Contract� & Letter� Rare and verbose Brando letter revealing

dissatisfaction with domestic life in Hollywood 180

Marlon Brando

Spirited ALS signed “Mar,” one page, lightlylined yellow legal paper, 8.5 x 14, postmarked June 18, 1956. Brando writes to actor Eddie Sherman, in full: “Thanks so much for the note. I just can’t tell you what a fine fucking time I had. It was one of the big gasses for me and I’ll always remember it. When I finish the picture I’m going to try to get back for a week or two. That’ll be in about two months. I just can’t get over how many pleasant people I met there. After having lived in the scuffling suburbs for about fourteen years it was a big relief to meet people who were happy enough to leave themselves unprotected. It was just great Eddie and I want to thank you sincerely for giving us such a wonderful time.

I’m sending you a couple of things and I hope you like them. Please give everyone a good rimming for me especially my little nigger,” adding the post-script, “I got the passport and stuff—thanks.” Three horizontal mailing folds, a central vertical fold, and scattered light surface and corner creasing, otherwise fine condition. Accompanied by the original mailing envelope, partially addressed in Brando’s hand. In 1956, Brando had recently been named the number one box-office star in Hollywood, and used his considerable sway with the studio to lobby for and win the lead role in The Teahouse of the August Moon, a satire on the US occupation of Japan. He spent the first part of 1956 working on the Japanese island of Okinawa filming the picture. Some viewers of the film were so convinced of his performance as the Japanese interpreter Sakini that they asserted Brando wasn’t in the picture and demanded their money back.

A forthright letter embodying Brando’s brash persona. Pre-certified PSA/DNA and RR Auction COA.…(MB $300)

Hepburn offers George Cukor her

opinionated critique of Oliver 181 Audrey Hepburn ALS signed “Audrey xx,” eight pages on seven light blue sheets (on the last page she uses both sides), plus an additional postscript page, 6 x 7.75, personal letterhead, January 6, 1964. Hepburn writes legendary film director George Cukor to express her interest in a role in Oliver and offer several ideas on how to improve it. In part: “Family and festivities have come and gone, a glorious sunny snowy time was had by all—it was the Christmasiest View all 8 pages at www.RRAuction.com Christmas I have ever known…Am all excited by the idea of ‘Oliver’ if you were to do it. As you know Harold asked me to see it explaining that the girl was no great shakes as a part but that it could be rewritten. I went to it and enjoyed the show but with a skeptical view of doing it—as usually a part ‘is not there’ for a good reason, there is none. Watching the show I found the performance in general stale, they all seemed to have done it too often, with the exception of ‘Fagan’ played by Clive Revill whom I thought was brilliant and highly entertaining.

In all I felt much much more can be made of the piece. The girl I find could be more human, have far more warmth for and relationship with the Boys—and be more one of them, the ‘pickpocket with heart of gold’ so to speak. I think she could have more spirit and much more humor, the girl ‘yammered’ a bit too much for my liking. The Baubles and Bill Sykes are badly cast—the first could be jollier less sinister and Sykes should be a brute but physically more attractive. You may wonder why I want to play the girl as the boy and Fagan are the whole cheese.

But she could be fascinating if you see it too, if you and Mel don’t then I am wrong about the possibilities. The movie should be Hogarthian, Dickensian, sepia, moody and real. The score is not superb…it should be a story, where the music and songs are incidental, not a MUSICAL as such…I know how frantically busy you are and I may kill myself if I have wasted your time. The prospect of doing another with you is what may have persuaded and coloured my reaction! We’ll see!” Hepburn has underlined several words for emphasis. In fine condition, with a light paperclip mark along top edge.

Cukor and Hepburn had just finished My Fair Lady together when she sent this letter concerning re-teaming with the director. The perfect vehicle, she believed, was Oliver!, at the time in the midst of a 774-performance run on Broadway. However, ‘Eliza Doolitle’ still stung from the realizations that the majority of her songs in My Fair Lady had been dubbed by Marni Nixon, despite a lengthy vocal preparation for the role. Shouldering what she saw as the blame for not being able to vocally play the role, Hepburn suggested that a role in Oliver! be re-written for her, making the female part “more human” with “far more warmth for and relationship with the Boys—and be more one of them, the ‘pickpocket with heart of gold.’” After seeing the Broadway play, she believed that the film version “should be a story, where the music and songs are incidental,” as opposed to being a musical. The motion picture version of Oliver! was released in 1968…as directed by Carol Reed and without Hepburn’s participation. A lengthy and insightful look into the beloved actress’s commitment to her craft. Pre-certified PSA/DNA and RR Auction COA.…(MB $200)

One-of-a-kind archive of

Taylor’s early letters to Hopper 182

Elizabeth Taylor and Hedda Hopper

Breathtaking archive of correspondence from Taylor to Hedda Hopper, the pioneering Hollywood gossip columnist, as well as some of Hopper’s personal papers related to Taylor. Most important are early letters and cards, dated between 1946 and 1954, six of which are signed by Taylor, outlined as follows: ALS inside a Christmas card, signed “Elizabeth Taylor,” one page both sides, 4.5 x 5.5, no date but circa late 1946. In full: “I hope you have a happy happy Xmas and a New Year. I want to thank you for being so nice to me—for all the nice things you write about me in your newspaper. Someday I would like too [sic] come to see you and bring my new pet chipmunk ‘Nibbles’ to see you. He is so sweet. You would love him and so would your little dog.” Her experiences with the chipmunk led her to write, illustrate, and publish a book entitled Nibbles and Me. ALS signed “Elizabeth,” four pages on two adjoining sheets, 5 x 4, personal letterhead, February 2, 1948.

In part: “Thank you for the wonderful paragraph you had about me, in your column today. When I arrived in ‘makeup’ this morning (at eight o’clock) everyone came rushing up to me, asking me if I had read it…Mother dashed out to buy a paper and we were so thrilled and happy when we read it. Hedda you have always been so wonderful to me and I do so appreciate it…I was so glad you mentioned ‘Young Bess’ because I want to do it more than anything in the world. Mr. Franklyn [sic] has promised to test me for it— and has promised to work with me on the test, just like it was a production—oh it is such a wonderful part. I hope I get it! I closed in ‘Date with Judy’ last Wednesday morning—and started with ‘Julia Misbehaves’ in the afternoon. That’s the way I like it.

It’s such fun. Everybody is so nice.” Accompanied by the original mailing envelope, addressed in Taylor’s hand. Despite Taylor’s unbridled enthusiasm for the role, Jean Simmons was selected to play Young Bess in the biopic about the early life of Queen Elizabeth I. An original invitation to Taylor’s first bridal shower to be held on April 2, 1950, in the Sun Lounge at the Beverly Hills Hotel, in anticipation of her forthcoming marriage to Conrad ‘Nicky’ Hilton. Invitation indicates that the shower was being organized by Helen Rose, an MGM costume designer who also created Taylor’s wedding dress.

ALS signed “Elizabeth,” three pages on two adjoining sheets, 5 x 4,

floral letterhead, no date but postmarked April 4, 1950. Taylor thanks Hopper two days after her bridal shower. In part: “I just can’t thank you enough for that gorgeous lace scarf you gave me—it’s the prettiest thing I’ve ever seen.” Accompanied by the original mailing envelope, addressed in Taylor’s hand, including her name and return address on the flap.

Thank-you card signed “Elizabeth,” 3 x 4, no date but postmarked February 21, 1955. In part: “The clock is lovely. It’s the only one we have in the nursery.” Accompanied by the original mailing envelope.

Taylor gave birth to her second child, Christopher, just one week after sending this note.

Easter card featuring chicks gathered around hat full of eggs, signed “Elizabeth & Mike (Wilding),” 4.75 x 6.25, no date but circa 1954.

Inside, Taylor writes: “This looked so much like you that I just couldn’t resist it.” A nice example of Taylor’s sense of humor, as Hopper was known for her large and flamboyant hats.

Handmade Christmas card featuring an affixed image of Taylor in ‘Courage of Lassie,’ 5.25 x 8, no date. Inside, Taylor uses festive inks to write: “Merry Xmas and a Happy New Year from Elizabeth Taylor.”

Also of interest are seven TLSs to Hopper from her father, Francis Taylor, six from 1941 and one from 1949, related to the beginning of Taylor’s career, one including a glossy 8 x 10 publicity photo of her at age nine; an original candid snapshot of Hopper with Francis Taylor is also present, as well as an ALS from her mother, Sara. Included as well are over a dozen original typescripts and drafts of Hopper’s work related to Taylor, including articles and interview transcripts, many of which bear pencil corrections and notations. Finishing off the archive are an abundance of Taylor–related articles clipped from newspapers, dated between 1947 and 1956. Contents of archive are generally in overall fine condition.

All together, this is an amazing assemblage of items chronicling Taylor’s growth during an early period of her career, as well as her relationship with Hopper. These letters offer an extraordinary insider’s view of Taylor’s career—from her early cinematic successes and failures to her first marriage in what would become a legendary caravan of husbands, her life and work are superbly represented.

