JAMES FRANKENBERGER Jim and Gerrie Frankenberger have had a deep and abiding interest in history and travel since their youth. The two met when Jim was stationed at a military base in Knoxville, Tennessee and Gerrie was a student at the University of Tennessee. They married in 1953 and explored the world together during their 56 years of marriage.

As an airline pilot for 31 years, Jim had rare and enviable opportunities to travel the world. One particularly memorable trip was a month-long excursion to China in 1982, when the country first opened up to foreign visitors. Jim and Gerrie always visited museums once they landed, and the British Museum and the Toronto Museum rank among their favorites. They had a pair of close friends in Chicago, of whom the husband was a professor in the field of Chinese history and art. When the four visited a museum or antiques shop together, the professor would explain the significance of the Chinese

artifacts. This sparked Jim and Gerrie’s fascination with Chinese art and prompted them to start collecting in the mid-1970’s.

Over the past few decades, Jim and Gerrie have amassed an extensive collection. They sought out Chinese art dealers in various cities and would time their trips to London and New York to coincide with the auction season. The two also became acquainted with Hisazo Nagatani, the noted Chinese art expert and dealer in Chicago from whom they acquired several items. Jim and Gerrie have considered their collecting a wonderful learning experience in Chinese art and history, as well as an opportunity to enjoy living amongst beautiful objects. Featured in this auction are numerous ceramics, including a Famille Rose Baragon Tumed bowl and a Cizhou pottery vase, jade carvings and snuff bottles from the Frankenberger collection.

A L A N D . K AT Z

Alan David Katz spent the first seventy of his eighty-five years of life in Chicago before moving to Boulder, Colorado in 1997. While a successful Chicago trial attorney for fifty years, he was also a self-taught collector. Fascinated by minerals and lapidary, his collection began with jade carvings, but then expanded to include Asian works of art, art pottery, Southwestern jewelry, vintage watches, Art Nouveau objects and photography of the American West. A true Renaissance man, Mr. Katz also amassed a personal research library to further educate himself on his collecting interests. The Chinese works of art offered in this sale represents only a fraction of Mr. Katz’s diverse collection.

His introduction to travel and a world beyond Illinois was initiated by his military assignment in

Los Alamos, New Mexico in 1945. His travels took flight to a wider expanse such as Berlin before the destruction of the Wall, to China just after its opening to westerners, and to Japan, Russia, Egypt, Peru, Australia, New Zealand, Thailand and Cambodia. The last trip that he took with his beloved wife Myrette, who predeceased him, was to Venice.

Together they shared a passion for art, travel and collecting.

Mr. Katz’s intelligence and literary adeptness became his signature traits, and he was known for his mastery of puns. Researching and acquiring works of art brought him great pleasure, and he embraced life through this confluence of curiosity, education and collecting. Leslie Hindman Auctioneers is honored to offer this extensive and distinctive collection.

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.

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.

The auctioneer may open the bidding on any lot below the reserve by placing a bid on behalf of the seller.

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.
