A Guide

t o g r a d i n g c o n d i t i o n & a b b r e v i at i o n s

BY JOHN MIHOVETZ In order to properly grade a sign, I have assigned a numbered grading scale from 10 to 1. I created a scale that is easy to understand, and goes into depth on how pieces get their current grade. The 10 to 1 grading scale is currently the best way to grade Tin, Porcelain, Cardboard, & Paper Advertising. I also like to use the plus & minus system along side the numbered grading scale. The plus & minus system works well with the numbered grade because there are better looking grade 9.0 pieces when set side by side, so the plus & minus allows for a slightly better number grade. Although the grading scale is slightly subjective, I have described the process of assigning a piece a numbered grade, and gone into depth in areas on what makes the grading scale accurate.

In the category of grading 10 to 9.0, I went into even more detail because this category is slightly overused in todays market, so I want to show what it takes to assign pieces into that particular grade category. Grading is also slightly less aggressive on a large piece, such as a six foot round sign.

This grading scale is very useful when it comes to

10 – A grade that is rarely or never given. In order for a sign to obtain a “10.0” grade, the piece would have to have just rolled out of the original firing kiln with no age or wear whatsoever.

9.9 to 9.5 - A grade of near perfect condition. In order for pieces to grade in this category, they would most likely have to be found New Old Stock. These pieces may have only the slightest amount of edge wear, or small flaw or, “Flea Bite” style chip near a grommet or mounting hole. This piece should also have more than 95 percent of the original color & gloss intact. The piece in this category may have a factory filled flaw or light surface scratch that is not distracting to the appeal of the piece.

9.4 to 9.0 – A grade of just below perfect condition, with a slight amount of edge wear or light chipping along the outer edge, grommets, or mounting holes only. The field of the sign is free of any chips, but may allow for one “Flea Bite” chip in a non distracting area. This piece should also have more than 90 percent of original color and gloss is intact. The piece may also allow only the slightest amount of surface wear in the gloss coat, such as a light scratch or light amount of discoloration that is not distracting to the appeal of the piece.

understanding the demand of pieces in certain categories, how the grading scale dictates a sales price, or the desirability of a certain piece in certain grade category.

When it comes to grading signs with color match or touch up, you have to look past the color match or touched up areas, and judge the sign as if the color match or touch up is not there, and assign a grade category accordingly.

When it comes to signs that been restored, they must be placed in one category and one category only, which is restored.

Unlike a sign that has been color matched or touched up in a few areas, a sign that has been professionally restored can never come back to a reasonable state of original condition.

When it comes to the pricing a restored sign, an immaculately professional restoration on a sign, that piece should bring approximately 40 - 50 percent of an example in 9.0+ original condition or better, although there may be a few exemptions due to rarity or demand.

8.9 to 8.5 – A grade below perfect condition, with minimal chipping or areas of wear around the outer edge or light chips around mounting holes or grommets that are not over distracting. The field on a piece in this grade should be very clean, but may also allow for one to three small, “Flea Bite” chips, or one non distracting dime size chip on the sign, but not in the field. At least 85 percent or more of the original color & gloss should also be intact, and allow for a minimal amount of scratching or discoloration in small areas.

8.4 to 8.0 – A grade below perfect condition, that allows for more wear & chipping around the outer edge or near the grommet or mounting holes. This sign may also allow for one to two dime size chips on the piece, including the field but not overly distracting. A piece in this grade may also have quarter to half dollar size area of discoloration in the color & gloss, and allow for some light surface scratches in the gloss, as long as its not in the focal point of a piece. This piece should have 80 percent or more of the original color & gloss intact, and not have any distracting areas of the focal point.

A Guide

t o g r a d i n g c o n d i t i o n & a b b r e v i at i o n s 7.9 to 7.5 – A grade that falls below near perfect condition.

The pieces in this category will have wear & chipping in multiple areas of the sign. The piece will still have an eye appeal to it, but have areas of distracting wear. There will be two to four dime to quarter size chips present in the field as well as wear along the outer edge, mounting holes or grommets. This piece should have 75 percent or more of the original color & gloss intact, but will allow for more areas of discoloration, such as loss of gloss or surface scratches.

7.4 to 7.0 – A grade that falls below near perfect condition.

The pieces in this category will have wear & chipping in multiple areas of the sign. This piece will still have appeal to it, but have heavier areas of distracting wear. There will be three to five dime to quarter size chips present in the field as well as distracting wear along the outer edge, and wear & chipping at the mounting holes or grommets. This piece should still retain 70 percent or more of the original color & gloss intact, but will allow for heavier areas of discoloration, such as heavier areas of gloss loss or surface scratches.

6.9 to 6.0 – A grade that falls below collector grade condition. These pieces will have large areas of wear & chipping throughout the sign. The sign may also have creased areas that have been flattened out. The sign will have larger areas of wear, but still a visible graphic or image.

The piece should still retain 60 percent of color & gloss intact, but will allow for large areas of distracting wear and surface scratching. Although the sign has heavy areas of wear, it should still have a decorator type appeal, with a cool weathered look.

5.9 to 5.0 – A grade that falls below collector grade condition. This pieces will have heavy areas of wear, large chips, and may have missing pieces. These pieces should still retain 50 percent of the original image left, but will allow for large areas of distracting wear and surface scratches.