“I know you will be marvelous in ‘Gypsy’ and I am only sad that we cannot be there for your opening” 183

Grace Kelly

ALS signed “Love—Grace,” one page both sides, 6.25 x 6.25, Palais de Monaco letterhead, November 23, 1973. Letter to actress and friend Dolores Gray. In full: “What wonderful news. I am very happy for you and send many warm happy thoughts for your opening in London. I know you will be marvelous in ‘Gypsy’ and I am only sad that we cannot be there for your opening—It will be an exciting occasion & I will be thinking of you on the 17th.

I must go to Wash. D. C. & Phila. mid Dec. & will just be returning here at that time for all of our Christmas parties for old & young—I hope it won’t be too long before our next trip to London & we can come & see you—God bless!” Matted and framed, so both sides can be read, with the original mailing envelope, addressed in Kelly’s hand, to an overall size of 10.25 x 15. In fine condition, with a bit of scattered light soiling to second page and envelope and the mat obscuring a few letters at the end of each line of text on the front.

Kelly had originally been cast to star along with Gray and James Stewart in the 1957 film Designing Women. However, her engagement to Prince Rainier prevented her from taking the role, which instead went to Lauren Bacall. Despite her inability to become a breakthrough star on the big screen, Gray had a very long and successful career on the stage in London and in New York. In late 1973, she replaced Angela Lansbury in the London revival of Gypsy, as Lansbury moved on to New York to play the same role. Gray would eventually replace Lansbury there as well, returning to Broadway again. A wonderful letter of support from the former actress, who never quite cut all her Hollywood ties.

This was all very interesting to me since I just returned from a P. A. Tour with ‘To Hell And Back,’ and as you might guess, the picture deals in great part with the Anzio Beachhead.

In full: “Will you kindly authorize your accounting department to forward to me each week, if possible, a statement of the proceeds from my last picture They Knew What They Wanted and on all pictures in the future. I should like them to show on each statement not only the weekly proceeds but the totals to date.” In fine condition, with punch and staple holes to top, a horizontal mailing fold through tops of a few letters of signature.

Hepburn’s contract for The Animal Kingdom, the play from which Leslie Howard had her fired

197 Katharine Hepburn Very early DS, two pages, 8.5 x 17, November 6, 1931. Equity Minimum contract between Hepburn and Charles Frohman, Inc. for Hepburn to appear in the role of Daisy Sage in the play entitled The Animal Kingdom, for a salary of $250.00 per week, with the first performance commencing on December 21, 1931. Signed at the bottom of the first page by Hepburn and also signed by manager “Gilbert Miller.” A crossed out pencil notation across the top reads, “after 3rd wk 200/wk + 1% gross.” Matted and framed to an overall size of 14 x 22. In fine condition, with expected light document wear.

In the summer of 1931, Hepburn was approached by Philip Barry to appear in his new play alongside Leslie Howard. Despite Hepurn feeling this role would propel her to stardom, Howard disliked the actress and she was unceremoniously fired just five days later, even though Barry had written the role of Daisy for Hepburn. It was believed that when she showed up for rehearsals in high heels, she towered over her co-star, much to his dismay. She contacted Berry after her termination, and, despite a knock to her confidence, she found a bit part in another production. As rehearsals began, she received an offer for the lead role in The Warrior’s Husband, which proved to be her breakout performance. An important document which began Hepburn’s climb to becoming a stage and Hollywood legend. Provenance: Sotheby’s 2004, Property from the Estate of Katharine Hepburn, 2004.

Origina� Manuscript� & Script�

Newman’s remarkable hand-notated working script for his 1973 con man classic, The Sting

212

Paul Newman

Newman’s working script for the 1973 film The Sting, 8.5 x 11, 129 pages, labeled on the front cover, “Final Draft Screenplay / The Sting / No. 02062 / December 14, 1972,” with the Universal Studios logo below. Script is notated throughout by Newman on approximately 35 pages, with a few of his questions about the plot jotted down on the final page, reading: “Pg 14, 20, 26, 27. Work on the cards.

Did Lonnigan ever pay Gondorff the fifteen grand? Evelyn Woods. Does the whole Loretta stuff work—gunman, etc.”

Commenting on a scene within the script, he comments on a character’s actions, “I think Coleman got his six biggest haul yet and decides to go straight,” and criticizes some of the dialogue as “soft.” He again offers an idea on page 26, adding, “Shouldn’t a line tip Hooker to try & get Luther on the phone, see 26.” On the reverse of another page, he comments at length: “No I lammed it around a bunch of bohunk towns—Due kick ahead of the G-men.

Still would be if Billie hadn’t set me up here.” Later on, he adds a direction after one of his pieces of dialogue— ”Laugh,” emphatically underlining it below. On one of the most interesting pages, he questions the motivations of his character multiple times: “More needed here. The con of Hooker & hook Gondorf…how does Hooker get Gondorf to go the the [sic] hustle? Charm? Potential? Gondorf should have more a sense if laying low and Hooker has to drag him out of hiding or retirement or whatever. Not in here now. Gondorf should have more a sense of laying low and Hooker seduces him into going the big con.” In the scene where they discuss the ‘big con’ central to the plot, Newman notes next to his dialogue, “No but we can sink him with the wire,” and “Suck him a little on the cards then would think the wire on ponies would sucker any poker nut.” In fine condition, with some expected wear from on-set use such as a few light stains and small tears to a few pages.

One of Newman’s most successful pictures, The Sting went on to be nominated for ten Academy Awards, winning seven—including Best Picture and Best Original Screenplay. Starring Newman as Henry ‘Shaw’ Gondorff and Robert Redford as Johnny ‘Kelly’ Hooker, two professional grifters, the film revolves around a complicated plot to con mob boss Doyle Lonnegan, played by Robert Shaw. Most of the notations in this script relate to these three characters, seeking to clear up any questions about their motivations and anticipating potential discrepancies in the plot—an apt demonstration of Newman’s thorough dedication to his craft and his quest for excellence. Although the initial script imagined the Gondorff a bit differently—he was older, more burly—screenwriter David S. Ward modified it after Newman expressed interest in the role, tailoring it to his style. Ward later reflected, ‘At the end of the day, I knew Newman would just do his thing—and that was better than anything I could come up with.’ Pre-certified PSA/DNA and RR Auction COA.…(MB $500)

There is mention of an Assistance League several times in these books. The Assistance League was the first non-profit orginization in the West and still exists today. Anne Banning, a prominent member, whose signature is in the book borrowed the money to purchase a house for their first headquarters. In this house, the Assistance League had a thrift shop, trousseau shop, the Treasure Chest, an art gallery, and a tea room in the attic. The Attic Tearoom of Hollywood began in the attic of League headquarters. Meals were prepared for executives and actors who worked at the nearby studios. Such rising stars such as Anne Miller, Shirley Temple, Norma Shearer, and Mary Pickford served as volunteer waitresses who donated their tips to the League.

The books themselves are in good condition, obviously handled from obtaining the signatures, with most of the pages fully- or partially-detached from the binding. The pages themselves are in very good to fine condition, with some pencil name notations near some of the signatures, and some staining to the edges of Book Two’s pages, affecting just a small handful of signatures.

Marilyn Monroe

Gorgeous vintage matte-finish 11 x 14 photo of Monroe in a low-cut dress and diamond jewelry reclining on a pillow, circa 1953, signed and inscribed in blue ballpoint to choreographer Jack Cole, “Jack— you certainly can—and I’m not mad! Marilyn.” In fine condition, with some light silvering and showthrough due to mounting remnants on reverse and a few scattered light creases. Provenance: Sotheby’s, 1979; The Jack Cole Collection of Books and Pictures on The Dance, part of lot 107. Accompanied by catalogs from Part I and II of the Cole Sotheby’s auction.

A long-time choreographer, Cole worked with the likes of Betty Grable and Rita Hayworth. Cole was responsible for helping Marilyn develop her on-screen personality, and coached her in her role as Lorelei Lee in Gentlemen Prefer Blondes. Normally very difficult and demanding, Cole was much more patient when working with the actress, going over her work time and time again. In Diamond’s Are a Girl’s Best Friend, Cole avoided placing too much stress on Marilyn, using his dancers to help carry the number and create one of her most iconic performances. In all Cole worked on five of Monroe’s pictures, with this lovely portrait a sign of the legendary actress’s great love and respect for his help. Pre-certified PSA/DNA and RR Auction COA.…(MB $2500)

In full: “I just can’t tell you both how I enjoyed meeting you. I want to thank you for everything, for I had a wonderful time.” Under her signature Marilyn adds a brief postscript which reads, “P.S. Berniece, I will write to you soon.

Towards the end of October 1944, Norma Jeane had become increasingly lonely with first husband Jim Dougherty’s constant departures with the Merchant Marines and decided to embark on a railroad trip.

First, she visited her half-sister Berniece and her family in Detroit— an important event—and the first time since childhood she had the chance to see her. As quoted in The Secret Life of Marilyn Monroe, Berniece recalled their initial meeting: “Norma Jeane had written to tell me what kind of outfit she’d be wearing and what color it would be…I wondered which one of us would recognize her first…well there

This supremely scarce ALS—the first Norma Jeane letter we’ve ever offered—is written in her unique childlike scrawl, mirroring her youthful, wholesome life before her transition to Marilyn Monroe. A few weeks later she would step in front of her first camera, resulting in her breakthrough appearance in Yank magazine. This exact letter is featured in renowned biographer J. Randy Taraborrelli’s book The Secret Life of Marilyn Monroe. Pre-certified PSA/DNA and RR Auction COA.…(MB $900)

The sisters truly connected and had a wonderful time together, touching upon their rocky family history and mutual mother, the mentally troubled Gladys Baker. Afterwards, Norma Jeane moved on to Chicago, as evidenced by the colorful picture side of this postcard, to see her previous caretaker and beloved mother figure Grace Goddard. It was from there that she took the time to mail this note in eager thanks for her sister’s hospitality.

