artist. New York: Penguin Books, 1996, p. 80, pl. 53.

Note: Roland Begneaud (1925-1997) was a pharmacist and engineer who started Begneaud’s Pharmacy in the Oil Center of Lafayette in 1963, as a second location to the original opened by his father, Arista Begneaud, at the corner of South Buchanan and Congress Streets in 1939. In 1972, Dickie Hebert, childhood friend of George Rodrigue, worked as a pharmacist for Begneaud and introduced the two. By this time, Rodrigue had opened a small gallery on Pinhook Road in Lafayette, where he painted daily, and had begun to receive early recognition for his work. Begneaud recognized the talent of the emerging artist and as well as the potential in investing in his work. Over the next ten years, he amassed the largest private collection of Rodrigue Cajun paintings to date. According to Wendy Rodrigue, “the two friends became fast business associates, working out purchase agreements, oftentimes hand-written on the backs of the pharmacy’s prescription pads, to help Rodrigue finance the improvements on his single-story Victorian-style home on Jefferson Street. Rodrigue famously (and expensively) raised the house, building an additional floor underneath as his gallery… [W]ith the exception of Roland Begneaud and a handful of other friends, the majority of Rodrigue’s collectors, whether Cajun or Blue Dog canvases, lived outside of Louisiana. And throughout his life, Rodrigue remained grateful to Roland Begneaud for appreciating and nurturing his vision.” In 1976, both Rodrigue and Begneaud celebrated their success when the book The Cajuns of George Rodrigue, featuring eleven works from the Begneaud Collection, was chosen by The National Endowment for the Arts and Rosalynn Carter as an Official White House Gift of State during the Carter administration. Subsequent books published on the artist included further works from the Begneaud Collection, such as the one offered here and illustrated in George Rodrigue: A Cajun Artist from 1996. Upon Begneaud’s death, his family inherited the works, and they have graciously loaned their paintings on numerous occasions for public exhibition. Often based on 1920s-30s period photographs from his mother’s album, Rodrigue’s early Cajun paintings reflect his interpretation of a fading era and his own Louisiana Cajun heritage with a contemporary and unique approach. His timeless figures inhabit a landscape clearly both familiar and beloved by the artist. The two sources of light in the scene, the woman and the light beneath the trees, serve to highlight the often-shadowed landscape of Acadiana and allow Rodrigue’s Cajuns to shine from within with the hope of a displaced people.

If the buyer fails to comply with any of these Conditions of Sale, Neal Auction Company reserves the 6. right to (a) hold such defaulting buyer liable, obligated, and responsible for the total amount due and to commence legal proceedings to recover the entire amount along with interest, reasonable attorneys’ fees, expenses, and costs; (b) charge outstanding amounts to the buyer’s credit card; (c) apply any payments to outstanding amounts chosen by Neal Auction Company notwithstanding the instructions of the buyer; (d) cancel the sale, retaining as liquidated damages any payment made by the buyer; (e) resell the lot without reserve at public auction, online-only auction, or privately on seven calendar days’ notice to the buyer; (f) enforce specific performance of the sale; (g) require a deposit in future auctions; (h) exclude the buyer from future auctions or bidding on particular lots; (i) exercise the rights and remedies of a person holding security and/or privilege over property in Neal Auction Company’s possession, whether by pledge, security interest or any other mechanism, to the full extent allowed under Louisiana law, and Neal Auction Company may hold the property of the buyer as collateral security for the buyer’s obligations; (j) and/or take such other actions allowed by law in Neal Auction Company’s sole discretion. If Neal Auction Company resells the lot, the defaulting buyer shall be liable, obligated, and responsible for the payment of any deficiency in the purchase price and any damages, including but not limited to all costs and expenses of both sales, such as, by way of example only, storage, handling, insurance, repairs, illustrations, consultations, examinations, moving, shipping, promotions, advertising, reasonable attorneys’ fees, commissions, and incidental damages.
Virtually all lots offered have been subject to use over a considerable period of time. No mention of 7. cracks, scratches, chips, tears, breaks, weaknesses, or any damages or wear will be included in oral, written, or electronic statements or descriptions in the catalogue, website, correspondence, advertising, or literature. Condition reports may be provided upon request, but condition reports may not mention all cracks, scratches, chips, defects, hazards, tears, breaks, weaknesses, or other damages or wear. Neal Auction Company makes no representations or warranties as to the accuracy or completeness of any information or description in a condition report or elsewhere, whether oral, written, electronic, or online. Neal Auction Company reserves the right to decline to provide a condition report for any specific lot, at its sole discretion. Neither high nor low estimates in a catalogue, website, advertising, correspondence, literature, or 8. elsewhere should be relied on as a representation, prediction, appraisal, guarantee, or warranty that a particular lot will sell for a particular price or that a particular lot has a particular value.
