letter from the ceo Bright, blooming flowers; gentle breezes ushered through wide-open windows; – all these things, and more, selfevidently signify spring. They bring to mind thoughts of renewal, and, if you are like me, renovation. Whether a quick decluttering and cleaning, or orchestrating a major house overhaul, as we move from the shadows of the longer, darker days of winter, this season seems to move us to spruce up our homes.

Because my father was a Navy lifer, for my family, renovation meant we were moving again, possibly to housing on a base, or to off-base Navy housing, or to an affordable neighborhood, but always on a serviceman’s salary. One hundred percent of those homes were small, dark, dingy and in need of repairs.

Before moving in, we would first clean thoroughly with a serious scrub and sweep, and disinfect. My mother’s passion for cleaning knew no bounds, and thus, I still loathe linoleum and old stoves with all my hear t. So after an exhausting couple of days of scrubbing, came painting, because we always repainted wherever we moved. To this day, the smell of fresh paint makes me think of the excitement of a new star t.

With the stroke of a brush, our kitchens would transform with a coat of sunny yellow paint. My sister and I shared a bedroom, which was always pink, her choice, and the remainder of the rooms were softened with the perfect shade of linen – never white, never beige, just a subtle but luminous linen.

Once the painting was done and we arranged the furniture, Mom would whip up new cur tains and we were home.

These moves had to have been hard on my mom. However, to me, I welcomed each relocation as an adventure, secure in the knowledge that wherever we moved and whatever we moved into, that safe and welcoming place, with its bright yellow kitchen and our beloved dogs and cats, was home, until the next move. No matter how impermanent, it was where I loved to be.

As I learned growing up and fur thermore as I raised my own children, a home provides more than a protective roof over our heads. It contains our treasured objects and mementos and our prized furnishings, along with our memories. And, therefore, it also provides a kind of protective roof over our hear ts.

If you have decided your cherished home could use a little seasonal sprucing, which might include finding that perfect table, or adding a few more precious collectables, join us at New Orleans Auction Galleries for our March 11th and 12th Auction. It will feature 1,119 items that will surely add some excitement to your own special springtime renewal!

Our March sale features a beautiful painting by William Powell Frith depicting Sancho Panza and Don Quixote, an impressive Gorham Mar telé tea set, a collection of Picasso ceramics, a selection of exceptional Paris porcelain corbeilles, Newcomb pottery and much more.

If you are a jewelry lover, you will enjoy our Sunday morning, which includes a large collection of Elizabeth Locke jewelry from a New Orleans estate as well as a playful Ar t Deco Raymond C. Yard “Rabbit Waiter” brooch from the 1930s.

We are also pleased to offer furniture, decorative ar ts and paintings from the Estate of Carolyn Grant Fay of Houston, Texas and from the Collection of Gail and the Late Gene Miller of Baton Rouge, Louisiana.

We would like to invite you to our preview par ty on March 9th from 5 p.m. to 8 p.m. Join us for drinks and hors d’oeuves while you take a look at our 1,119 ways to welcome spring!

From our home to yours,

Susan D. Sarofim CEO P.S. Make sure to mark your calendars for New Orleans Auction Galleries’ premiere Fine Art Auction on April 22!

Carolyn grant fay HOUSTON, TEXAS

Carolyn Grant Fay was born on Galveston Island in 1914 to John F. Grant and Homoiselle Davenport Randall. The family moved to Houston the following year. She attended The Kinkaid School, at the time still located in Margaret Hunter Kinkaid’s home on the corner of San Jacinto and Elgin streets, from Kindergarten to ninth grade. She then enrolled in San Jacinto High School where she would meet the love of her life, Ernest Bel Fay. Ernest was a frequent guest at her mother’s Sunday night dinners and the two quickly became enamored with each other.

Following her graduation from San Jacinto High School in 1931, Carolyn attended the Madeira School outside of Washington, D.C. Carolyn went on to study at Vassar College while Ernest studied at Harvard. The two visited frequently via train and married in New York City just days after Carolyn’s graduation from Vassar in June 1936. An avid sailor, Ernest left the day after the wedding to sail in the Bermuda Race, a 635 nautical mile sailing race from Newport, Rhode Island to Bermuda. The biennial event is considered the oldest regularly scheduled ocean race. Carolyn followed Ernest on the RMS Queen of Bermuda. During World War II, Ernest was a commander in the Navy. The couple remained together for 50 happy years sailing, dancing, traveling and laughing through life together until Ernest’s tragic death during a sailboat race on Galveston Bay in 1986.

A brilliant and remarkable woman, Carolyn developed a passion for Jungian psychology in mid-life. She studied under Ruth Thacker Fry, a Jungian scholar who had completed three years of study at the Jung Institute in Zurich. In 1958, Carolyn, along with fellow students Alma Lloyd, Ella Winston and Ethel Kurth, founded The C.G. Jung Educational Center in Houston. She served as President of the Board of Trustees for 30 years and made numerous substantial contributions to ensure that The Center would continue to provide for future generations, including the generous donation of the building that houses The Center today.