Astoundingly moving letter

to director Billy Wilder in which Miller paints an eerily accurate caricature of his wife for her Misfits role 272

Marilyn Monroe: The Misfits

Historically significant TLS signed “Arthur Miller,” six pages, 7.25 x 11, personal letterhead, March 13, 1958. Letter to Billy Wilder. In part: “The central preoccupation of the story is with what the title implies—the lack of a fruitful connection between people and the world they live in…Among these men and in this environment, Roslyn is the catalyst. She too has been betrayed—by a husband who could live without ecstasy, by a life that had no beauty, by people who uphold moral conventions in order to conceal their illicit desires and actions. She is that idiot, in Dostoevski’s sense, whose childhood has never ended. She is a poet without words who must always make those about her uneasy until they have hurt her. In another context, another story, she is that thing of beauty which exists in order to be destroyed. She is a misfit in every sense but one—she cannot help committing herself.

With her, to feel is to act. Her object in staying on here after the time required to get a divorce is to achieve indifference…I add now that in the present script I have perhaps not given as much of her past as a true impression of her requires. She is a girl out of a broken family, neglected by her mother whose husband deserted her when Roslyn was a child. She has struggled between two opposing forces—on the one hand an inevitable sense of her own worthlessness, on the other, an awareness of her beauty, a confidence in it, and at the same time a conviction that she is fated to be always cast aside and humiliated…Gay’ s advice to her is, ‘Roll with it.’

Her reply is that she always did but cannot seem to anymore.

In terms of her character this may require more development, I am not sure. It means that throughout her life, she could float from one relationship to another, many times ending them condemned and cast out by her partner, but always returning to life with gaiety, humor, interest. Once married, however, she could not so easily walk away once she had been humiliated. So that her decision to divorce represented an inchoate, instinctive choice whose repercussions she is living through in this story-the choice to refuse the role of the victim once and for all.” In fine condition, with punch holes to tops of each page.

The similarities between Marilyn and her Misfits character Roslyn are startling: a broken family life, a low self-worth dependent upon the adoration of others, an inherent childlike emotional state, and the mirroring of her own significant problems with her husband Arthur Miller; the likeness is not

“She is that thing of beauty which exists in order to be destroyed.

She is a misfit in every sense” surprising given the circumstances. When Miller initially began to write the screenplay, he experienced a debilitating case of writer’s block, discarding his first draft and placing blame on his wife. A friend of Marilyn at the time recalled, ‘Marilyn blamed herself for his lack of vision…she feared she no longer inspired him.’ Originality so eluded Miller that he sculpted a cruel caricature of Marilyn, further agitating her fragile mental state. Marilyn’s makeup artist Allan ‘Whitey’ Snyder once recalled, ‘There were so many script changes in her part that Arthur made so often, she became less and less happy with her role and character…he had written a movie that seemed very personal, that drew from elements of the real Marilyn’s personality and her relationship with him, so that made it even more difficult to her…there were lines in that movie that were straight out of her experience with Arthur Miller.’

In this impressively articulate letter, Miller wrote of Roslyn that “her decision to divorce represented an inchoate, instinctive choice whose repercussions she is living through in this story-the choice to refuse the role of the victim once and for all.” Perhaps, subconsciously, this is what the playwright wished for his own troubled wife. She would, unfortunately, only continue to spiral out of control, especially after their real-life divorce, passing away four years later in August 1962. This volatile film-making experience would be Marilyn’s last completed role. Pre-certified PSA/DNA and RR Auction COA.…(MB $200)

Jud� Garlan�

12-year-old Judy signs with her older sisters for her best friend, the earliest such example we have ever seen

273

Judy Garland

Fabulous, one-of-a-kind, extremely early vintage pearl-finish 8 x 9.75 photo, circa 1934, of the three Garland sisters by Bloom of Chicago, signed and inscribed in fountain pen by Garland “To Dorothy from the Garland Sistes [sic], Baby Frances,” and also signed by her sisters “Jimmie,” and “Janie.” In very good to fine condition, with scattered creases, mild rippling along top edge, soiling over beginning portion of inscription, as well as a couple of minor spots, and some light silvering and surface impressions.

Garland’s given name was Frances Gumm, and her nickname was ‘Baby,’ hence her signing “Baby Frances.”

This unique photo, taken by Bloom of Chicago, was from one of the first official photograph sessions of the three Gumm sisters, when Judy was a mere 12 years of age. It was most likely photographed during the time of the Chicago World’s Fair when the sisters were in town performing in the late summer of 1934. It was also in Chicago in August of 1934 that a monumental turning point in Judy’s career occurred when George Jessel suggested the sisters change their last name to Garland. As you can see in this signing, Judy seems to be between names as she signs her original first name “Frances” and her newfound last name of “Garland.”

The amazing inscription makes this photo all the more interesting as it is made out to “Dorothy,” how ironic that five years later a role of the same name would catapult Garland into stardom. “Dorothy” was Dorothy Gray a fellow child actress and Judy’s best friend at the time. Accompanied by a photo of this item’s original recipient, Dorothy Gray, and a photocopy of a newspaper article in which Gray is identified as Judy’s best friend. Once in a lifetime chance to own the earliest Garland signed photo we have ever encountered, a must have addition to any accomplished vintage Hollywood collection.

Disne� & Animatio� Unique sketch featuring the cartoon characters that started it all,

Mickey Mouse and Oswald the Rabbit 354

[Walt Disney]

Incredibly rare original vintage signed and inscribed pen and ink sketch of Mickey Mouse and Oswald the Lucky Rabbit on an off-white 7 x 9 sheet of parchment-type paper, presented to Universal Studios founder Carl Laemmle on the 20th anniversary of the building of Universal Studios. This drawing and signature, though not in Disney’s hand, was done under Disney’s direction by artist Hank Porter. Sketch shows Mickey walking towards Oswald waving his hand, with Oswald looking fairly unhappy at seeing Mickey as he has his hands on his hips. Inscribed underneath, “To Carl Laemmle—In memory of the days when I produced Oswald for Universal—Best wishes always, Sincerely, Walt Disney.” Sketch is dated in the lower left by the Laemmle family, “Oct 1, 1935.” In very fine condition.

Disney had created the Oswald character while working for Universal in 1927, and he quickly became a major hit, competing in popularity with the likes of Felix the Cat. Seeing this success, Disney tried to renegotiate his contract to no avail, and decided to sever ties with Universal set out on his own—this meant leaving behind his beloved creation, Oswald. In order to compete, he decided to come up with another character, and thus Mortimer Mouse—now Mickey—was born. When Steamboat Willie debuted in 1928, Mickey quickly surpassed Oswald in popularity and Disney didn’t look back. This sketch is especially interesting as it is probably the only one featuring both Mickey and Oswald, since the characters were owned by separate companies. The humor of Disney’s somewhat insincere sentiment directed at his former boss, as well as the image of an enthusiastic Mickey greeting the perturbed Oswald, make this a superb piece steeped in cartoon history.

Rare 1948 ‘Mousecar’ award

presented to Disney employee Bernie Cobb 355

Walt Disney

A seldom-seen ‘Mousecar’ award presented to Disney employee Bernie Cobb. Walt Disney felt that since he was the only one of the many company employees singled out for Academy Awards and other accolades, he created an in-house award to recognize the important contributions of his key personnel who worked on projects, participated in community service, or for long-term employment.

The first went to his brother Roy Disney. Walt called the initial version the ‘Mousecar Award’ (a play on the Academy’s “Oscar”), with the first being presented in 1940. The award features a six-inch tall, solidly cast metal humble-looking Mickey statue with an enamel coating that gives the impression of an aged bronze patina, all mounted upon a round Academy-standard Bakelite base that is 2.5˝ tall. This Mousecar’s shiny brass plaque reads, “With Thanks and Best Wishes to Bernie Cobb, Walt Disney 1948.” In fine condition, with a few missing paint flecks. Company awards such as this are quite rare and seldom come to auction, and this example represents possibly the oldest known ‘Mousecar’ available. RR Auction COA.…(MB $300)

‘Hyperion-style’ Duckster meant for longtime Disney Studio employees 356

Walt Disney

A Disney Hyperion-style ‘Duckster’ award. These statues were distributed at a special ceremony sometime in the early-1970s to longtime studio employees who had been with the company continuously from the days when the studio was located on Hyperion Avenue in Hollywood. Award stands on a wooden base, measures approximately 9.5˝ tall, with a “WDP” copyright stamp on the back of the right foot. In fine condition. These awards on wooden bases were given after Walt died to honor those living survivors of the original Hyperion Studio before the move to Burbank in 1939. They originally had decal labels which are most often removed as families and aged recipients, did not want it known they had sold the statue.