Although signs in this category show significant wear, it should still have a decorator type appeal with a cool weathered look.

4.9 and Below – A grade that falls below collector or decorator type condition. These pieces will have large areas of wear, will have heavy damage, and may be missing pieces.

These piece have little to nothing left that appeal to the eye of a collector or decorator, and have little to no value.

Although they may be heavily damaged or worn, these are great candidates for restoration.

THE COLLECTION OF

bobby Knudsen JR .

The wait is over, and the event petroliana collectors have been talking about for so many months is finally here: the auction of the Bobby Knudsen Jr. Collection of World-Class Automotive, Gas & Oil and Soda Pop Advertising.

Bobby’s phenomenal assemblage of 1,000+ porcelain, neon and tin signs is revered throughout the collecting hobby for its abundance of extremely rare, authentic examples in superior condition. Building that collection has been a labor of love for Bobby. Around 1990 he started frequenting auctions and other events like the Iowa Gas Swap Meet, where he would buy as many signs as he could possibly hand-carry on the flight home, never once entrusting his cherished purchases to the whims of baggage handlers.

To me, Bobby is like the godfather of our hobby. As long as I have been involved in petroliana and soda pop signage, Bobby has been one of the leading lights. It’s challenging to find the right words to convey just how unique and historically significant his collection is. His signs are in the same rarefied league as those of his good friend, the late Kyle Moore, whose collection we auctioned to a standing-room-only crowd in 2016. And while Bobby isn’t the type of person to spend time promoting himself or his new acquisitions on social media – far from it – he is respected everywhere he goes and has his own following amongst collectors. If anyone has earned bragging rights, it’s him, but that wouldn’t be his style. He’s known for his humility and takes pride in the fact that he’s a native Idahoan – the son of Danish immigrants – who knows the value of a hard day’s work.

He actually started out his working life as a farmer, growing potatoes, wheat and alfalfa on 27,000 acres of leased federal and state land, on which he also ran 450 head of cows and calves.

A self-described patriot, Bobby served honorably in the U.S. Army and later became partners with his father in Thunderbird Irrigation of Idaho Inc., manufacturers of wheel lines and irrigation equipment. If you were to ask Bobby, who grew up modestly, he might tell you his lucrative career in irrigation technology was all part of a self-fulfilling prophecy. He tells the story of his fifth-grade teacher who tapped him on the shoulder for daydreaming in class and asked, “What are you thinking about?,” to which Bobby replied, “Being a millionaire and buying a big black Cadillac.” He was banished to the hallway so he could continue his deep thinking. Many years later, he happened to run into his former teacher’s husband and asked, “Is your wife still alive? If so, I want to come by and give her a ride in my brand-new Cadillac.” That’s classic Bobby Knudsen.

Throughout his 32 years of energetic collecting, Bobby has been an unstoppable force, thriving on personal interaction and reveling in the discovery of each new advertising treasure. He has always been a buyer, rarely a seller. This was obvious to anyone who ever had the pleasure of visiting his extraordinary collection, which was housed in three spacious buildings on his Idaho property.

Packing and transporting Bobby’s museum-worthy collection was an experience many of us at Morphy’s will never forget. It took four big diesel trucks and more than a dozen staff members – including Dan Morphy and myself – to get the job done. Of course, Bobby was right there alongside us, with shirtsleeves rolled up, directing his forklift operators as though they were part of a military operation. We were all acutely aware that we were handling precious cargo that had to be packed like dynamite for the long, careful journey back to Pennsylvania.

Bobby’s collection is highly refined and, needless to say, very valuable. We therefore felt the only responsible way to present it to the public would be as a series of three premier auctions conducted over a one-year period. The collection deserves to be honored and promoted in the same way as if it were an important collection of fine art. Accordingly, the Bobby Knudsen Jr. Collection Part I will be auctioned on September 30th, with Part II to follow in spring 2023, and Part III next fall, around the time of the Hershey Show. Per Bobby’s instructions, the entire collection, with no exceptions, will be offered without reserve.

Explaining his decision, Bobby said: “My friends asked if I was scared to send my whole collection to an auction with no reserve, but I said ‘no,’ because I know Dan Morphy will do a great job. His company will treat you right and treat you fair. Collectors can come to the auctions and have the same chance as everyone else to bid on whichever signs they want – that’s the way I did it. The auctions are going to be fun, and I hope every bidder goes home with something from my collection that they really wanted.”

We look forward to seeing you on September 30th for one of the most exciting auction events of the decade.

Terms & Conditions We advise all bidders to read the Terms and Conditions of the Sale before bidding with Dan Morphy Auctions LLC and/or Morphy Firearms LLC collectively referred to below as MORPHY’S. Those who bid are bound by those Terms and Conditions of the Sale, as amended by any oral announcement, published or posted notices, which together form the contract of the sale between the successful bidder (buyer), MORPHY’S and the seller (consignor) of the lot.