In addition to Jungian psychology, Carolyn pursued her interest in dance therapy. She studied at the University of Houston, the University of Arizona and received her Masters in counseling and dance therapy from Goddard College. She became a counselor and a teacher, incorporating dance movement and other expressive arts into her work. One of her many lasting contributions to The Center is her creation of the School of Expressive Arts, an exploration of the intersections of dance therapy and Jungian psychology. Carolyn was awarded the Humanitarian Award by The Center in 2014 in honor of her 100th birthday.

Carolyn’s philanthropic contributions did not stop at The Jung Center – she was an influential force in many other causes in the Houston community.

She served on the Board of Directors for The Fay School, the Junior League of Houston, The Mental Health Association of Houston and Harris County and The DePelchin Children’s Center. She was a member of the Texas Corinthian Yacht Club, which she and her husband started with three other couples, Houston Country Club, Bayou Club, Bolero Club, Garden Club of Houston, The Argyle and the National Society of Colonial Dames of America. Carolyn also contributed to The University of Houston, MD Anderson Cancer Center, The Texas Medical Center, Vassar College, Madeira School, The Fay School and the establishment of the Grant/Fay Park in the Texas Medical Center in memory of her parents.

Carolyn resided in the West Eleventh Place Historic District, a community planned in the 1920s by architect J. W. Northrop, Jr., in the Museum District of Houston on a private cul-desac. She died in August 2016 at 101 years old.

New Orleans Auction Galleries is honored to offer fine art, silver, antique furniture, porcelain and more from the Estate of Carolyn Grant Fay.

The Offley family is an historically significant and socially and politically prominent British family. In the late 17th century, Robert Offley inherited the Sheffield County estate of Norton Hall from his heirless uncle. While there is no record of when the first edifice was built upon the estate’s acreage, it is believed to date from before the Norman Conquest of the 11th century; the building presently in situ dates to the early 19th century. One of Robert Offley’s descendants and heirs, Stephen Offley, was named High Sheriff of Derbyshire in 1716. This was a prestigious position, originally integrally involved in law enforcement, but now mainly ceremonial, and it is the oldest secular office under the Crown. A Urith Offley is mentioned in various contemporaneous and slightly later documents as Stephen Offley’s daughter, heir, wife, etc.

Since Stephen and Urith are two of the more prevalent family surnames, and appear across several centuries of the family’s lineage, it is difficult to assert unequivocally that the sitter of this charming portrait is Urith. Through inheritence and marriage, the Offleys were associated with the equally prominent Shore and Nightingale families. One of the 19th century holders of Norton Hall, Offley Shore, was cousin to the Crimean War heroine Florence Nightingale (1820‑1910).

[3000/5000] Illustrated In 1739, Louis XV commissioned Guillaume Coustou the Elder (1677‑1746) to sculpt monumental marbles to flank the pond in the garden of Chateau Marly, the hunting lodge built by Louis XIV after his conversion of the previous lodge into the Palace of Versailles. Coustou’s sculptures of horse tamers and their horses were installed in 1745. The artist, surprisingly for the time, dismissed the allegorical, mythological or historical and instead chose to work from nature, observing the interaction and movement of actual trainers and horses. The sculptures proved immediately popular, and were considered Coustou’s masterpiece. At the height of the Revolution in 1795, at the urging of Jacques-Louis David (1748‑1825), the sculptures were moved to Place de la Revolution (now Place de la Concorde) in Paris, thus saved from the fate of the Chateau which was destroyed by revolutionaries. In 1984, the sculptures were moved a third time, to the Louvre, for conservation and protection and copies put in their place.

Framed. Provenance: Mr. and Mrs. William Allen Mears of the Perry Hotel, Seattle, Washington. Exhibited: Central District, Seattle, Washington, 1912. Published: Seattle Post-Intelligencer, June 5,1912. [1000/1500] Illustrated This stunning study of a Moroccan fishmonger returning from the market at dusk with her basket is a rare glimpse into Regnault's brief sojourn in Tangiers, a city he had intended to return to after buying a home with fellow artist Georges Clairin before his untimely death in the "Battle of Buzenal" during the Franco-Prussian war of 1871.

Regnault's early career was marked by extreme success within the academic traditions of the Paris Salon. After studying under Alexandre Cabanel and Louis Lamothe, he won the coveted "Prix de Rome" in 1866, a prestigious award that guaranteed a three-year scholarship to study in Rome at the expense of the state. Regnault, however, was the first recipient not to complete his studies in Italy, preferring instead the "exoticism" of the North African colony of Morocco.

529

Regnault is best known, not for his Grand Prix entry "Thetis Bringing the Arms Forged by Vulcan to Achilles", but for his Moorish-gypsy inspired interpretation of Salome - the biblical seductress, who ordered the beheading of John the Baptist. Hailed an immediate success at the Paris Salon, the painting captured international headlines again in 1912 after it was auctioned as part of the Carcano Collection for which a bidding war ensued between the Louvre Museum (on behalf of the French government) and a New York art dealer, who was the victorious bidder at $105,000. "Salome" was a tourde-force of "Orientalism" inspired by Regnault's travails in Tangiers. With its Moorish architecture, colorful Berber markets, sun-drenched beaches and stepped coastline off the Strait of Gibraltar, Tangiers captivated 19th-century French artist and writers alike. In the painting offered here, a work contemporaneous with the execution of "Salome", a Muslim woman, lit from behind in orbs of gold and burntorange, walks home along the quay with the last rays of sunlight reflecting off the water and and off the white hijab (head covering) that frames her face. This remarkable study is a vestige of Renault's Moroccan legacy, and a window into the works he would have done.