Most experts agree, these date to a dinner in 1973. RR Auction COA.…(MB $200)

“I also ask of you again for information as to what you are doing with the song, ‘The Wedding Party of Mickey Mouse’” 357

Roy O. Disney

TLS, one page, 8.5 x 11, Walt Disney Productions Ltd. letterhead, October 9, 1931. Letter to Charles Lang of Bibo-Lang. In part, “I cannot understand your continued silence…I am in receipt of a letter from Robert Teller, Sons & Dorner…tendering a statement showing a balance of $1,349.22 due for the printing of this Mickey Mouse book. You agreed to make payments to them of some monies…Evidentally you have not been doing this. If you expect to continue doing business with us you must realize that your silence and inattention to the above matter is jeopardizing our cordial relations. I must demand that you make a full account to us of the monies you have received in New York…I also ask of you again for information as to what you are doing with the song, ‘The Wedding Party of Mickey Mouse’ and wish to remind you that you have no license from us to promote this song. Please snap out of it and give this your attention.” In fine condition, with several rusty paperclip and staple marks and light toning. After seeing success in the sales of some Mickey Mouse notebooks in 1928, Walt decided that merchandising was an excellent new way to raise money for the company and gain publicity for his studio’s characters. They began signing licensing agreements, one of the earliest of which was with Bibo and Lang. Over four different printings, the back cover illustration would be also very slightly altered and used on the cover of The Wedding Party of Mickey Mouse sheet music book, to which Roy Disney refers in this letter to the publisher. Superb content showing the earliest merchandising dealings of Disney’s burgeoning empire. Pre-certified PSA/DNA and RR Auction COA.…(MB $200)

The Phantom of the Opera screenwriter begins his tenure at Universal in 1923

393 Phantom of the Opera: Raymond Schrock Screenwriter (1892–1950) who wrote 155 films, including Universal’s Phantom of the Opera. DS seven pages, 8.5 x 13, March 8, 1923. Employment agreement between Schrock and Universal Studios. The studio hires Schrock as “a continuity and scenario writer, and writer of original stories.” Contract is for one year, with Schrock receiving a salary of $300.00 per week. He also agrees to not work on any non-Universal projects without permission, assumes no ownership to anything he writes, and he may be loaned out to other studios if necessary. Agreement also provides two one-year extensions, with Schrock’s salary eventually reaching $500.00 per week. Signed on the last page by Schrock and also signed by studio president Carl Laemmle. Schrock has also initialed the document twice on the second page. Agreement is still stapled into its original legal folder. In fine condition, with expected document wear.

Schrock would be with Universal from 1923–1926, with his most famous work coming in 1925 for his adaptation of Gaston Leroux’s novel Phantom of the Opera. Universal president Carl Laemmle was presented a copy of his book, which the studio head read in one night, and immediately purchased the film rights with Lon Chaney in mind for the Phantom. The first cut of the film opened to mixed reviews, with Schrock and Elliot Clawson re-writing several scenes, for a second release, and again the film was panned. Finally, a third cut was filmed and released in the fall of 1925 to rave reviews on both coasts. Despite production issues, including Lon Chaney and director Rupert Julian barely on speaking terms, the film was a financial success, and pushed Universal to green light a long string of horror classics, including Dracula, Frankenstein, and The Wolf Man.

Unpublished notes

on Clarke’s loving recollections of Clive, Whale, and “Dear unforgettable Boris” from the set of the iconic horror film 407 Frankenstein: Mae Clarke Two letters to Clark from Art Ronnie at 20th Century Fox concerning his attempts to get a story by Clarke published in various magazines, both with notations by Clarke, as well as a 14-page unpublished typed manuscript entitled, “Frankenstein Remembered,” written by Ronnie and Clarke, also notated by Clarke. A letter dated October 14, 1969, reads, in part, “Unhappily, the Times turned down the three page story I boiled this down to. Said there was no room, I knew this from the beginning…But it was worth a try.” At the bottom of the page, Clarke writes, in pencil, “Replied:—I said: Ronnie keep trying—it is good work, and you deserve your writer’s dollars for it. As for me—I’m not disappointed because I no longer care for, or seek publicity on only past performance. I’m more interested in ‘now’ happenings for myself. MC.” The manuscript recounts the filming and production of Frankenstein, including thoughts on Boris Karloff, Colin Clive, and James Whale. Excerpts include, with Clarke’s handwritten pencil notations in brackets: “James Whale was British and so was Colin Clive. [Boris Karloff and celebrated Mr. Frederick Kerr who played the elderly Baron Frankenstein.]…Jim Whale would say about Colin ‘His voice is like a pipe organ’…[I was twenty-one—a very good year—and Colin’s voice was very near…! Dear unforgettable Colin.]” Later on the story recounts the controversial scene between little Maria and the Monster, including excerpts from the script, “It is the moment when he finds the little girl playing beside a lake in the forest. Unfortunately, the key scene of the monster throwing the girl into the water was scissored when audiences reacted adversley,” with Clarke adding, “She shows no fear. He shows no ferocity. Would he perhaps have been docile if he had not been goaded? But then we would never then have our monster.” Story also recounts working with Karloff in an important scene, “The audience is saying ‘Turn around, Elizabeth!’ But I don’t. [They screamed with me—But my scream made history and was coupled with Fay Wray’s scream when she met up with King Kong.]…I asked Boris if he knew any tricks that would help me. ‘Remember,’ he said ‘when I am coming at you to keep your eye on my up-camera little finger. I’ll keep wiggling it. Then you’ll know it’s only Boris underneath all this makeup…Fortunately for me, Boris didn’t forget to wiggle his finger. [Dear unforgettable Boris.]” On the final page, Clarke adds a short thank you note to the writer, signing “MC.” The pages are all bound together with tape along the left edges, with the final page affixed to the inside of the folder. In fine condition.

Released in 1931, Frankenstein received critical acclaim as one of the year’s best films, as well as recognition as one of the greatest movies of all time. Clarke’s honest revelations about her co-stars and director and fond recollections are obvious as she notates Ronnie’s article. One of the most controversial parts of the film is when the Monster throws little Maria into the water after watching her throwing flowers into the lake, with several state censorship boards cutting the scene in half. Her account of Karloff easing her tension of their scene together is a story not known by many. Amazing and unpublished first-hand memories from the last surviving major cast member.

Vintag� Costume� & Prop�

Wayne’s Rio Lobo costume,

including a signature stockade coat, all from Wayne’s estate 441

John Wayne

Costume worn by John Wayne as Colonel Cord McNally in the 1970 film Rio Lobo. Costume consists of a slate blue long-sleeve cotton shirt, with a Western Costume Co. label which reads “No. 2869-3 / John Wayne #1 / Chest 48 1/2 / Sleeve 36 / Collar 17 5/8” together with a pair of light brown cotton pants, also bearing a Western Costume Co. label which reads, “No. 2466-2 / John Wayne / Waist 40 1/2 / Inseam 33.” Accompanied by a brown heavy-weight cotton stockade coat, with corduroy collar and cuffs, four large flap front pockets (one pocket has two pin holes where a badge would have been), and a four button front closure (though one is missing), American Costume stamp on inside right sleeve.

The trademark stockade jacket, blue shirt and tan pants, were all worn by Wayne in his final collaboration with legendary director Howard Hawks.

Wayne wore the same costume pieces in many of his films from the early 60s. The pants date from that period, and were worn in El Dorado, with the jacket dating from the same period. The shirt is one from his cavalry uniform, which has been stripped of the yellow shoulder epaulets and front pockets. This same shirt was also worn in the 1969 film, The Undefeated. The distinctive stockade coat, recognizable by the rounded corners of its collar, can also be seen in one scene from Big Jake—where Wayne first meets Richard Boone at the campsite. This was one of four stockade coats he wore in nine of his last 11 films, with the label having been removed by his costumer Luster Bayless after Wayne’s death to prevent the jacket from being stolen. Such complete costumes from Wayne’s westerns are seldom offered for sale. All pieces originate from the John Wayne Estate Sale. RR Auction COA.…(MB $1000)

Screen-worn suit

He simply replies that he is just an ordinary guy and knows what ordinary guys like to see. In fine condition. Cagney’s own background as a struggling vaudeville song-and-dance man made him the ideal choice to play Cohan, and it allowed him a break from the tough-guy gangster roles that made him a household name early in his career.

One of Dean’s favorite sweaters, borrowed from Jerry’s Tavern in New York, while appearing in The Immoralist, his final stage role

Dean pictured here in a similar sweater

457

James Dean

Dean’s personally-owned and -worn sweater.

Red heavy knit crew neck sweater has a Sporthaus Witting Innsbruck label sewn into the collar. Accompanied by a letter of authenticity from David Loehr, curator of the James Dean Memorial Gallery which reads, in part: “This…sweater was worn by the screen legend while a struggling actor in New York. He had borrowed it one night from a tavern owner a few months earlier, and inadvertently left it at the home of actor and acquaintance John Gilmore during a visit in February 1954. At the time, Dean was performing in The Immoralist and testing for East of Eden. Earlier, in November 1953, Dean had worn the sweater to rehearsals for an episode of the television anthology series Armstrong Circle Theatre, where he used it to cause trouble by keeping it bunched over his lower face while delivering his lines, much to director James Sheldon’s consternation.” Also included is a two-page letter of provenance from John Gilmore, which reads, in part: “Jimmy left the sweater at my apartment…in February, 1954. He was doing the play, The Immoralist, with Geraldine Page. He was also testing for East of Eden at Warner’s New York offices. This was a secret he swore to keep, with Kazan; not an entirely awkward task for Jimmy, since ‘secret-keeping’ was a favorite occupation with him. He wore a sweatshirt, with a maroon sweater slung over his shoulders, the arms tied at his neck…He was very tense, excited, and kept jiggling his feet during that visit, no doubt very agitated to do with his secret. He removed the sweater from his shoulders, but failed to take it with him when he left…Skip Lowe, a singer and mutual acquaintance…recalls the sweater had been ‘loaned’ to Jimmy by Jerry of Jerry’s Tavern in October 1953. Jimmy had been in the tavern wearing a tee-shirt, and according to Skip, ‘it was [expletive] freezing.’ Skip recalls that the read sweater had a ‘European’ label which Jimmy was more impressed with.”In fine condition.