TERMS OF SALE

TIMING

LIMITED GUARANTEE

FIREARMS – These terms do NOT apply to our firearms auctions. To view the terms and conditions for our Firearms Auctions, please go to: www.morphyauctions.com/firearmterms

When bidding on any lot offered by MORPHY’S, the bidder indicates acceptance of the following Terms of Sale. Any participation in the auction binds you to agreement of these terms whether you read or understand said terms. The Terms in writing contained herein are subject to change without notice and bidder agrees that the most recently published Terms of Sale as published or amended on the website at the beginning of the auction shall apply.

MORPHY’S makes every effort to accurately describe all items offered in its sales. The descriptions carry a limited guarantee. It is a guarantee to protect you against major discrepancies that would have a major effect upon the value of the item. Under no circumstances do we guarantee against anything less than a major discrepancy that would have less than a major effect upon value. This limited guarantee covers authenticity, major restoration or repair not described, counterfeits, reproductions or major fabrications not disclosed in the description. Examples of what we do not guarantee against, imperfections, slight damages, handling marks, natural imperfections, undisclosed blemishes, finish differences, wood-to-metal fit issues, surface cracks or chips in wood, dings and dents, bore condition and other similar differences that are inherent in the antiques and collectible industry. All items are sold for display purposes. If electrical, mechanical, or other working parts are inoperable, even if working at the time of sale, we are not liable due to the inherent nature of the age of these antiques and items. It is the bidder’s responsibility (present or absentee bidders) to determine by inspection by themselves or a hired professional the exact condition of each item prior to bidding on the item. Should MORPHY’S deny an authenticity issue dispute of the buyer, and the buyer is not satisfied, the buyer may, at his or her own expense, obtain the written opinion of two mutually agreed upon recognized experts in the field of the disputed item. The final decision of those experts will determine any refund consideration. This limited guarantee is only available to the buyer of record. Please also refer to POST SALE RETURN POLICY at end of terms.

Except as stated in the limited guarantee above, MORPHY’S will not be held responsible for typographical errors. Neither we nor the consignor, make any guarantees, warranties, or representation, expressed, or implied, in regard to the property or the correctness of the catalog or other description of the authenticity of authorship, physical condition, size, quality, rarity, importance, provenance, exhibition, literature or historic relevance of the property or otherwise. It is the bidder’s responsibility to initiate contact with MORPHY’S in request for additional information regarding the items. Submit all questions regarding upcoming auction items at least 48 hours prior to the date of auction. We will make every effort to answer all submitted questions in a timely manner. We will do our best but cannot promise that questions submitted within 48 hours of the auction date will be answered prior to the auction. The consigner and we make no representation or warranty as to whether the buyer acquires any reproduction rights in the property. All items will be available for preview approximately one (1) month prior to the auction.

There will be no options for refunds of any type beyond 35 calendar days from the auction date. Paying late and thus receiving items late will not change the limitation on the dates above for refund consideration. Please also refer to POST SALE RETURN POLICY at end of terms.

TOYS - Toy sets are not returnable under any circumstances once the bidder obtains possession of the lot.

GAMING DEVICES - MORPHY’S may hold these items for up to 5 business days to allow state agencies to verify the buyer’s information.

All auction participants are urged to check the legality of possession in and/or shipment of gaming devices to their state of residence.

Ownership of gaming devices is prohibited in these states: Alabama, Connecticut, Hawaii, Nebraska, South Carolina, and Tennessee. If you become a high bidder on a gaming item, and you are from one of the prohibited states as listed here: • You must pay for your item, • You will not be able to take possession of the item (MORPHY’S cannot ship it to you or allow pickup), • MORPHY’S will consign the item in your name to the next appropriate auction.

If you do not pay for the item in full, MORPHY’S will block you from participating in future auctions. Any gaming device purchased at the auction shall be used for the purpose of display or social entertainment within the private home or residence of the buyer, and such devices shall not, in any event or manner, be exposed to the public for the purpose of gambling or be resold in the state of Nevada without a gaming distribution license. Proof of residence/ID is required for purchase of gaming devices.

FIREWORKS – MORPHY’S can only ship Class 1 Division 1.4 and 1.6 Explosives (as described in the following website: http:// environmentalchemistry.com/yogi/hazmat/placards/class1.html) per the 49CFR 173.50 and can only ship these via UPS. All items not shippable must be picked up by the buyer.

SPORTS COLLECTIBLES • Return Considerations o MORPHY’s is not responsible for a third party grading company agreeing or disagreeing with our assessment, and we cannot issue refunds or credits if cards do not receive a numerical grade or the exact grade that we describe. MORPHY’s strongly recommends that you personally evaluate any items that you are bidding on, and make your own determination about its grade. MORPHY’S offers no guarantee of grade for uncertified items sold and subsequently submitted to a third-party grading service. o Cards sold referencing a third-party grading service are sold “as is” without any express or implied warranty. Certain warranties may be available from the grading services, and the Bidder is referred to them for further details: Professional Sports Authenticator (PSA), Sportscard Guaranty LLC (SGC), Global Authentics LLC, Beckett Grading Services (BGS), JO Sports, Inc. (continued...)

bidder

Terms & Conditions o MORPHY’S will not accept return of certified items due to possible differences of opinion with respect to the grade offered by any third-party organization, dealer, or service. Grading does not qualify for return evaluation, nor do such complaints constitute a basis to challenge the authenticity of a lot. o MORPHY’s shall not be liable for any patent or latent defect or controversy pertaining to or arising from any encapsulated collectible. In any such instance, buyer’s remedy, if any, shall be solely against the service certifying the collectible. o Under extremely limited circumstances related solely to authenticity, such as a highly significant cataloging error, a buyer, who did not bid from the floor, may request MORPHY’S to evaluate voiding a sale. o Lots returned must be completely intact in their original form and undamaged holder, or there will be no credit. Certifications are void and returns are not accepted for any cards removed from their third-party grading holder. o All elements of the MORPHY’S POST-SALE RETURN POLICY apply. There are absolutely no exceptions to this policy.