The provenance behind this painting is as equally impressive. Though no records were found on Lord Menin of Albergaria, the alleged owner of the painting according to the British auction label en verso, the two accompanying 1912 news articles from the Seattle-Post Intelligencer lend credence to this provenance. One of the articles, which is tattered and lacking much of its text, describes this painting at length as belonging to Mrs. W. A. Mears (18451913), a socialite "of the Perry Hotel, of this city", who was the wife of William Allen Mears (1849-1916), the Manager of the Transportation Bureau, New Seattle Chamber of Commerce. The article then states that the painting was acquired (?) from the Uncle of Louis Pinto, the Marquis de Soveral - a Portuguese nobleman, with family ties to Albergaria, a municipality in the Aveiro District in Portugal, and will be exhibited in "...Galleries" in the Central district "as a matter of interest to art..."

Raymond Carter Yard (1885‑1964), the renowned American jeweler, began his career in the trade when he was 13, working as a door boy at Marcus & Co. in New York. By the time he was in his early 30s, he was Marcus’ most sought-after salesman. In 1922, John D. Rockefeller, Jr., an established client, encouraged him to open his own jewelry firm. Mr. Rockefeller recommended Yard to his family and friends, and his business grew exponentially. He began creating some of the most magnificent jewels in the country, using only high-quality gemstones and platinum mountings.

Yard Platinum “Rabbit Waiter” Brooch, ca. 1930s, the whimsical rabbit carrying an articulated ice bucket with champagne, decorated with various enamels and set with various cuts of diamonds, with an approximate total weight of 0.80 carats, and sapphires, emeralds and rubies, with an approximate total weight of 0.40 carats, stamped “YARD, Inc.”, h. 1‑3/4”, 13.0 grams total weight. [30000/50000] Illustrated

The first rabbit brooch appeared in December 1928 and depicted a rabbit in profile wearing a jacket and a top hat, carrying a cane and flower bouquet. His rabbit waiter brooch followed in March 1929. That example, like the one being offered here, depicted the rabbit in a coat, slacks, shoes, and a shirt with a bow tie, carrying a tray with a cocktail shaker, glasses and a towel. These brooches appealed to Yard’s “high society” clientele. Between 1929 and 1931, Yard designed a series of rabbit waiters; however, no two rabbits were the same. Though he retired in 1958, the name Yard is still synonymous today with the highest standards in fine jewelry. These whimsical brooches are highly sought after by collectors and continue to command high prices at auction.

Ernest Bel Fay was born in New Orleans on July 26, 1914, the son of Marie Dorothy Bel and Charles Spencer Fay. In 1936, one week after graduating from Harvard, he married Carolyn Homoiselle Grant of Houston, where the couple settled. In 1938, Fay established, with his brother Albert Bel Fay (1913‑1992), the Seabrook Shipyard, which built submarine chasers and rescue craft during World War II; that same year, they were also founding members of the Texas Corinthian Yacht Club at Galveston Bay. Fay would later become President of the John F. Grant Lumber Company and Vice-President of the Bel Oil Corp., but boat building and racing remained his passion. He first learned to sail with his brother in catboats and leaky 30‑footers in Bay St. Louis, and had his skills refined during his college years at Boston. He was among the earliest U.S. sailors to become enthusiastic about the 5.5 meter class, his first being the Bill Luders (1909‑1999) designed “Sabre”. Completed in 1956, it would become an extremely successful all-around ship, winning numerous cups between 1958 and 1962, including the U.S. 5.5 Meter Championship three times: in 1958, 1960 and 1961. Following that success, Fay designed with Luders his next 5.5 meter, the “Pride”, completed in 1961 and licensed in 1962; it is noted for having won both the Scandinavian Gold Cup and the King Olav Cup in 1966. Fay remained a noted and devoted yachtsman his entire life, dying at the helm on August 16, 1986.

[1000/1500] Illustrated The son of a Hungarian father and American mother (who was a member of the prominent Hunt family of Boston; her father was the acclaimed artist William Morris Hunt), Diederich spent his childhood in Switzerland before briefly attending the Boston Art School and the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts. Formal schooling held little interest for the young man, and Diederich spent several years traveling across the American West working as an itinerant cowboy. He eventually traveled to Africa and Europe, studying in Paris with the great animalier Emmanuel Fremiet. Diederich exhibited in the Paris Salons of 1911 and 1912, and at the Salon d’Automne in 1914.

Upon his return to the United States, Diederich settled in New York City where he began to produce silhouettes, sculptures, and carefully composed iron and metal items. A believer that even the most mundane could--and should--be beautiful, he dedicated much of his career to creating gracefully rendered utilitarian objects, such as fire screens, gates, racks and trivets. Incorporating into his work elements of the various cultures he had encountered during his travels, Diederich was inspired by everything from Native American pottery to Roman architecture. His elegant figural pierced metal pieces were much admired by New York society in particular, and his work was frequently exhibited at the Whitney Studio Club (which evolved into the Whitney Museum of American Art), and Ferargil Galleries, New York, New York.