At this time in his career, Dean was appearing on Broadway in The Immoralist, starring Louis Jourdan and Geraldine Page. He was cast as Bachir, the Arab houseboy, and garnered favorable reviews from all of the area newspapers for his portrayal. Even though Dean left the production after two weeks, the role brought him to the attention of Elia Kazan, who had begun casting for East of Eden, Dean’s first major film role.

Screen-worn in his famous Shakespearean role as Mark Antony 470 Julius Caesar: Marlon Brando Screen-worn costume pin worn by Brando to fasten his toga in the 1953 film Julius Caesar. Pin was hand-crafted by MGM artists for this purpose and consists of a gold-colored 2.5 x 3 oval pin with a purple stone set into the center, surrounded by a raised design alternating between cones and pyramids. In fine condition, with light general wear and a few slight chips to the purple area. Accompanied by an original lobby card for Julius Caesar in which this pin is visible on Brando’s toga, as well as a letter of provenance.

Playing Mark Antony in the MGM adaptation of Shakepeare’s play, Brando’s most memorable moment from the film is the scene in which he delivers the work’s famous monologue—one of the most famous speeches in literary history. The letter of provenance is from actress Vanessa Brown and describes the history of the piece, in full: “The gold buckles with the purple stone was hand crafted by the artists of Metro Goldwyn Mayer for holding up the toga of Marlon Brando, who starred in the MGM film ‘Julius Caesar,’ directed by Joseph Mankiewicz. It came into my possession from the marketing director in New York in 1951, who was my friend and had these (there were other objects, as well) objects in his office. They had been sent to him by the publicity department of MGM in Hollywood.

To help him in his exploitation of the film ‘Julius Caesar’ in New York City, my friend, the marketing director, knew that I collected odd things, and since he was thru with them; the New York run was completed, he gave me the buckle that Marlon Brando wore in the film, when he was delivering his famous oration ‘Friends, Romans, and Countrymen, lend me your ears.’” A few inaccuracies are present in this letter: while Brando does wear the pin in the film, a different one is worn during the scene mentioned; and the discrepancy between the year of the film’s production and the 1951 date in her letter must have been a typographical error or misremembered, as it was written much later. A universally acclaimed film, Julius Caesar won the Academy Award for Best Art Direction and Brando was nominated for Best Actor in a Leading Role. As an immediately recognizable screen-worn item from Brando’s important role, this is an exceptionally desirable piece of cinematic history. RR Auction COA.…(MB $300)

Award� & Persona� Effect� Bachrach’s 1947 Academy Award medal for still photography

—a true rarity

516 Ernest Bachrach Academy Award for Still Photography Revered photographer (1899–1973) of Hollywood’s ‘Golden Age’ who was the still photographer for King Kong and Citizen Kane as well as most of RKO’s classic output. He was especially well-known for his portrait studies of great actors and actress, including a series of color shots of Marilyn Monroe; also admired for his versatility, Bachrach’s production work on King Kong is noted for the various effect shots and composites he produced both for continuity and the promotional campaign. Extremely rare Academy Award medal, measuring 1.75˝ in diameter, given to Bachrach in 1947 for his work on Crossfire and The Farmer’s Daughter. Front features the words “Annual Still Photography Medal” and an Academy Award statuette in relief, with text to the reverse reading, “Academy of Motion Picture Arts & Sciences, First Award to Ernest A. Bachrach For Outstanding Achievement, 1947, Class 10.” In fine condition with some scattered tarnishing (most noticeable near the word ‘medal’ on the front).

Only two other medals such as this are known to exist, one awarded to Merritt Sibbald in 1941 and the other to Scotty Welbourne in 1942. Bachrach’s medal is unquestionably the most desirable, as he was one of the most prominent Hollywood photographers of the period; today, his work is arguably the most collectible of any of his peers. The other known awards were also sponsored by the Public Relations Institute, while this example was directly presented by the Academy and features the same wording that appears on the famous Oscar statuette. In addition to Bachrach’s importance as a photographer, official awards from the Academy of Motion Picture Arts & Sciences are nearly impossible to obtain, and the extreme rarity of this particular medal makes this a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

The first scrapbook begins at the very outset of Brando’s much-lauded Hollywood career, featuring two pages of items related to his very first screen role—the bitter paraplegic veteran in 1950’s The Men. Later, the book celebrates Brando’s iconic role in The Wild One, with a spread highlighted by myriad images and promotional material, as well as various clippings—including a headline that mentions the movie’s mixed impact on the motorcycle subculture.

This is followed by an incredible 11-page record of his renowned, Oscar-winning performance as Terry Malloy in On the Waterfront. Sayonara is then prominently featured with numerous color images and brief but fascinating articles. The second book, equally impressive, begins by documenting Marlon’s directorial debut in One-Eyed Jacks—the only film he directed, probably, as one caption points out, because he “finds it tiring.” Later come six pages dedicated to his most storied role as Don Corleone in The Godfather, with numerous articles and one especially interesting full newspaper page with images and a headline that exclaims, “Exclusive.” Completing this section are pieces about his controversial rejection of his Godfather Oscar, instead using the platform to bring the issues of Native Americans to a nationwide audience. A robust and well-illustrated portion following shortly thereafter honors his excellent and memorable portrayal of Kurtz in Apocalypse Now; the second scrapbook then closes with brief mention of The Formula. Though sparsely filled, the final scrapbook—with just eight full pages—is most scandalous of all, because it offers a look into Brando’s love life. With the likes of articles entitled, “He Still Prefers Foreign Girls,” “Marlon and Trouble,” and “The Brutal Loneliness of Brando,” the final book offers the most intimate, personal details of the entire collection. In overall fine condition, with toning to some items due to adhesive and a few pieces detached from pages. Accompanied by a letter of provenance from Marlon Brando’s business manager and lifelong friend JoAn Corrales. As Brando kept these scrapbooks in his home for many years, they must have been some of his most treasured mementos from a lifetime of hard work and passionate dedication to film. A most unique and extraordinary collection. RR Auction COA.…(MB $300)

527

Marlon Brando

Marlon Brando’s thick personal phone book, 7 x 9, consisting of a three-ring binder containing typed pages of contact information for his various associates. Especially interesting names contained within the book are Christian Brando, Paramount Studios Camera Department, Larry Flynt, Buddy Hackett, Michael Herr, Christopher Walken, Harvey Weinstein, Anthony Quinn, Oprah Winfrey, James Woods, Alan Dershowitz, the Academy of Motion Pictures, Alec Baldwin, Robert DeNiro, Johnny Depp, Leonardo DiCaprio, Faye Dunaway, Jane Fonda, Robert Duvall, Jack Nicholson, Ed Norton, Sean Penn, Robert Redford, Elizabeth Taylor, John Travolta, Quincy Jones, Michael Jackson, Elia Kazan, Spike Lee, David Lynch, Russell Means, Madonna, Gabriel Garcia Marquez, Karl Malden, Toni Morrison, Paul Newman, Debbie Reynolds, Oliver Stone, Martin Sheen, Barbra Streisand, Ted Turner, Bernardo Bertolucci, Francis Ford Coppola, and John Frankenheimer.

A few more pages are dedicated to information about his computer and HAM radio call sign. In overall fine condition, with some small tears to pages and expected wear from use; pages have also been removed from binding rings due to overflow. Accompanied by a letter of provenance from Marlon Brando’s business manager and lifelong friend JoAn Corrales. Fantastic associations abound within this book—it is essentially a microcosm of Brando’s entire life and career, with entries like director Elia Kazan representing his early Oscar-winning role in On the Waterfront, and Coppola symbolizing his later classics like The Godfather and Apocalypse Now. Additionally, his personal and political interests are reflected in the book—from Native American activist Russell Means to his eco-friendly Tahitian getaway. An absolutely astounding peak into the life of the screen legend. RR Auction COA.…(MB $200)

Complete Lone Ranger costume worn by Moore during personal appearances in the 1960s. Costume consists of: a light blue wool western-style long-sleeve pullover shirt with a lace-up V neck, an 11˝ zipper to left side, with a Velcro crotch strap. Shirt bears a “Nudie’s Rodeo Tailors, North Hollywood, Calif.,” maker’s label; a matching pair of light blue wool pants, with a zipper front, tapered legs, and white stirrups, with a Nudie’s label sewn into waistband; a red polyester western-style necktie, 45˝ long, with a “Western Neckwear by Ray Smoot, Los Angeles, California,” maker’s label sewn inside; an off-white Stetson cowboy hat, made of beaver hide, size 6 5/8, with a black leather chinstrap and is stamped in gold in the inner rim, “Nudie’s Rodeo Tailors, North Hollywood, California,” and “John B.