• On any lot presented with a Letter of Authenticity (“LOA”) issued by MORPHY’S o The bidder shall solely rely upon the warranties of the authentication provider issuing the Letter or opinion, or on the warranties of the authentication provider of the bidder’s choice. o Warranty inures only to the original buyer. Buyer may not transfer the rights afforded under the LOA, and it is null and void when Buyer transfers or attempts to transfer the lot. o The LOA warranty is valid from date of the auction in which Buyer was awarded the lot to four (4) years after its purchase. o The LOA warranty is valid as to its attribution to the person or entity described or to the lot’s usage, e.g. game worn. o Claim procedure:

o Buyer must contact MORPHY’S within the warranty period, prior to submission of the lot as to his intent to make a claim, receive prior approval, and arrange secure shipment.

o Buyer must present with the claim, authoritative written evidence that the lot is not authentic as determined by a known expert in the sports field.

o If MORPHY’S concurs that the lot is not as represented, Buyer shall be refunded their purchase price.

o If the MORPHY’s denies the claim, the Buyer agrees to the AGREEMENT REGARDING GOVERNING LAW, VENUE, AND LEGAL RIGHTS noted herein.

o The LOA does not provide for incidental or consequential damages or other indirect damages. Any lot sold with a certificate of authenticity or other warranty from an entity other than Auctioneer or Morphy’s affiliates is subject to such issuing entity’s rules and such conditions are the sole remedy afforded to buyer.

• In the event MORPHY’s cannot deliver the lot, or subsequently it is established that the lot lacks title, provenance, or authenticity, MORPHY’s liability shall be limited to voiding of the sale and refund of purchase price. In no case shall MORPHY’s liability exceed the winning bid on that lot, which bid shall be deemed for all purposes the value of the lot. After one year has elapsed, MORPHY’S maximum liability shall be limited to any buyer’s premium earned on that lot.

• Due to changing grading standards over time, differing interpretations, and to possible mishandling of items by subsequent owners, MORPHY’S reserves the right to grade items differently than shown on certificates from any grading service that accompany the items. MORPHY’S also reserves the right to grade items differently than the grades shown in the prior catalog should such items be reconsigned to any future auction.

• There is a subjectivity to grading, especially the grading of cards. Every effort is made to verify the condition of each lot as it is described. MORPHY’S accepts items for auction after careful scrutiny by not only ourselves, but, when necessary, by other leading authenticators. We cannot guarantee that every card described by us will in all cases receive exactly the same grade, or even be accepted for grading, from any third-party grading service. Similarly, we cannot guarantee that every card graded by one third-party grading service will in all cases receive exactly the same grade by another third-party grading service. Occasionally a lot description will include the words “we have submitted,” which is intended to be taken literally and give bidders great confidence that MORPHY’S has not “done anything” to the cards to alter or otherwise improve their appearance and ultimate grade. No warranty, whether expressed or implied, is made with respect to any grade, condition, or other adjectival descriptions, which can and do vary, even among experts.

• Large Autograph Group Disclaimer: When dealing with a single individual auction lot containing many items, these lots are offered with the explicit understanding that it is possible that there may be a small percentage which are not authentic. When authenticating large lots, such as a collection of 6,000+ signed 3 x 5 cards, or a set of 700+ signed baseball cards, great care has been taken in the authentication process, with all the greater attention focused on any items representing a concentration of value. It is always possible that on rare occasions a secretarial or stamped signature could be missed here or there. Without this disclaimer, as a practical matter, it would not be possible for MORPHY’S to offer such lots at all. All bidders bidding on such lots do so with this understanding.

• Abbreviation/Definition/Condition Key: PR — Poor, GD — Good, VG — Very Good, EX — Excellent, NM — Near Mint, MT — Mint. NOTE: If an item has a multiple grade such as VG-EX, then that item falls somewhere in between those two conditions.

GOODS MADE FROM OR CONTAINING MATERIALS FROM PROTECTED SPECIES - MORPHY’S does not accept any responsibility or liability for the sale of items containing materials from protected species or for any omission in marking or labeling goods as containing materials from protected species. Such material includes, but is not limited to, ivory from elephants and walruses, tortoise shell, crocodile skin, whalebone, rhinoceros horn, some species of coral and certain woods. Restrictions on the importation, exportation, sale, transfer, and/or possession of goods containing materials from protected species derive from international, federal, and state laws and regulations promulgated thereunder. Laws include, but are not limited to, the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Flora and Fauna (CITES), the Endangered Species Act (ESA) and the Marine Mammals Protection Act (MMPA). States currently restricting trade of protected species include, but are not limited to, California, New York and New Jersey.