987 Fine Gorham Martele .958 Silver Coffee Set and Tray, 1919, designed by William Christmas Codman (1839‑1923), made by Nels Olai Nelson Haarklow (1873‑1944), including a coffeepot, h. 10‑3/4”, an open sugar bowl, h. 4‑7/8”, a cream jug, h. 5‑3/4”, and a tray, 15‑1/4” x 12‑1/2”, of baluster form with “whiplash” framed panels and decorated with prunus blossoms, the tray of shaped rectangular form with integral handles and decorated en suite, the tray inscribed on the underside “Annie Gordon Murdock 1919”, 91.78 total t. oz. Provenance: Property from the Collection of Carl Desantis, Sotheby’s New York, November 4, 2011, lot 38; also, Sotheby’s New York, June 17, 1999, lot 242.

[15000/25000] Illustrated Gorham records show that this set - which bears the signature of Gorham’s head of design William C. Codman - was finished on June 7, 1919. The maker of the tray and the name of the chaser(s) are not recorded, but the maker of the set was Nels Olai Nelson Harklow.

(The name appears variously as Neilsen/NelsenNeilson Haarklou/Harklou/Haarklow, but he himself seems to have settled on the anglicized Nels Nelson Harklow in most of the documentation of his adult life.) He was born in Bergen, Norway on February 2, 1873, the son of Andreas Neilsen and Ragnide Rognaldsen, and was baptized twenty-six days later at Korskirken (Cross Church) in Bergen. (Around the time of his birth, the family discontinued the traditional Scandinavian patronymic and adopted the surname Haarklou after the lands inherited by his grandmother and made famous by his uncle, composer Johannes Haarklou (1847‑1925).)

He is listed as a goldsmith at the time of his marriage on December 8, 1893 to Anna Andreas Johannesen and in the 1900 Bergen census, but as there is no record of his having received a trade license, he was very likely still working as a journeyman. Emigration records show that he arrived in New York on September 6, 1902, and he is listed in Brooklyn directories as a silversmith in 1904. He soon moved to Providence, Rhode Island, first appearing in Gorham’s pay rosters in April of 1905, and the birth of his daughter, Ingeborg, is recorded in Providence on August 29, 1905. (Her mother, however, is not Anna Johannesen, but Marie Rasmussen. Anna remained in Bergen, where she is listed as divorced by 1910 and remarried to Ludvig Larsen in 1918. Whether she and Haarklow divorced before his emigration, or on account of it, is not known.) He was naturalized as a U.S. citizen in 1917, by which time he had settled in Pawtuxet Village, Warwick, Kent County, Rhode Island.

He was still working for Gorham until at least 1920, and very probably long after. He died in Pawtuxet on January 23, 1944.

1058

Helen Dranga, a native of Oxford, England, studied at the Kensington College of Art (Royal Art College) before moving to Hilo, Hawaii with her husband and young son in 1901. For the next 27 years, Dranga devoted her life to recording the rich diversity of the Hawaiian shores, flora and inhabitants with a sensitivity and meditative quiescence that appealed to fellow denizens. In the 1920s and 1930s, Dranga’s paintings were regularly featured on the cover of Paradise of the Pacific - a prominent Honolulu magazine in circulation since 1888. In the painting offered here, another rare view of Hawaii is disclosed - white sandy beaches nestled amid a sun-drenched cove lined by volcanic rock on the horizon. White beaches, rare as they are, dot the Hawaiian terrain, making it difficult to pinpoint the inlet or bay from where this oeuvre was painted, since Dranga did travel throughout the islands. Hilo is not known for its white beaches, so this view may have been painted near Honolulu where Dranga spent the last few years of her life.

1. Introduction (a). These Conditions of Sale (“Conditions of Sale”) contain all the terms governing Auctions (defined below) conducted by Cakebread Art Antiques Collectables, Inc. d/b/a New Orleans Auction Galleries (“NOAG”), and all the terms under which NOAG and the Seller (defined below) of a Lot (defined below) contract with the Buyer (defined below).

These Conditions of Sale may be amended by posted notices or oral announcements made during the Auction. (b). Under these Conditions of Sale, the following capitalized terms are defined as follows: • An “Auction” is a public auction conducted by NOAG, at which Bidders may place Bids to purchase one or more Lots offered for sale by NOAG. An Auction takes place over one or more days and includes separate auctions of one or more Lots within an event conducted by NOAG; • The “Auctioneer” is the auctioneer calling the Auction conducted by NOAG; A “Bid” is a bid made by a party at the Auction to purchase a Lot; • A “Bidder” is (i) a person making a Bid at the Auction (whether in person, through an absentee bid, through electronic or internet means, or through telephone bidding); and/or (ii) a person who attends the Auction and registers to make a Bid (whether in person, through an absentee bid, through electronic or internet means, or through telephone bidding); • A “Buyer” is the party that commits to purchase a Lot by submitting the Winning Bid at Auction; • “Buyer’s Premium” is defined in Section 4 below; • “Catalogue” is the Auction catalogue utilized by NOAG to list the Lots offered at Auction; • The “Estimates” are the high and low estimates of value for each Lot set forth in the Catalogue presented by NOAG in connection with the Auction or otherwise set forth and/or announced at the Auction; • The “Hammer Price” for a Lot is the amount of the Winning Bid at the Auction, as announced by the Auctioneer, exclusive of commissions, Buyer’s Premium, expenses, and any taxes or other charges; • A “Lot” is specific item of property offered for sale at Auction; The “Reserve” is defined in Section 3 below; • The “Purchase Price” is defined in Section 4 below; A “Sale” of a Lot occurs when a Winning Bid is declared at Auction for the Lot; • The “Seller” of a Lot is the party who consigned the Lot with NOAG for purposes of selling the Lot, or is otherwise the seller of the Lot; • The “Winning Bid” is, as to a particular Lot, the Bid recognized by the Auctioneer as the highest and best Bid for that Lot.