Contemporar� Productio� & Poster� Important archive of Schrader’s papers

from the production of his Japanese masterpiece, Mishima 802 Mishima: A Life in Four Chapters Archive of material from the estate of Academy Award–nominated screenwriter Leonard Schrader that follows the genesis and production of his 1985 Japanese-language film Mishima: A Life in Four Chapters, which was based on the life and work of novelist Yukio Mishima. First is an item from the inspiration of the film, a rare signed Japanese softcover limited edition artist print of Behind the Closed Door, numbered 402/525, 8.5 x 10.75, signed on a free end page in Japanese in blue ballpoint by Yukio Mishima.

The film’s conception is represented by the Englishlanguage material present in the archive, the first being a typed film treatment for Mishima by Paul and Leonard Schrader, 14 pages, outlining their purpose and offering a synopsis of the plot; this is followed by a brief typed draft, 26 pages, identified on the title page as “Exhibit B, ‘First Draft Script’”; an additional 46-page draft reveals substantial revisions to “Exhibit B” in addition to the increased length; and a final English script, presumably a final or close-to-final draft, nearly triples this in length, totaling 108 pages.

Perhaps most interesting are four working scripts in Japanese, 9.5 x 9.25, 176 pages, three bearing a few handwritten notations inside, and one heavily annotated on nearly every page, with many additional handwritten note sheets stapled within. Notes are untranslated yet demonstrate immense dedication to the film’s production.

The final items come from post-production work, and include 12 glossy 6.5 x 4.75 photos showing various aspects of the seppuku scene, a press folder containing 14 glossy 10 x 8 promotional stills from the movie and over 50 pages of information about the production, and a thick spiral-bound press kit. Also included is a hardcover Japanese edition of the 1986 Mishima book, 5.25 x 7.5, 270 pages, signed and inscribed in Japanese on the first free end page to Len and Chieko Schader by the film’s star, Ken Ogata.

Yukio Mishima is considered one of the most important Japanese authors of the 20th century, and the film does him justice—director Paul Schrader once said, ‘It’s the one I’d stand by—as a screenwriter it’s Taxi Driver, but as a director it’s Mishima.’ An extraordinary archive that demonstrates the impressive depth with which the Schrader brothers approached the film.

Terms and Conditions of Sale TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF SALE - AGREEMENT BETWEEN R&R AUCTION COMPANY, LLC AND BIDDER

BY EITHER REGISTERING TO BID OR PLACING A BID, THE BIDDER ACCEPTS THESE CONDITIONS OF SALE AND ENTERS INTO A LEGALLY, BINDING, ENFORCEABLE AGREEMENT WITH RR AUCTION. The following terms and conditions constitute the sole terms and conditions under which R&R AUCTION COMPANY (“RR Auction”) will offer for sale and sell the property described in the Catalog. These Conditions of Sale constitute a binding agreement between the Bidder and RR Auction with respect to the auction. By bidding at auction, whether in person, through an agent or representative, by telephone, facsimile, on-line, absentee bid, or by any other form of bid or by any other means, the Bidder acknowledges the thorough reading and understanding of all of these Conditions of Sale, all descriptions of items in the Catalog, and all matters incorporated herein by reference, and agrees to be fully bound thereby.

NO BID MAY BE PLACED IN ANY MANNER UNLESS THE BIDDER HAS FULLY REVIEWED AND AGREES TO ALL OF THE “CONDITIONS OF SALE” EITHER PRINTED IN THE CATALOG OR ONLINE, AS WELL AS THE TERMS OF THE REGISTRATION FORM. BY PLACING ANY BID, THE BIDDER REPRESENTS AND WARRANTS TO RR AUCTION THAT HE OR SHE HAS FULLY REVIEWED AND AGREES TO BE BOUND BY ALL OF THESE “CONDITIONS OF SALE” AND THE TERMS OF THE REGISTRATION FORM. WITHOUT SUCH REPRESENTATION, WARRANTY AND AGREEMENT, RR AUCTION WOULD NOT PERMIT THE BIDDER TO BID. Bidder and RR Auction agree that any agreements between the Bidder and RR Auction including but not limited to these Conditions of Sale are entered into in Boston Massachusetts, Suffolk County, which is where the agreements are to be performed and the auction to take place, no matter where Bidder is situated and no matter by what means or where Bidder was informed of the auction and regardless of whether catalogs, materials, or other communications were received by Bidder in another location. Both RR Auction and the Bidder agree that any disputes under these Conditions of Sale, the subject matter hereof, the entering into, or any aspect of the auction, shall be exclusively governed by Boston Massachusetts, Suffolk County law, and that any and all claims or actions shall be brought and maintained only in Boston Massachusetts, Suffolk County. THE PARTIES EXPRESSLY WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY. The Bidder hereby consents that any dispute shall be presented in confidential binding arbitration before a single selected Arbitrator selected by the American Arbitration Association. The Bidder and RR Auction herby agree that the dispute shall go to binding arbitration in accordance with the commercial rules of the American Arbitration Association. The American Arbitration Association arbitration shall be conducted under the provisions of the Federal Arbitration Act and the Bidder consents to jurisdiction in The Commonwealth of Massachusetts. Any dispute, claim, cause of action must be brought within one (1) year of the alleged breach, default or misrepresentation or the claim is waived. After one (1) year, the Bidder hereby releases and discharges RR Auction from any and all legal, equitable, administrative and/or other claims, counterclaims, demands, setoffs, defenses, accounts, suits, debts, dues, actions, causes of action, proceedings, arbitrations, damages, executions, judgments, findings, controversies and disputes, whether known or unknown or suspected or unsuspected, whether in law or equity, that the Bidder have or may have had against RR Auction arising from or relating to any claim whatsoever. Both Bidder and RR Auction agree that these provisions are intended to be binding on all parties in the event of any dispute specifically including third party claims and cross-actions brought by either RR Auction or Bidder, and that absent such agreement, RR Auction would not permit Bidder to bid hereunder. Any violation of the terms of this Paragraph shall entitle RR Auction to reasonable attorney fees and litigation costs in addition to all other available remedies, all of which remain reserved. The Bidder hereby agrees that RR Auction shall be entitled to present these Conditions of Sale to a court in any ju-

risdiction other than set forth in this paragraph as conclusive evidence of the parties’ agreement, and the parties further agree that the court shall immediately dismiss any action filed in such jurisdiction. An award granted in arbitration is enforceable in any court of competent jurisdiction. The arbitrator’s award may be enforced in any court of competent jurisdiction. This agreement and any claims shall be determined and construed under Boston Massachusetts, Suffolk County law.

RR Auction is in compliance, to the fullest extent possible, with Boston Massachusetts, Suffolk County procedures regarding the bonding of auctioneers.

Auctioneer and Auction: 1. This Auction is presented by RR Auction, a d/b/a/ of R&R Auction Company, LLC, as identified with the applicable licensing information on the title page of the catalog or on the www.RRauction.com Internet site (the “Auctioneer”). The Auction is conducted under these Terms and Conditions of Sale and applicable state and local law. Announcements and corrections from the podium at live auctions and those made through the Terms and Conditions of Sale appearing on the Internet at RRauction.com supersede those in the printed catalog.

Bidder/Bidders: 2. “Bidder” or “Bidders” shall mean the original Bidder of the property from RR Auction and not any subsequent owner or other person who may acquire or have acquired an interest therein. If Bidder is an agent, the agency must be disclosed in writing to RR Auction prior to the time of sale, otherwise the benefits of the warranty shall be limited to the agent and not transferable to the undisclosed principal.

3. The rights granted to Bidders under these Terms and Conditions of Sale are personal and may not be assigned or transferred to any other person or entity, whether by operation of law or otherwise. Any attempt to assign or transfer any such rights shall be absolutely void and unenforceable. No third party may rely on any benefit or right conferred on any Bidder by these Terms and Conditions of Sale.

4. Bids will not be accepted from minor persons under eighteen (18) years of age without a parent’s written consent containing an acknowledgment that the Terms and Conditions of Sale herein and indicating their agreement to be bound thereby on behalf of the Bidder.

5. Any person participating or registering for the Auction agrees to be bound by and accepts these Terms and Conditions of Sale.

6. All Bidders must meet Auctioneer’s qualifications to bid. Any Bidder who is not a client in good standing of RR Auction may be disqualified at RR Auction’s sole option and will not be awarded lots. Such determination may be made by RR Auction in its sole and unlimited discretion, at any time prior to, during, or even after the close of the Auction.

RR Auction reserves the right to exclude any person from the auction.

7. If an entity places a bid, then the person executing the bid on behalf of the entity agrees to personally guarantee payment for any successful bid.