9. Neal Auction Company has absolute discretion to admit a bidder to the auction premises, to expel a bidder from the auction premises, or to refuse a bidder from participating in the auction. 10. Neal Auction Company and its auctioneers shall not be liable, obligated, or responsible for failure to recognize or execute any bids for any reason whatsoever, or for no reason. Bidders and buyers WAIVE and RELEASE any rights to damages, and equitable, declaratory, and injunctive relief arising out of the failure or rejection of any bid, or any errors or omissions relating to the bidding process. 11.
Interfering with the auction in any way is prohibited.
13.
Canvassing or solicitating on the auction premises is prohibited.
12. Bid rigging is strictly prohibited. Any agreement, understanding, or arrangement not to bid against another or otherwise to dampen the bidding is unlawful. The auctioneer reserves the right to bid on behalf of the consignor for the protection of the consignor if this illegal activity by two or more bidders is detected, disclosed, alleged, or suspected. 14. The auctioneer has the sole discretion as to the increments of bidding, the recognition of any bid, the acceptance of the final bid, and resolving any disputes among bidders.
15. Neal Auction Company represents the consignors only and is not acting as agent or representative of bidders or buyers. The payment of the buyer’s premium by the buyer does not indicate a dual agency relationship. Neal Auction Company is to be paid a fee or commission by the consignor pursuant to a separate written agreement between the consignor and Neal Auction Company. The consignor is the seller of the lot sold. Neal Auction Company is the consignment agent or representative, not the seller. 16. The successful bidder is obligated to pay the purchase price in full unless Neal Auction Company has consented in writing at the time of the bidder’s registration that the bidder is acting as an agent on behalf of an identified person and that said principal is obligated to pay the purchase price in full. Neal Auction Company reserves the right to require an advance deposit for such bids.
17. Prior to placing any bid, all bidders must complete a standard Neal Auction Company Registration Form in use at the time of the auction. 18.
Dealers must provide Neal Auction Company with proper documentation prior to bidding.
20.
Bids are required to be made in U.S. dollars.
19.
First time bidders are required to produce a valid state-issued identification card or passport.
21. Neal Auction Company may require a bidder or buyer at any time to produce financial, banking, or trade references and information.
22. All bidders are required to provide credit card information (such as but not limited to the type of card, card number, name as it appears on the card, billing zip code, expiration date, and security code).
92
23. All bidders are required to select, and notify Neal Auction Company of, a method of payment (cash, check, wire, or credit card) in writing at the time of registration. 24. Neal Auction Company reserves the right to describe or to make photographic, video, or audio recordings of the auction, or any part thereof, and to publish such descriptions, photographs and/or recordings.
25. Lots may be offered subject to a reserve, which is the confidential minimum hammer price below which the lot will not be sold, for the protection of the consignor. Such reserve will not exceed the low estimate for the lot. The auctioneer may open the bidding on any lot by placing a bid on behalf of the consignor, auctioneer, or an absentee bidder that is below the reserve. The auctioneer may continue to bid on behalf of the consignor, auctioneer, or absentee bidder up to the amount of the reserve, by placing consecutive bids or by bidding in response to other bidders. Neal Auction Company may sell a lot at a hammer price below the reserve at its discretion, subject to its agreement with the consignor. ABSENTEE/TELEPHONE/ONLINE BIDS 1. All absentee bids and/or telephone bids must be received by Neal Auction Company by 5 p.m. Central Time the Thursday prior to the auction. 2. All arrangements for bidding should be made as early as possible. Telephone bidding will be taken at the discretion of Neal Auction Company. Each lot must have a minimum low estimate of $500 for telephone bidding. Absentee bids are accepted for any lots regardless of estimate, at the discretion of Neal Auction Company.
3. Neal Auction Company intends to endeavor to protect the confidentiality of absentee/telephone bids. In the event that the identity of absentee/telephone bidders or buyers or of the amounts of absentee/ telephone bids is disclosed, Neal Auction Company shall not be liable, obligated, or responsible for such disclosure, and each bidder and buyer WAIVES and RELEASES Neal Auction Company (and its owners, officers, directors, representatives, insurers, agents, and employees) from any claims arising out of such disclosure. 4. Neal Auction Company reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to require that any advance bids be accompanied by a security deposit.
5. Neal Auction Company shall not be liable, obligated, or responsible for any failure, design flaw, error, act, omission, or negligence of third party sites or their agents. Bidders WAIVE and RELEASE any rights to damages and equitable, declaratory, and injunctive relief and remedies arising therefrom. 6. Prior to placing any absentee, telephone, or online bid, all bidders are required to complete the applicable Registration Form prior to such bidding.