(c). Except as otherwise stated, NOAG acts as consignment agent for the Seller. The contract for the sale of the Lot is therefore made between the Seller and the Buyer. (d). By bidding at the Auction as a Bidder or Buyer, and/or by your signature below, you agree to be bound by these terms.

2. Before the Auction (a). ALL SALES ARE “AS IS, WHERE IS” WITH NO EXPRESS OR IMPLIED WARRANTIES WHATSOEVER. (i) NEITHER NOAG NOR THE SELLER PROVIDES ANY GUARANTEE OR WARRANTY AS TO THE NATURE, DESCRIPTION, GENUINENESS, PROVENANCE, IMPORTANCE, OR CONDITION OF THE LOT. All Sales and Auctions are without any representation or warranty of any kind by NOAG or the Seller. Bidders and Buyers are responsible for satisfying themselves concerning the condition of the Lots and the matters referred to in the catalogue entry, the Condition Report, or in any other statement or writing provided. All Sales are final and are “AS IS WHERE IS.” (ii) No warranty of redhibition. ANY WARANTY AGAINST REDHIBITORY DEFECTS IS WAIVED AND EXCLUDED. NOAG and Seller provide absolutely no warranty against redhibitory defects, including without limitation: (x) any defects rendering a Lot useless or its use inconvenient; and (y) any defects diminishing the usefulness of a Lot; and any such warranties are waived and excluded. In addition, NOAG and Seller provide no warranties, guarantees, or representations as to whether a Lot is fit for its ordinary use, fit for Buyer’s intended use or for Buyer’s particular purpose. (iii) No warranty against eviction. ANY WARRANTY AGAINST EVICTION IS WAIVED AND EXCLUDED. In the event that Buyer is evicted from possession of whole or part of the Lot, neither NOAG nor Seller have any duty whatsoever to return any part of the Purchase Price to Buyer. Buyer is buying at Buyer’s sole risk and peril as to third parties who may claim rights in the Lot after the Sale. (iv) No warranty as to authorship. NOAG does not make any express or implied warranty as to authorship of works of art and fine art.

No statement in the Catalogue or elsewhere, orally or in writing, shall be construed as an express or implied warranty, representation or limitation of liability as to authorship. Any such warranty is WAIVED. (v) No warranty of peaceful possession, etc. The following warranties are waived and excluded: the absence of hidden defects, peaceful possession, and ownership. NOAG and Seller provide absolutely no warranty that the Lot is free from hidden defects, or for peaceful possession, or for ownership. (vi) No other warranties. None of the Seller, NOAG, or any of NOAG’s officers, employees or agents, give any representation, warranty or guarantee or assume any liability of any kind in respect of any Lot with regard to merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, description, size, quality, condition, attribution, authenticity, rarity, importance, medium, provenance, exhibition history, literature or historical relevance. Except as required by local law, any express or implied warranty of any kind whatsoever is excluded by this Section 2(a). (b). Examination of property / Condition Reports. Prospective Buyers and Bidders are strongly advised to examine personally any property in which they are interested, before the Auction takes place. As a convenience, Bidders may request that NOAG produce a Condition Report (“Condition Report”) for a Lot, which, if produced, will provide additional detail concerning the condition of the Lot as observed

by NOAG’s staff. NOAG reserves the right to decline to produce a Condition Report for any specific Lot, for any reason and in NOAG’s sole discretion.