8. By accepting the Terms and Conditions of Sale, Bidder personally and unconditionally guarantees payment. If the Bidder is a corporation, the officers, directors, and principals of the corporation hereby agree to personally and unconditionally guarantee payment as part of the corporation’s agreement to bid. The authorized representative of any corporate Bidder who is present at the sale shall provide RR Auction or its agent, prior to the commencement of the bidding (or at the time of registration), with a statement signed by each principal, director and officer that they each personally and unconditionally guarantee any payment due RR Auction Credit: 9. In order to place bids, Bidders who have not established credit with the Auctioneer must either furnish satisfactory credit information (including two collectibles-related business references) or supply valid credit card information, well in advance of the Auction. Bidders who are not members of RRAuction.com should pre-register before the close of the Auction to allow adequate time to contact references. Credit will be granted at the discretion of Auctioneer. Additionally Bidders who have not previously established credit or who wish to bid in excess of their established credit history may be required to provide their social

security number or the last four digits thereof so a credit check may be performed prior to Auctioneer’s acceptance of a bid. Check writing privileges and immediate delivery of merchandise may also be determined by pre-approval of credit based on a combination of criteria: RRAuction.com history, related industry references, bank verification, a credit bureau report and/or a personal guarantee for a corporate or partnership entity in advance of the auction venue.

Buyer’s Premium: 10. All bids are subject to a Buyer’s Premium which is in addition to the placed successful bid. The buyer’s premium will be added to the successful bid price and is payable by the Bidder as part of the total purchase price. The Bidder acknowledges and agrees that a 20% Buyer’s Premium will be added to the hammer price on all individual lots if payment is made by cash, check or wire payments. RR Auction may accept a current and valid VISA or MasterCard, credit or debit cards and/or PayPal for payment for winning bids under $5,000.00, but under the express condition that any property purchased by credit or debit card shall not be refundable, returnable, or exchangeable, and that no credit to Buyer’s credit or debit card account will be issued under any circumstances. In addition, there will be an additional 2.5% buyer’s Premium for Bidders who chose to pay via credit card or Paypal for invoices of $5,000 or less. The last sentence constitutes RR Auction’s “official policy” regarding returns, refunds, and exchanges where credit or debit cards are used. For payment other than by cash, delivery will not be made unless and until full payment has been actually received

by RR Auction, i.e., check has fully cleared or credit or debit card funds fully obtained. Unless otherwise agreed in a writing signed by RR Auction, payment in full is due within thirteen (13) calendar days of the auction or within twelve (12) calendar days of the invoice date, whichever is later.

Bidding: 11. By submitting a bid, whether online, in person, by mail, by phone, by facsimile or through an employee or agent, the Bidder acknowledges (i) receipt of the catalogue, (ii) that the Bidder has read the Terms and Conditions of Sale and the descriptions for the lots on which they have bid, and (iii) that they agree to adhere to these Terms and Conditions of Sale.

12. Each Bidder’s determination of its bid should be based upon its own examination of the item(s), rather than the strict reliance as to what is represented in this Catalogue, online or elsewhere. In any purchase or sale, the value of the item(s) is determined by the price.

THE BIDDER HEREBY ASSUMES ALL RISKS OF VALUATION CONCERNING ANY AND ALL PURCHASES. 13. RR AUCTION IS NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ERRORS IN BIDDING. A Bidder should make certain to bid on the correct lot and that the bid is the maximum (plus the 20% Buyer’s Premium) that the Bidder is willing and able to pay. Since other Bidders (by mail, facsimile and in person) will be present, and since a re-offering could damage the momentum of the sale, once the hammer has fallen and the Auctioneer has announced the winning Bidder, such Bidder is unconditionally bound to pay for the lot, even if the Bidder has made a mistake.

14. If the description of any lot in the catalogue is incorrect (e.g. gross cataloging error), the lot is returnable if returned within five (5) calendar days of receipt, and received by RR Auction no later than twenty-one (21) calendar days after the sale date. NO RETURN OR REFUND OF ANY AUCTION LOT WILL BE CONSIDERED EXCEPT BY REASON OF LACK OF AUTHENTICITY, UNLESS OTHERWISE PROVIDED IN THESE TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF SALE. 15. All prospective Bidders who examine lots in person prior to the sale shall personally assume all responsibility for any damage they cause in so doing. RR Auction shall have sole discretion in determining the value of the damage caused, which shall be promptly paid by the prospective Bidder.

16. Title to any lot remains with Consignor, any secured party of the Consignor, or assignee of Consignor, as the case may be, until the lot is paid for in full by Bidder. RR Auction reserves the right to require payment in full before delivering any lot to the successful Bidder.

17. It is the Bidder’s responsibility and obligation to have the lots fully insured while in their possession. Bidder assumes any and all RISK OF

LOSS once the lot(s) is in Bidder’s possession.

18. Bidder grants to RR Auction or its assigns the right to offset any sums due, or found to be due by RR Auction, and to make such offset from any past, subsequent or future consignment, or items acquired by Bidder in possession or control of RR Auction or from any sums due to Bidder by RR Auction. Bidder further grants RR Auction a purchase money security interest in such sums or items to the extent applicable, and agrees to execute such documents as may be reasonably necessary to grant RR Auction such security interest. Bidder agrees that RR Auction and its assigns shall be a secured party with respect to items bought by Bidder and in the possession of RR Auction, to the extent of the maximum indebtedness, plus all accrued expenses, until the indebtedness is paid.

19. By bidding in this sale, Bidder personally and unconditionally guarantees payment. If the Bidder is a corporation, the officers, directors, and principals of the corporation hereby agree to personally and unconditionally guarantee payment as part of the corporation’s agreement to bid. The authorized representative of any corporate Bidder who is present at the sale shall provide RR Auction or its agent, prior to the commencement of the bidding (or at the time of registration), with a statement signed by each principal, director and officer that they each personally and unconditionally guarantee any payment due RR Auction.

20. RR Auction may at its sole and absolute discretion, make loans or advances to Consignors and/or prospective Bidders.

21. If a dispute arises concerning ownership of a lot that has been bid upon during the course of the sale, RR Auction reserves the right to commence a statutory interpleader proceeding at the expense of the Consignor and successful Bidder and any other applicable party, and in such event shall be entitled to its reasonable attorney’s fees and costs.

22. In the event of a successful challenge to the title to any goods purchased, RR Auction agrees to reimburse any Bidder in an amount equal to the successful bid price actually paid by Bidder at auction plus any Buyer’s Commission actually paid, in full and complete satisfaction of all claims, which once tendered by RR Auction, relieves and releases RR Auction from any responsibility whatsoever to the Bidder, even if the instrument is not cashed or is returned.

Bidding Options: 23. Non-Internet bids (including but not limited to podium, fax, phone and mail bids) are treated similar to floor bids in that they must be onincrement. Any podium, fax, phone, or mail bids that do not conform to a full increment will be rounded up or down to the nearest full increment and this revised amount will be considered your high bid.

24. When identical mail or FAX bids are submitted, preference is given to the first received. To ensure the greatest accuracy, written bids should be entered on the standard printed bid sheet and be received at RR Auction’s place of business at least twenty-four (24) hours before the Auction start. Auctioneer is not responsible for executing mail bids or FAX bids received on or after the day the first lot is sold, nor Internet bids submitted after the published closing time; nor is Auctioneer responsible for proper execution of bids submitted by telephone, mail, FAX, e-mail, Internet, or in person once the Auction begins.

25. In internet only Auctions, bids on an item must raise the current high bid by at least 10%. Bids will be accepted in whole dollar amounts only. No “buy” or “unlimited” bids will be accepted. In a live sale, bids on an item can change at the discretion of the auctioneer.

26. RR Auction reserves the right to accept or decline any bid. Bids must be for an entire lot and each lot constitutes a separate sale. All bids are per lot unless otherwise announced. Live auction lots will be sold in their numbered sequence unless the Auctioneer directs otherwise. It is unlawful and illegal for Bidders to collude, pool, or agree with another Bidder to pay less than the fair value for lot(s). Bidders participating in both live and online auctions acknowledge that the law provides for substantial penalties in the form of treble damages and attorneys’ fees and costs for those who violate these provisions. For live auctions the auctioneer will have final discretion in the event that any dispute should arise between bidders. The auctioneer will determine the successful bidder, cancel the sale, or re-offer and resell the lot or

lots in dispute. RR Auction will have final discretion to resolve any disputes arising after the sale and in online auctions. If any dispute arises our sale record is conclusive.

Payment: 27a. Subject to fulfillment of all of the Terms and Conditions of Sale set forth herein, at the close of the Auction, title to the offered lot will pass to the highest bidder acknowledged by RR Auction, and such bidder thereupon (a) assumes full risk and responsibility (including without limitation, liability for or damage to frames or glass covering prints, paintings, photos, or other works), and (b) will immediately pay the full purchase price or such part as we may require. In addition to other remedies available to RR Auction by law, RR Auction reserves the right to impose from the date of sale a late charge of 1.5% per month of the total purchase price if payment is not made in accordance with the conditions set forth herein. All property must be removed from RR Auction’s premises by the Bidder at his/her expense not later than thirteen (13) business days following its sale and if it is not so removed, (i) a handling charge of 1% of the total purchase price per month from the 13th day after the sale until its removal will be payable to RR Auction by the Bidder, with a minimum of 5% of the total purchase price for any property not so removed within 60 days after the sale, and (ii) RR Auction may send the purchased property to a public warehouse for the account, at the risk and expense of the Bidder.

