Unless announced otherwise by the auctioneer, all bids are per lot,

as numbered in the printed Catalogue. Archives International Auc-

tions, as agent for the consignor or vendor, shall regulate the bid-

ding and shall determine the manner in which the bidding shall be

conducted. Archives International Auctions reserves the right to

withdraw any lot prior to sale (without liability to any potential pur-

chaser or agent), to re-offer any withdrawn lot, to divide a lot or to

group two or more lots belonging to the same consignor or vendor,

and to refuse any bid believed not made in good faith. Estimates of

sales prices contained in the printed Catalogue reflect the best

judgment of Archives International Auctions and are not minimum

or upset prices.

(b) The highest bid acknowledged by the auctioneer shall prevail.

Should a dispute arise between bidders (including a dispute be

tween a floor bidder and the auctioneer acting on behalf of a

mail bidder, consignor or vendor), the auctioneer alone shall de-

termine who the successful bidder is and whether to reoffer the

lot in dispute. Should a dispute arise after the sale, the auction

eer’s sale records shall be conclusive. On all lots sold, a com-

mission of 20%* on the hammer price is payable by the buyer to

the auctioneer (*See exceptions on next page for bids on internet).

(a) The auctioneer reserves the right to bid on behalf of clients

(and consignors or vendors) but shall not be liable for errors

and omissions in executing instructions to bid, however re-

ceived, and whether such errors or omissions be those of the

bidder or agent or those of the auctioneer.

may implement such reserve price by bidding on behalf of the

consignor vendor.