Rev. 01/04/17

(c). Catalogue and other descriptions. (i) All statements made by NOAG as to condition, authorship, period, culture, source, origin, measurement, quality, rarity, provenance, importance, or historical relevance, whether in the Catalogue entry for the Lot, in the Condition Report, and/ or in a bill of sale, or made orally or in writing elsewhere, are qualified statements of opinion only and are not to be relied on as statements of fact. Such statements do not constitute a representation, warranty or assumption of liability by NOAG of any kind. References in the Catalogue entry or the Condition Report to damage or restoration are for guidance only and should be evaluated by personal inspection by the Bidder or a knowledgeable representative. The absence of such a reference does not imply that an item is free from defects or restoration, nor does a reference to particular defects imply the absence of any others. (ii) Without limiting the foregoing, none of the Seller, NOAG, or any of NOAG’s officers, employees or agents, are responsible for the correctness of any statement of whatever kind concerning any Lot, whether written or oral, nor for any other errors or omissions in description or for any faults or defects in any Lot. (iii) Any Estimates provided should not be relied on as a statement that this is the price at which the item will sell or its value for any other purpose. Any written or oral appraisal, Estimate or other statement of NOAG or our representatives with respect to the estimated or expected selling price of any Lot of Property is a statement of opinion only and shall not be relied upon by Bidders or prospective Bidders as a prediction or guarantee of the actual selling price. (iv) NOAG shall not be liable for any errors or omissions in catalogue or other descriptions of the Property. Neither NOAG nor the Seller is responsible in any way for errors and omissions in the catalogue, or any supplemental material. (d). Further acknowledgement. As a Bidder and prospective Buyer, you further agree and acknowledge that: (i) You are not relying on NOAG’s skill or judgment in selecting to purchase any Lot; (ii) No oral or written statements in the Auction Catalogue, Condition Report, or elsewhere are the cause of or reason behind your purchase of any Lot; and you would have incurred such purchase regardless of any oral or written statements about condition, attribution, kind, quality, value, or authorship made in the catalogue or elsewhere; (iii) NOAG did not and could not have known that condition, attribution, kind, quality, expressed value, or authorship is the cause or reason why you decide to purchase any Lot; (iv) Your purchase of any Lot is not intended to gratify a nonpecuniary interest; and (v) NOAG did not know, nor should it have known, that any oral or written statement about a Lot in the catalogue, Condition Report or elsewhere would cause a nonpecuniary loss to a Buyer.

3. At the Auction (a). Registration before bidding / Bidding requirements. In order to be accepted as a Bidder and allowed to place a Bid, all Bidders must meet all of the following requirements: (i) A Bidder must complete and sign the attached registration form and provide identification to NOAG; (ii) NOAG may require the production of bank or other financial references or any other additional information; (iii) When making a Bid, a Bidder is accepting personal liability to pay the Purchase Price in full in the event that the Bidder submits the Winning Bid, unless it has been explicitly agreed in writing with NOAG before the auction of the Lot that the Bidder is acting as agent on behalf of an identified third party acceptable to NOAG, and that NOAG will only look to that principal for payment (iv) All Bids are to be made in U.S. currency unless agreed upon between NOAG and the Bidder; and (v) At NOAG’s sole discretion, NOAG may require any Bidder to post a cash deposit in an amount set by NOAG at its sole discretion. Such deposit may include, without limitation, a deposit of 25% of the Maximum Bid (or another amount set in NOAG’s sole discretion) in the case of Absentee Bids (defined below). (b). Refusal of admission / Rejection of Bidders. NOAG has the right, at its complete discretion, to refuse admission to the premises or participation in any Auction. NOAG reserves the right to reject any Bidder for any reason whatsoever and in NOAG’s sole discretion. (c). Absentee bids / Telephone bids. (i) As a convenience to Bidders, NOAG may allow a Bidder to submit an absentee bid (“Absentee Bid”) or telephone bid (“Telephone Bid”) by filling out (in full) the section of the attached registration form marked “Absentee Bids / Telephone Bids.” In order to submit an Absentee Bid or Telephone Bid for an Auction, that registration form must be filled out and submitted to NOAG no later than 5:00 p.m. central time on the last business day before the commencement of the Auction. (NOAG reserves the right to accept late Absentee Bid or Telephone Bid submissions in NOAG’s sole discretion.)

All Absentee Bid submissions must include a maximum bid amount (“Maximum Bid”). (ii) If an Absentee Bid is submitted and accepted, at the time of the auction of the affected Lot, the Auctioneer or other NOAG staff will place the Absentee Bid at the amount of the opening bid amount, and will increase the amount as necessary until the earlier of (x) the Absentee Bid is the Winning Bid; or (y) the amount reaches the Maximum Bid. All such actions in this paragraph are at the sole discretion of the Auctioneer and/ or NOAG. If NOAG receives Absentee Bids on a particular Lot with identical Maximum Bid amounts, and at the Auction these are the highest bids on the Lot, the Lot will be sold to the person whose Absentee Bid was received and accepted first. In the event of a tie bid between an Absentee Bid and a Bid submitted by a Bidder physically present at the Auction (or a Telephone Bid), the Lot will be sold to physically present Bidder (or bidder submitting the Telephone Bid).

Rev. 01/04/17

(iii) If a Telephone Bid is submitted and accepted, at the time of the auction of the affected Lot, NOAG staff shall attempt to contact the Bidder using the telephone number provided. If successfully contacted, the Bidder shall then be afforded the opportunity to place a Bid on the Lot by telephone. Telephone Bids may be recorded. By submitting a Telephone Bid, the Bidder consents to the recording of the conversation and the placing of the Bid.

4. After the Auction (a). In order to consummate and complete the Sale, the Buyer must tender payment in full of all of the following amounts (all such amounts together being the “Purchase Price”) to NOAG: (i) the Hammer Price; and

(iv) Execution of Absentee Bids and Telephone Bids is a free service undertaken subject to other commitments at the time of the Auction and neither NOAG nor the Auctioneer shall have any liability for failing to execute an Absentee Bid or Telephone Bid or for errors and omissions in connection therewith.

(ii) the “Buyer’s Premium” consisting of a premium of 25% of the Hammer Price (discounted to 22% if the method of payment is by check, cash, or wire transfer [subject to a $30 fee for domestic wires and a $60 fee for international wires] by the end of the day on the fifteenth calendar day following the conclusion of the Auction) up to and including a Hammer Price of $200,000 and 10% of the amount by which the Lot’s Hammer Price exceeds $200,000; and

(d). Video or digital images. At some Auctions there may be a video or digital screen. Errors may occur in its operation and in the quality of the image and we do not accept liability for such errors.