Prospective buyers are on notice that several countries completely prohibit importation of property made, all or in part, of protected materials. Some countries require special permits, such as a CITES permit, from the relevant regulating authority in the countries of exportation and importation as well. Potential buyers intending to import the property into another country should be familiar with the relevant customs laws and regulations prior to bidding on goods containing material from protected species. Regulations may vary as the U.S. generally prohibits importation of articles containing material(s) from species it has designated endangered or threatened if the articles are less than 100 years old, subject to certain exceptions.

(continued...)

bidder

Terms & Conditions It shall be the potential buyer’s sole responsibility to research and satisfy the requirements of any laws and regulations that apply to the import and export of property as described in the aforementioned paragraphs. All buyers agree to comply with any and all domestic and international restrictions on the trade of protected species as a condition of the sale. Please note that the ability to obtain an export license or certificate does not ensure the ability to obtain an import license or certificate in another country, and vice versa. It is the buyer’s responsibility to obtain any export or import licenses and/or certificates as well as any other required documentation. MORPHY’S is not able to assist the buyer in attempting to obtain the appropriate licenses and/or certificates, and there is no assurance that an export license or certificate can be obtained. The inability or delay in obtaining permits, licenses or other permissions to import or export goods containing material from protected species will not constitute a basis for rescission or cancellation of the sale of said goods or the delay in payment of purchased items in accordance with these Bidder Terms and Conditions.

JEWELRY AND WATCHES • Jewelry Descriptions and Condition Reports: Lots being offered are sold as-is on the day of sale. Condition reports, either written or verbal, are provided as a courtesy only, and are not to be taken as fact or guarantees of condition or quality of the lots. All information provided is the opinion of the specialist at MORPHY’S, including but not limited to weights, grades, color, and clarity. All gemstones and diamonds are measured and graded in their setting unless stated otherwise. All weights and grades are approximate. Buyers wishing to have a grading or gemological report from an independent, internationally recognized laboratory, such as the Gemological Institute of America (GIA) or the American Gemological Laboratories (AGL), may request one at their own expense or hire an independent adviser of their choosing.

• Watch Descriptions and Condition Reports: The physical characteristics, timing accuracy or functionality of timepieces cannot be guaranteed, and all items are sold as-is. o Any condition statement reflects the condition of the watch on the date of the report. Condition can change from the time of the report to the day of sale. o Photographs are for identification purposes only. Buyers may not use them as precise indications of size or condition. o The origin or authenticity of all components cannot be guaranteed. o Watches with waterproof or water-resistant cases – MORPHY’S may open cases to develop descriptions, and cannot guarantee that any watch is waterproof or water-resistant at the time of purchase.

MORPHY’S recommends that the buyer have a professional watchmaker evaluate the watch at buyer’s expense. o Buyers must be aware that watches may need general service, change of battery, or further repair work for which the buyer is solely responsible. o Dials - All watches have the possibility that after their original date of manufacture they received reconditioning or replacement of dials or elements of the dial such as but not limited to standard or luminescent hour markers, hands, script, date or measurement indices, lacquer, and finish. Buyer is solely responsible for determining and understanding such condition issues.

• The lack of a condition report does not imply that the item or lot is free from imperfections, defects or wear and tear of the aging process. This includes but is not limited to: deficient stones, needed repair or defects.

• It is common and generally accepted in the jewelry industry that some diamonds and most gemstones have been enhanced with various treatments to improve their overall appearance. o These treatments include but are not limited to: heating, dying, oiling, laser drilling, HTHP, wax, bleaching, irradiation, resin or polymer impregnation and various other techniques. o Unless stated in the title, it is assumed that one or more treatments have been performed to the stones. While many treatments are considered permanent, this cannot be guaranteed. o Please note that many treatments cannot be determined without sophisticated laboratory testing. Due to the various laboratories and developing scientific methods for testing, not all reports or certificates will have the same results for treatment type, extent of treatment and stability of treatment. o MORPHY’S makes no representations or warranties, express or implied, as to whether natural stones have been treated or enhanced, whether specifically referenced or not.

• Laboratory reports may accompany some lots o If a lot is accompanied by certificates or reports from internationally recognized and accepted gemological laboratories, it will be noted in the description. o Copies will be available upon request, with the original going to the successful bidder. o The reports cannot be guaranteed and are provided for informational purposes only. Results on reports may differ from laboratory to laboratory. o MORPHY’S accepts no responsibility for the accuracy, terms or information contained in such certificates or reports.

BIDDING RIGHTS & RESPONSIBILITIES

The auctioneer will determine the highest bidder. The auctioneer alone has the right to reopen the bidding of an item if deemed necessary due to a dispute. If there is a tie bid between the floor and Internet or absentee bid, the floor bid takes precedence.

MORPHY’S and its representatives reserve the right to remove those attendees who impede preview and/or the auction. Title to all merchandise shall pass to the highest bidder at the fall of the auctioneer’s hammer. The buyer will then assume all risk and full responsibility of the lot purchased once ownership has changed. We recommend that you arrange insurance for your items immediately upon becoming the highest bidder. MORPHY’S is not responsible for any errors in bids, omissions of bids, or failure to execute bids and shall have no liability to any bidder for any technical or other failure associated with the internet, absentee bidding, or telephone bidding.