7. In the event of ambiguity, uncertainty, or discrepancy, the lot number and not the lot description on any bid will be deemed to be the lot on which the bid is made. 8. If more than one absentee bid on a particular lot is received with the same maximum bid amount, and that bid amount is the highest and best bid for the lot, the lot will be sold to the bidder whose absentee bid was accepted first by Neal Auction Company after receiving it. If a bid placed on a lot by a bidder who is physically present at the auction is identical to an absentee bid for the lot and is the highest and best bid for the lot, the lot will be sold to the person who is physically present at the auction. If a bid placed on a lot by a bidder who is present at the auction (in person or by telephone) is identical to an absentee bid for the lot and is the highest and best bid for the lot, the lot will be sold to the person who is present at the auction (in person or by telephone). 9. Neal Auction Company reserves the right to record any telephone bidding or conversation relating to said bidding, or any part thereof, and to publish said recordings. By participating in telephone bidding, the bidder consents to such recording and publication, notwithstanding the laws or regulations of the state or jurisdiction of the bidder.
HANDLING AND STORAGE
Unless other arrangements are made and confirmed in writing by Neal Auction Company, all lots must be removed within 15 calendar days of the auction. On the first business day following that time period, any lots remaining in the Neal Auction Company gallery may be turned over to a storage facility, at Neal Auction Company’s discretion. The buyer will be responsible for all handling and storage charges. Handling charges shall be a minimum of $50 per lot. Storage costs shall be a minimum charge of $50 per month per lot. Storage charges accrue monthly and must be paid in full before any lots purchased by the buyer are released. At its discretion, Neal Auction Company may charge the full amount of any storage and handling charges, on a periodic basis, on the buyer’s credit card, including interest at the rate of one and one-half percent per month.
All purchased lots will be handled and stored at the buyer’s sole risk and peril. Neal Auction Company (and its owners, officers, directors, representatives, insurers, agents, and employees) shall not be liable, obligated, or responsible for handling or storage, or for any damage to or loss of, any lot after the sale. The buyer WAIVES and RELEASES all such claims against Neal Auction Company (and its owners, officers, directors, representatives, insurers, agents, and employees). INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS
Neal Auction Company retains the copyright and other intellectual property rights to all photographs, video, illustrations, text, and other works in its catalogue, website, advertising, correspondence, literature, and elsewhere. Such photographs, video, illustrations, text, and other works may not be used, copied, published, exhibited, revised, or displayed without the prior written permission of Neal Auction Company. Neal Auction Company and the consignor make no representation or warranty that the buyer of a lot will acquire any copyright or other intellectual property right or interest in the lot. IMPORT/EXPORT
Lots made of or incorporating endangered or protected wildlife materials, irrespective of age or amount of material, may require a license or certificate authorizing export from the United States as well as relevant authorizations from the country of import. It is the responsibility of the bidder or buyer to determine and be satisfied that the requirements of any applicable laws and regulations applying to the transportation, whether international or interstate, can be met before bidding. The inability of a buyer to transport lots containing endangered or protected wildlife material is not a basis for cancellation or rescission of the sale or discount of the purchase price. Although licenses may be obtainable to export certain types of endangered species, some types may not be exported at all, and other types may not be resold in certain states in the United States. Neal Auction Company cannot assist the bidder or buyer in attempting to obtain the appropriate licenses and/or certificates, and bidders and buyers can be given no assurance that an export license or certificate can be obtained. Each bidder should verify with an attorney or qualified shipping company if uncertain as to whether a lot is subject to export/import license and certificate requirements and any other restrictions or prohibitions on the interstate transportation or exportation from the United States. Neal Auction Company (and its owners, officers, directors, representatives, insurers, agents, and employees) shall not be liable, obligated, or responsible for any oral, written, or electronic advice given or representations made by it or by any shipping company, legal counsel, or other person. Buyers WAIVE and RELEASE any and all claims against Neal Auction Company (and its owners, officers, directors, representatives, insurers, agents, and employees) relating to such advice and representations. MANDATORY AND EXCLUSIVE FORUM SELECTION; CHOICE OF LAW
PAYMENT
Any action of any nature brought by a bidder or buyer against Neal Auction Company (and/or its owners, directors, officers, representatives, insurers, and/or employees) and/or the consignor of any lot in any court, whether federal or state, shall be brought exclusively in Orleans Parish, Louisiana. Every bidder and buyer agrees to submit to jurisdiction and venue in federal or state court in Orleans Parish, Louisiana, waives all objections or challenges to such jurisdiction or venue, and waives any rights to jurisdiction or venue in any other forum. Any dispute between the bidder or buyer and Neal Auction Company (and/or its owners, directors, officers, representatives, insurers, and/or employees) and/or the consignor of any lot shall be governed by the law of the State of Louisiana, notwithstanding any conflicts of laws principles.