NOAG reserves the right to video tape and record proceedings at any Auctions. Any personal information obtained will be held in confidence by NOAG but may be used or shared with our affiliates and marketing partners for customer analysis purposes and to help us to tailor our services to buyer requirements. Any Bidder attending an Auction in person who does not wish to be video-taped may make arrangements to make a Telephone Bid in accordance with Section 3(c) above.

(iii) Any applicable Louisiana, state, local, and federal or other taxes, calculated as required by law. Any documentation of tax exemption must be provided by the Bidder contemporaneously with the execution of the attached registration form.

(e). Reserves. All Lots are offered subject to a reserve, which is the confidential minimum price below which the Lot will not be sold (the “Reserve”). The Reserve for a Lot will not exceed the low Estimate for that Lot. 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. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Lot may be sold at a Hammer Price below the Reserve, at the discretion of the Auctioneer and NOAG, in any manner consistent with the agreement between NOAG and the Seller. (f). No bidding by Seller. Under no circumstances shall Seller (as agent or principal), whether by itself or through its representatives, employees or agents (except as through the Auctioneer as set forth in Section 3(e) above), enter or cause to be entered a Bid on Seller’s Lot. (g). 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 or divide any Lot, to combine any two or more Lots, and in the event of any error or dispute, to determine the Winning Bid, to continue the bidding, to cancel the Sale or to reoffer and resell the Lot or item in dispute. If any dispute arises after the Sale, NOAG’s sale record is conclusive.

Unless otherwise announced by the Auctioneer at the time of Sale, all Bids are per Lot as numbered in the Catalogue and no Lot shall be divided for Sale. NOAG and/or the Auctioneer may withdraw any Lot at any time before such Lot is offered at Auction, for any reason and in their sole and absolute discretion. (h). Successful bid and passing of risk. The Auctioneer shall have absolute discretion in determining the Winning Bid and the striking of the Auctioneer’s hammer marks the acceptance of the highest and best bid as the Winning Bid and the conclusion of a contract for sale between the Seller and the Buyer.

Risk and responsibility for the Lot but not its title passes to the Buyer immediately upon announcement of the Winning Bid at the Auction. (i). Post-auction sale. In the event that there is no Winning Bid at Auction for a Lot, or the Lot is withdrawn from the Auction, or the Sale is cancelled for non-payment pursuant to Section 4(g) below, NOAG may sell the Lot at public or private sale at any time thereafter, in a manner consistent with the agreement between Seller and NOAG. (j).

NOAG assumes no responsibility for failure to execute Bids for any reason whatsoever.

(b). Payment and passing of title. The Buyer and any other Bidders are responsible for contacting NOAG for Auction results during the week after the conclusion of the Auction. Subject to the provisions of Section 4(i) below which may require earlier payment, the Buyer must pay the full Purchase Price no later than 4:30 pm central time on the fifteenth calendar day following the conclusion of the Auction.

Payments may be submitted during business hours to: New Orleans Auction Galleries, 333 St. Joseph Street, New Orleans, Louisiana 70130, Telephone number: 504-566-1849. Payments may be made by certified check, cash, wire transfer, or credit card (Visa, Mastercard, and American Express). Payments will be accepted by non-certified check only in NOAG’s sole discretion, from Buyers that have been qualified by NOAG in NOAG’s sole discretion. Title to the Lot does not pass to the Buyer until the full amount of the Purchase Price has been tendered and received by NOAG in good cleared funds, even in circumstances where the Lot has been released to the Buyer. (c). Credit Cards. Your signature on this form constitutes permission to charge the full amount of the Purchase Price on your credit card, if you are the Buyer on a Lot and payment is not received within five business days of the close of the Auction. Your signature on this form also constitutes permission to charge the full amount of Storage Charges (defined below), if and when accrued, on a periodic basis on your credit card. (d). Release of Lot to Buyer. No Lot will be released to the Buyer unless and until NOAG receives full payment of the Purchase Price, and such payment has cleared and NOAG has received confirmation of all funds owed. At its sole discretion, NOAG may release a specific Lot at any time, notwithstanding the foregoing provision. In addition, NOAG may require that Lots not be released until the Buyer has cleared additional checks in NOAG’s sole discretion, including without limitation, any anti-money laundering or anti-terrorism financing checks to NOAG’s satisfaction. In the event that a Buyer fails to complete any anti-money laundering or anti-terrorism financing checks to NOAG’s satisfaction, NOAG shall be entitled to cancel the Sale and take any other action permitted or required under applicable law. In addition, notwithstanding the foregoing, Lots cannot be released until after the conclusion of the Auction. (e). Export/Import license and Dealers. It is the Buyer’s sole responsibility to obtain any relevant export or import license. The denial of any license or any delay in obtaining licenses shall not justify the rescission of any sale nor any delay in making bill payment for the Lot; and shall not limit or alter any of the obligations of the Buyer herein. Dealers purchasing for resale must enter appropriate their Dealer Resale Number on the attached registration form and provide NOAG with proper documentation.