• AGENT BIDDING - MORPHY’S will accept bids from an individual agent authorized by a company or another individual. MORPHY’s requires any agent to provide a signed letter of authorization from the buyer of record company or individual allowing the agent to bid on their behalf.

• ABSENTEE BIDDING - MORPHY’S will accept absentee bids if pre-authorized by mail, fax or through www.morphyauctions.com online. Absentee bidders must use the absentee bid form and clearly mark the lot number, title and maximum bid amount. Absentee bidding forms may be accessed online at www.morphyauctions. com. If there are two (2) identical bids placed on the same item, priority will be given to the first bid received. All bids must be (continued...)

bidder

Terms & Conditions left in increments as explained on our bid form. If a bid is “out of increment,” the auctioneer has the right to round the bid up to the next correct increment. Bidders may preview, register and place bids online through our website, www.morphyauctions.com. Invoices will be auto charged to the credit card MORPHY’s has access to and is on file within 48 hours after the end of the sale. If you wish to pay by another method please contact us within 48 hours after the sale. Seller(s) agree to allow the Auctioneer to accept and execute absentee bids in a competitive manner for potential buyers and under the MORPHY’S absentee bidding terms and conditions.

During the live sale, the auctioneer will execute your absentee bid competitively up to the maximum amount you have indicated.

• ONLINE BIDDING - Online bidding through www.morphyauctions. com, Live Auctioneers, Invaluable, Proxibid, or other bidding platforms may be available; all Terms and Conditions still apply. A surcharge will be added for third party online platforms. Refer to your bidding platform of choice for the final buyer’s premium. If there is a tie bid between the internet bidding venues and the floor, the floor bid takes precedence. Invoices will be auto charged to the credit card MORPHY’s has access to and is on file within 48 hours after the end of the sale. If you wish to pay by another method please contact us within 48 hours after the sale. If you are a first-time bidder with Morphy, we do not have access to Live Auctioneers and Invaluable credit card information. Due to our fast-paced auctions and bids coming from floor bidders, phone bidders, internet bidders and absentee bids, the auctioneer has the final word on all item(s) sold. You (the bidder) assume the risk of winning an item online and not having the item actually sell to you.

This is due to the final call of the auctioneer and the operator not being able to re-open that lot. Online bidders are fully responsible for accidental bidding as if they bid normally.

• BID RESULTS – MORPHY’S will only contact successful bidders.

Please allow 24-48 hours post auction to receive your official invoice from MORPHY’S. The invoice will include item, hammer price, premium, packing and handling, shipping, insurance, and any other charges that apply. Please hold phone inquiries regarding bid success until after receiving your invoice. For verifications, MORPHY’S cannot provide winning bid information until the second business day after the auction. MORPHY’S will not provide bidder information to any outside sources.

• TELEPHONE BIDDING - Requests for phone lines must be received at least three (3) days prior to the auction date. MORPHY’S cannot guarantee phone lines but will make every attempt to accommodate those who wish to participate through that method. Phone lines are provided on a first come first served basis. Please visit www. morphyauctions.com or call 717-335-3435 to request a call from our representatives during the live auction.

BID INCREMENTS

Bid increments listed are a general guideline. Actual increments are at the auctioneer’s discretion. If a lot does not receive a bid of 50% of the low estimate, the lot will be passed by the auctioneer. $0 - $500…................$25 $500 - $1,000….........$50 $1,000 - $2,000…......$100 $2,000 - $5,000…......$200 $5,000 - $10,000....…$500 $10,000 +…............... Auctioneer’s discretion

RESERVES

Most of our items are unreserved, but occasionally items may carry a moderate reserve. Please note that when a lot carries a reserve, the reserve is usually somewhere below our low estimate. In the case of a reserved item, the seller has authorized the auctioneer to bid on their behalf until the reserve price is reached.

BUYER’S PREMIUM

A 20% buyer’s premium will be added to all successful bids and is payable by the buyer as part of the total purchase cost. A 3% merchant fee is also automatically applied to all invoices but can be discounted upon payment by cash, check, money order or wire transfer that is received within 7 days from the receipt of the invoice.

If the type of payment is split, invoice will reflect the 3% charge for merchant fees on the entire invoice. In addition, a surcharge will be added for certain third-party online bidding platforms the bidder utilizes. Refer to your bidding platform of choice for the final buyer’s premium.

SALES TAX

MORPHY’S is required to collect sales tax where our company established nexus in the previous year. Sales tax rate will be charged by law on behalf of the state and locality where the customer of record takes possession of their purchase. Lots are subject to all applicable state and local taxes, unless appropriate permits are on file with MORPHY’S including lots delivered to you, or your representative. It is the bidder’s responsibility to know the sales tax rate applicable.