2. The successful online bidder shall pay a buyer’s premium in the amount of 28% of the hammer price on each lot. A discount for payments made by cash, check, or wire transfer is not available for purchases made by online bidders.
MISCELLANEOUS LEGAL PROVISIONS
1. The successful bidder (except a successful online bidder) shall pay a buyer’s premium in the amount of 25% of the hammer price on each lot up to and including $200,000, plus 15% of the hammer price greater than $200,000. For payments made by cash, check, or wire transfer (except by online bidders) within 15 calendar days of the auction, the buyer’s premium will be discounted to 22%.
3.
In the event of any dispute, the Neal Auction Company sale record is conclusive.
4. Unless exempt by law, the buyer will be required to pay Louisiana and local taxes, and, if applicable, any federal luxury or other tax, on the total purchase price. 5. Documentation of tax exemption must be provided upon registration. Billing name and address of a bidder must agree with that on the sales tax exemption certificate. 6. Payment in full of the purchase price must be made by the successful bidder in U.S. Dollars within 15 calendar days of the auction. Interest charges of one and one-half percent per month shall apply to invoices paid after this period expires. Neal Auction Company reserves the right to require payment in full of the purchase price immediately following declaration of the successful bidder. 7. Payment for all jewelry purchases must be made by cash, check or wire transfer.
VISA, MasterCard, Discover, and American Express are accepted for payment of invoices (except jewelry) 8. up to $25,000 per buyer. 9. Checks must be drawn on a U.S. bank. All lots shall be held by Neal Auction Company until the check clears.
10. The buyer’s signature on a registration form (or other writing with the buyer’s credit card number) gives Neal Auction Company permission to charge the buyer’s credit card the full amount of the buyer’s invoice if full payment is not received within 15 calendar days of the auction or, in Neal Auction Company’s discretion, to charge the buyer’s credit card later, with interest at the rate of one and one-half percent per month. PACKING, MOVING, SHIPPING, AND DELIVERY
Neal Auction Company may furnish information on packers, movers, or shippers for bidders or buyers making packing, moving, shipping, and delivery arrangements, but Neal Auction Company shall not be liable, obligated, or responsible therefore, and buyers retain packers, movers, and shippers at their own risk and peril. Shipping, moving, packing, and delivery arrangements and agreements are strictly between the buyer and the shipper, mover, or packer. Neal Auction Company shall not be liable, obligated, or responsible for any damage to property, including vehicles, or for any personal injuries of buyer or any third parties involved in packing, moving, shipping, or delivery. Buyers WAIVE and RELEASE Neal Auction Company (and its owners, officers, directors, representatives, insurers, agents, and employees) from any and all claims relating to packing, moving, shipping, and delivery of purchased lots, and any damage or injuries to persons or property arising therefrom.
If any part of these Conditions of Sale is held to be invalid, null, or unenforceable, that part shall be reformed so as to implement the intent of the parties as expressed herein, and any such holding shall not affect the remaining provisions of these Conditions of Sale, which shall remain in full force and effect, subject to reformation to implement the intent of the parties as expressed herein. The paragraph headings contained herein are for convenience of reference only and shall not affect the meaning or interpretation of these Conditions of Sale. All prior and contemporaneous representations, communications, and agreements, if any, between the bidder or buyer and Neal Auction Company (and any of its owners, officers, directors, representatives, insurers, agents, and employees) relating to any of the lots offered for sale or to the auction or sale are hereby superseded and merged into these Conditions of Sale, which are the entire and only contract between the bidder or buyer and Neal Auction Company relating to the subject matter herein. Any modifications, amendments, or waivers of these Conditions of Sale must be made in a writing signed by both Neal Auction Company and the bidder or buyer. In the event of any disputes arising out of the auction or sale of lots or these Conditions of Sale, Neal Auction Company (and its owners, officers, directors, representatives, insurers, agents, and employees) shall not be liable, obligated or responsible for any general, special, exemplary, incidental, or consequential damages (including but not limited to lost profits and attorneys’ fees). Every bidder and buyer WAIVES and RELEASES any rights to such damages. This LIMITATION OF LIABILITY does not, and is not intended to, enlarge or expand any rights or interests of a bidder or buyer that are restricted or limited elsewhere in these Conditions of Sale (including but not limited to the WARRANTY WAIVERS and LIABILITY LIMITATIONS set forth herein). These Conditions of Sale constitute a binding legal contract between Neal Auction Company and each bidder or buyer. Each bidder and buyer acknowledges having read and understood these Conditions of Sale, WAIVERS OF WARRANTY, and LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY. All bidders and buyers further acknowledge that they enter into these Conditions of Sale of their own free will, with full authority, and under no duress or coercion.