Rev. 01/04/17

(f). Storage charge. Subject to the foregoing provisions, any Lot that is not picked up by the end of the day on the fifteenth calendar day following the conclusion of the Auction is subject to an additional storage charge of $5.00 per Lot per day (“Storage Charge”) for as long as the Lot is stored at NOAG’s facilities. The outstanding amount of this Storage Charge must be paid in full (in addition to the Purchase Price) before such Lot will be released to the Buyer. Such Storage Charge accrues on a daily basis and is billed monthly.

All items handled or stored will be at the Buyer’s risk. NOAG is not liable for any damage to Lots after the conclusion of the Auction. (g). Remedies for non-payment. If the Buyer fails to make payment in full of the Purchase Price in good cleared funds within the time required by Section 4(b) above, or payment in full of any applicable Storage Charge when incurred, NOAG shall be entitled in its absolute discretion to exercise one or more of the following rights or remedies (in addition to asserting any other rights or remedies available by law): (i) to charge outstanding amounts to the Buyer’s credit card; (ii) to charge interest at the rate of one and one-half percent (1.5%) per month (but not to exceed the highest amount chargeable under applicable law); (iii) to hold the Buyer liable for the total amount due and to commence legal proceedings for its recovery together with interest, legal fees and costs to the fullest extent permitted under applicable law; (iv) to exercise any other remedy or remedies available under the law, including but not limited to a second sale of said item in accordance with the provisions of applicable law, including the subsequent enforcement of any deficiency against the initial buyer; (v) to cancel the sale; (vi) to resell the property publicly or privately on such terms as we shall think fit; (vii) to pay the Seller an amount up to the net proceeds payable in respect of the amount bid by the defaulting Buyer; (viii) to set off against any amounts which NOAG may owe the Buyer in any other transactions, the outstanding amount remaining unpaid by the Buyer; (ix) where several amounts are owed by the Buyer to NOAG, in respect of different transactions, to apply any amount paid to discharge any amount owed in respect of any particular transaction, whether or not the Buyer so directs; (x) to reject at any future Auction any Bids made by or on behalf of the Buyer or to obtain a deposit from the Buyer before accepting any Bids; (xi) to exercise all the rights and remedies of a person holding security and/or privilege over any property in our possession owned by the Buyer, whether by way of pledge, security interest or in any other way, to the fullest extent permitted under Louisiana law (including without limitation under La. Civil Code art. 3247, La. R.S. 10:7-209 and 10:7-210 and other applicable law), or (xii) to take such other action as NOAG deems necessary or appropriate. In connection with the item (xi) above, the Buyer will be deemed to have granted such security to NOAG and NOAG may retain the affected Lot and any property of the Buyer as collateral security for such Buyer’s obligations to NOAG and to the Seller

If we resell the property under Section 4(g)(vi) above, the Buyer shall be liable for payment of any deficiency between the total amount originally due to us and the price obtained upon resale as well as for all costs, expenses, damages, legal fees and commissions and premiums of whatever kind associated with both sales or otherwise arising from the default. If we pay any amount to the Seller under paragraph (vii) above, the Buyer acknowledges that NOAG shall have all of the rights of the Seller, however arising, to pursue the Buyer for such amount. (h). Shipping and packing. All shipping, packing, and transportation of Lots from NOAG’s facilities is the responsibility of Buyer. NOAG may, as a courtesy, assist Buyer with necessary arrangements, but by doing so, NOAG assumes no responsibility or liability for shipping, packing, moving, or transportation, including without limitation damage to Lots, damage to Buyer’s vehicle, or any personal injury of any persons involved. (i). Earlier payment may be required. For any specific Lot, and notwithstanding the provisions of Section 4(b) above, NOAG may require, in its sole discretion, that the Hammer Price for the Lot be paid immediately upon the striking of the Auctioneer’s hammer and announcement of the Winning Bid, with the balance of the Purchase Price being due by the close of the Auction.

5.Copyright The copyright in all images, illustrations and written material produced by or for NOAG relating to a Lot including without limitation the contents of the Catalogue, is and shall remain at all times the property of NOAG and shall not be used by the Buyer or Bidder, nor by anyone else, without our prior written consent. NOAG and the Seller make no representation or warranty that the Buyer of a Lot will acquire any copyright or other reproduction rights in it.

6. Severability If any part of these Conditions of Sale is found by any court to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, that part shall be discounted and the rest of the conditions shall continue to be valid to the fullest extent permitted by law.

7. Data Collection In connection with the operation of our auction business, NOAG may need to seek personal information from Bidders or obtain information about Bidders from third parties (e.g., credit checks from banks). Such information will be processed and kept by us in confidence. Some of Bidders’ personal data may also need to be shared with third party service providers (e.g., shipping or storage companies) for Bidders’ benefit. By participating in an Auction, you agree to all previously stated disclosure.

8. Law and Jurisdiction The rights and obligations of the parties with respect to these Conditions of Sale, the conduct of the Auction and any matters connected with any of the foregoing shall be governed and interpreted under the laws of the State of Louisiana. By bidding at the Auction and/or through execution of the attached registration form, the Bidder consents to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the State of Louisiana and the Federal courts of the United States of America located in the Eastern District of Louisiana.