As a convenience, here is a resource to find your applicable sales tax: https://www.taxjar.com/sales-tax-calculator. Bidder agrees to pay MORPHY’S the actual amount of tax due in the event that sales tax is not properly collected due to: 1) an expired, inaccurate, or inappropriate tax certificate or declaration, 2) an incorrect interpretation of the applicable statute, 3) or any other reason. The appropriate form or certificate must be on file at and verified by MORPHY’S five days prior to Auction, or tax must be paid; only if such form or certificate is received by MORPHY’S within 4 days after the Auction can a refund of tax paid be made. Lots from different auctions may not be aggregated for sales tax purposes.

PAYMENT, INTEREST & STORAGE FEES

Any invoice totaling more than $100,000 must be paid within three (3) days. All other merchandise must be paid in full within seven (7) days of the date of the invoice. Payments can be made by going to your account online at www.morphyauctions.com, call 877-968-8880 or mail payment to: Dan Morphy Auctions LLC 2000 N Reading Rd, Denver, PA 17517.

Interest will be charged on all balances not paid at the rate of 1-1/2% monthly (18% APR) effective 30 days from the invoice date. All goods not retrieved by Buyer within 45 days after the invoice date, shall be subject to a daily storage fee as follows: $5/day per regular sized item or $10/day per oversized item. Buyer authorizes MORPHY’s to sell, at their standard commission and consignment contract terms, any goods not retrieved after a 90-day period in any manner deemed appropriate by MORPHY’s and the proceeds will be applied to any outstanding balance due from the buyer.

Any outstanding balance will be auto charged to the credit card on file.

If you wish to pay by another method, please contact us within 48 hours after the sale.

bidder

Terms & Conditions We accept Visa, MasterCard, Discover, American Express, personal checks, certified checks, wire transfers, money orders, and cash.

• Sneakers, Jewelry, Watches, Coin and Currency Items – We accept cash, wire transfer, check, certified checks and money orders only.

No credit cards will be accepted for invoices containing these items.

• CREDIT CARD – We will not accept credit card payment for any jewelry, watch, coin or currency purchases. If a credit card is used as any form of total payment, invoice will reflect a 3% surcharge on the entire invoice. This charge is automatically added but will be discounted if payment is received by cash, check, money order or wire transfer. MORPHY’s reserves the right to refuse to ship to a different address than the billing address on the credit card being used.

• CHECK - There will be a $30.00 service charge for returned checks.

Make checks payable to: Dan Morphy Auctions LLC. MORPHY’S reserves the right to hold items paid for by personal or company check until said check clears (14 days). MORPHY’S has the right to hold all checks over $2,000. Customers who have an established successful buying history with MORPHY’S may be exempt from this requirement. We will accept a personal or company check >$2,000 from a first time buyer if you provide a Bank Letter of Credit, available on our website, www.morphyauctions.com.

• WIRE TRANSFERS – There will be a $30 charge added to all wire transfers less than $2,000. Please add this amount to your invoice total before sending a wire transfer.

In the few situations where a successful bidder does not remit payment when due, MORPHY’S will proceed with the legal steps necessary to protect its interests and will block the bidder from future auction participation.

PACKING/SHIPPING

• It is the bidder’s responsibility to take shipping, handling, and insurance costs into consideration when bidding on items.

• BIDDERS PRESENT AND TAKING ITEMS AFTER AUCTION – Since item liability transfers upon a successful bid, items paid for must be packed, transported and/or removed by the buyer at his/ her own risk after the close of the sale. We recommend that you arrange insurance for your items immediately upon becoming the highest bidder. If any employee or agent of MORPHY’S shall pack or transport the merchandise, it is fully at the risk and responsibility and expense of the buyer. MORPHY’S shall not be held liable for any loss or damage that may be caused by the said agent or employee.

• ITEMS NOT PICKED UP THE DAY OF THE SALE – Packaging, shipping, and insurance on all items that MORPHY’S agrees to ship to locations that can accept shipments will be made available as an added courtesy and at an additional cost. We recommend that you arrange insurance for your items immediately upon becoming the highest bidder. All applicable charges will be applied to the invoice. Shipping will be based on actual costs via UPS, USPS, or other carriers required based upon the contents of the shipment.

Packaging and insurance will vary in cost depending on the items on each invoice. All packages will be shipped with insurance. Oversize and breakable items, which MORPHY’s will indicate on the invoice, will ship based upon the buyer’s arrangement with a 3rd party shipper. MORPHY’s cannot combine standard item shipments with oversize and breakable item shipments. Again, if any employee or agent of MORPHY’S shall pack or transport the merchandise, it is fully at the risk and responsibility and expense of the buyer.

MORPHY’S shall not be held liable for any loss or damage that may be caused by the said agent or employee

• SHIPPING TERMS - MORPHY’S will ship items to the buyer at the listed address via UPS or other carriers, FOB Denver, Pennsylvania or FOB other auction locations. Any risk of loss or damage to the item(s) during transit via UPS, or any other carrier, in excess of the insurance provided by or purchased from MORPHY’S, is at the risk of the buyer. Any additional insurance coverage should be purchased by the buyer through the carrier. Buyer releases MORPHY’s from any and all claims for loss or damage to any item during transit and agrees to pay all costs of defense, including attorney’s fees, for any claims brought against MORPHY’S for loss or damage occurring during transit.

• INSURANCE - Shipping insurance is automatically added, which you can decline by contacting us and providing a signed waiver of insurance form. Insurance for all 3rd party shipments must be arranged through that carrier. Insurance provided or purchased through MORPHY’s applies only to shipments to the United States and Canada. Buyers must purchase their own insurance for shipments to other countries.

• INTERNATIONAL SHIPMENTS – MORPHY’S has the capability to ship to international bidders. By law, MORPHY’S cannot, and will not, declare lesser values for any international purchases and all shipments will include the invoice with purchase totals including the buyer’s premium and shipping cost. All international bidders are responsible for knowing their country’s laws on importing items and for paying all customs and duties on the items.

• 3RD PARTY SHIPPING OVERSIZE ITEMS – Buyers will need to either pick up the items personally or arrange a 3rd party shipping service for oversize items. As a general guideline, the following will indicate which packages apply, as they are of a certain weight, length, or dimensional size.

• Dimensional size is length (the longest measurement) + (height x 2) + (width x 2). For example a 36” x 36” x 12” package = 36 + (36 x2) + (12 x 2) = 132” • USA home shipments must be <70 lbs. and <108” length and <165” dimensional size • USA business shipments must be <150 lbs. and <108” length and <165” dimensional size • International shipments must be <150 lbs. and <108” length and <130” dimensional size • There may be certain shipments that meet these requirements that will still require 3rd party shipping, and we will communicate the reason in those cases.

• 3RD PARTY SHIPPING OF BREAKABLE, DELICATE, FRAGILE ITEMS MORPHY’S reserves the right to choose items and orders that it will pack, ship, and/or insure directly using our shipping department.

Those items that MORPHY’S will not ship will require that the buyer either pick up the items personally or arrange a 3rd party shipping service. Examples of items that may apply after determination by our shipping department include but are not limited to: items with neon of any type (working or non-working), all glass display cases of any size; coin-operated, arcade and vending items with fragile parts and/or glass; signs with parts or protrusions beyond the main body of the sign, oversized vases (guideline – larger than fit in a 20” x 20” x 40” box), high value lamps and glass of all sizes, high value artwork including but not limited to paintings, statuary, sculpture, figurines, dioramas, and other intricate items; and items subject to impact by moisture and known handling issues in the supply chain. Under no circumstances will MORPHY’S be responsible for shipping damage to picture frames of any kind. For any buyers who wish to arrange for their own shipping, MORPHY’S must be notified at least seven (7) days prior to arrival of the shipping company name, arrival date and time. Pickup must be scheduled to begin and end within our normal business hours (9am – 4pm weekdays). Buyers must arrange (continued...)

Terms & Conditions weekend pickups in advance with MORPHY’S staff, and additional charges may be necessary for overtime. All 3rd party shippers must arrive with a copy of the invoice, • STORAGE FEE – MORPHY’S will charge a daily storage fee of $5/day per regular sized item or $10/day per oversized item for any items awaiting pickup for more than 45 days following the invoice date.

AGREEMENT REGARDING GOVERNING LAW, VENUE, AND LEGAL RIGHTS

I hereby understand and agree that any controversy or claim arising out of or relating to MORPHY’S Bidder Terms & Conditions, which includes this provision (hereafter referred to as “Terms & Conditions”), MORPHY’S, or the breach thereof (hereafter referred to as “Claims”), shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Pennsylvania, without regard to its conflict of law provisions.

MORPHY’S failure to exercise or enforce any right or provision of these Terms & Conditions or any other legal rights, shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision. Any waiver of any provision of these Terms & Conditions by MORPHY’S must be made in writing and signed by an authorized representative of MORPHY’S specifically referencing the provision(s) contained within the Terms & Conditions to be waived. Headings used in the Terms & Conditions are for convenience only and are not to be relied upon. If any provision of the Terms & Conditions is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, the parties nevertheless agree that the court should endeavor to give effect to the parties’ intentions as reflected in the provision, and the other provisions of the Terms & Conditions shall remain in full force and effect. These Terms & Conditions will inure to the benefit of, and are intended to be, enforceable by MORPHY’S, its parents, subsidiaries, affiliates, successors, assigns, members, directors, officers, and licensees. There are no third party beneficiaries to these Terms & Conditions; a person or entity who is not a party or signatory to these Terms & Conditions has no rights under the Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Act 1999 to rely upon or enforce any term or provision of these Terms & Conditions.

POST SALE RETURN POLICY

MORPHY’S engages knowledgeable experts to provide catalog descriptions on the merchandise we sell. Every effort is made to ensure those descriptions are accurate and that they fully disclose any exceptions to condition. Any buyer who has made their payment within the due date of 7 calendar days who wishes to report a problem must notify MORPHY’S within three calendar (3) days of receipt of their purchased item. Buyers who have not made their payment within the due date of 7 days may not return any items under any circumstances. No lots purchased by floor bidders (including those bidders acting as agents for others) may be returned. Please refer to MORPHY’S limited guarantee herein. A Return Authorization Number (RA#) must be issued by MORPHY’S before you ship anything back to our address. Any items arriving without a return authorization will not be given a refund. The item in question must be shipped with the RA# on the outside and inside of the package, with full insurance, so it arrives at MORPHY’S within one week of the aforementioned authorization.