27b. All purchases are subject to the Massachusetts 6.25% sales tax unless the purchaser possesses a Massachusetts sales tax exemption number. Exemption numbers from other states are accepted in Massachusetts if presented with a business card or letterhead. Dealers, museums, and other qualifying parties can apply for a Massachusetts exemption number prior to the auction by contacting the Massachusetts Department of Corporations and Taxation at 100 Cambridge Street in Boston.

28. Payment is due upon closing of the Auction session, or upon presentment of an invoice. Auctioneer reserves the right to void an invoice if payment in full is not received within thirteen (13) calendar days of the auction or within twelve (12) calendar days of the invoice date. In cases of nonpayment, Auctioneer’s election to void a sale does not relieve the Bidder from their obligation to pay Auctioneer its fees (seller’s and buyer’s premium) on the lot and any other damages pertaining to the lot.

29. All sales are strictly for cash in United States dollars (including U.S. currency, bank wire, cashier checks, eChecks, and bank money orders, and are subject to all reporting requirements). All deliveries are subject to good funds; funds being received in RR Auction’s account before delivery of the Purchases; and all payments are subject to a clearing period. RR Auction reserves the right to determine if a check constitutes “good funds”: checks drawn on a U.S. bank are subject to a ten (10) business day hold, and ten (10) days when drawn on an international bank. Clients with pre-arranged credit status may receive immediate credit for payments via Check, personal or corporate checks.

All others will be subject to a hold of five (5) days, or more, for the funds to clear prior to releasing merchandise.

30. In the event that a Bidder’s payment is dishonored upon presentment(s), Bidder shall pay the maximum statutory processing fee set by applicable state law. If Bidder attempts to pay via Check and the financial institution denies the transfer from Bidder’s bank account, or the payment cannot be completed using the selected funding source, Bidder agrees to complete payment.

31. If any Auction invoice submitted by Auctioneer is not paid in full when due, the unpaid balance will bear interest at the highest rate permitted by law from the date of invoice until paid. Any invoice not paid when due will bear a one and one-half per cent (1.5%) late fee on the invoice amount. If the Auctioneer refers any invoice to an attorney for collection, the buyer agrees to pay attorney’s fees, court costs, and other collection costs incurred by Auctioneer. If Auctioneer assigns collection to its house counsel, such attorney’s time expended on the matter shall be compensated at a rate comparable to the hourly rate of independent attorneys.

32. If any applicable conditions herein are not complied with the Bidder will be in default and in addition to any and all other remedies

available to RR Auction and the Consignor by law, including, without limitation, the right to hold the Bidder liable for the total purchase price, including all fees, charges and expenses more fully set forth herein, RR Auction, may (a) cancel the sale of that, or any other lots sold to the defaulting Bidder at the same or any other auction, retaining as liquidated damages all payments made by the Bidder, or (b) resell the purchased property, whether at public auction or by private sale, or (c) effect any combination thereof. In any case, the Bidder will be liable for any deficiency, any and all costs, handling charges, late charges, expenses of both sales, RR Auction’s commissions on both sales at our regular rates, legal fees and expenses, collection fees and incidental damages. RR Auction may apply any proceeds of sale then due or thereafter becoming due to the Bidder from RR Auction or any affiliated company, or any payment made by the Bidder to RR Auction or any affiliated company, where or not intended to reduce the Bidder’s obligations with respect to the unpaid lot or lots, to the deficiency and any other amounts due to RR Auction or any affiliated companies. In addition, a defaulting Bidder will be deemed to have granted and assigned to RR Auction a continuing security interest of first priority in any property or money of RR Auction’s owing to such Bidder in RR Auction’s possession, and RR Auction may retain and apply such property or money as collateral security for the obligations due to RR Auction.

Payment will not be deemed to have been made in full until RR Auction has collected good funds. In the event the Bidder fails to pay any or all of the total purchase price for any lot and RR Auction elects to pay the Consignor any portion of the sale proceeds, the Bidder acknowledges that RR Auction shall have all of the rights of the Consignor to pursue the Bidder for any amounts paid to the Consignor, whether at law, in equity, or under these Terms and Conditions of Sale.

33. Auctioneer shall have a lien against the merchandise purchased by the buyer to secure payment of the Auction invoice. Auctioneer is further granted a lien and the right to retain possession of any other property of the buyer then held by the Auctioneer or its affiliates to secure payment of any Auction invoice or any other amounts due the Auctioneer or affiliates from the buyer. With respect to these lien rights, Auctioneer shall have all the rights of a secured creditor, including but not limited to the right of sale. In addition, with respect to payment of the Auction invoice(s), the buyer waives any and all rights of offset he might otherwise have against the Auctioneer and the consignor of the merchandise included on the invoice. If a Bidder owes Auctioneer or its affiliates on any account, Auctioneer and its affiliates shall have the right to offset such unpaid account by any credit balance due Bidder, and it may secure by possessory lien any unpaid amount by any of the Bidder’s property in their possession.

34. Title shall not pass to the successful Bidder until all invoices are paid in full. It is the responsibility of the buyer to provide adequate insurance coverage for the items once they have been delivered to a common carrier or third-party shipper.

35. Please send PayPal payments to FinanceDepartment@rrauction. com. All checks, cashiers checks or money orders are payable to R&R Auction Company, LLC. Orders paid by cashier check, money order, wire, Pay Pal or credit card are shipped upon receipt.

Delivery; Shipping; and Handling Charges: 36. Bidder is liable for shipping and handling. Auctioneer is unable to combine purchases from other auctions or affiliates into one package for shipping purposes. Lots won will be shipped in a commercially reasonable time after payment in good funds for the merchandise and the shipping fees is received or credit extended, except when third-party shipment occurs. Bidder agrees that Service and Handling charges related to shipping items which are not pre-paid may be charged to the credit card on file with Auctioneer.

37. Successful international Bidders shall provide written shipping instructions, including specified Customs declarations, to the Auctioneer for any lots to be delivered outside of the United States. NOTE: Declaration value shall be the item’(s) hammer price together with its buyer’s premium and Auctioneer shall use the correct harmonized code for the lot. Domestic Buyers on lots designated for third-party shipment must designate the common carrier, accept risk of loss, and prepay shipping costs.

Title: 38. On the fall of the auctioneer’s hammer, title to the offered lot will pass to the highest bidder acknowledged by RR Auction but fully subject to Buyer’s compliance with all of the terms of the Conditions of Sale and the Registration Form.

Rights Reserved: 39. RR Auction reserves the right to withdraw any lot before or at the time of the auction, and/or to postpone the auction of all or any lots or parts thereof, for any reason. RR Auction shall not be liable to any Bidder in the event of such withdrawal or postponement under any circumstances. RR Auction reserves the right to refuse to accept bids from anyone.

Conducting the Auction: 40. RR Auction reserves the right to postpone the auction sale or any session thereof for a reasonable period of time for any reason whatsoever, and no Bidder or prospective Bidder shall have any claim as a result thereof, including consequential damages.

41. RR Auction reserves the right to withdraw any lot at any time, even after the hammer has fallen, until the Bidder has taken physical possession of the lot. No Consignor who has registered to bid at the sale (or at any other time unless otherwise provided in the consignment agreement), or any Bidder or prospective Bidder shall have a right to claim any consequential damages if a lot is withdrawn, even after the sale.

42. The highest qualified Bidder recognized by the Auctioneer shall be the Buyer. In the event of a tie bid, the earliest bid received or recognized wins. In the event of any dispute between any Bidders at an Auction, Auctioneer may at his sole discretion reoffer the lot. Auctioneer’s decision and declaration of the winning Bidder shall be final and binding upon all Bidders. Bids properly offered, whether by floor Bidder or other means of bidding, may on occasion be missed or go unrecognized; in such cases, the Auctioneer may declare the recognized bid accepted as the winning bid, regardless of whether a competing bid may have been higher. Auctioneer reserves the right after the hammer falls to accept bids and reopen bidding for bids placed through the Internet or otherwise.

43. Lots bearing bidding estimates shall open at Auctioneer’s discretion. In the event that no bid meets or exceeds that opening amount, the lot shall pass as unsold.

44. All items are to be purchased per lot as numerically indicated and no lots will be broken unless decided by RR Auction. Auctioneer reserves the right to withdraw, prior to the close, any lots from the Auction.

45. Auctioneer reserves the right to rescind the sale in the event of nonpayment, breach of a warranty, disputed ownership, failure to execute the reserve, auctioneer’s clerical error or omission in exercising bids and reserves, or for any other reason and in Auctioneer’s sole discretion.

46. Auctioneer occasionally experiences Internet and/or Server service outages, and Auctioneer periodically schedules system downtime for maintenance and other purposes, during which Bidders cannot participate or place bids. If such outages occur, RR Auction may at our discretion extend bidding for the Auction. Bidders unable to place their Bids through the Internet are directed to contact Client Services at 1-603-732-4280.

47. The Auctioneer has the right to sell certain unsold items after the close of the Auction. Such lots shall be considered sold during the Auction and all these Terms and Conditions shall apply to such sales including but not limited to the Buyer’s Premium, return rights, and disclaimers.

Internet Auction – Extended bidding & the 30 Minute Rule: 48. Any bidder may bid on any lot prior to 6 pm. At that time, the Extended Bidding goes into effect. If you have not bid on a lot before 6 pm, you may not bid on that lot after 6 pm. Only those bidders who have placed bids on a lot before 6 pm will be allowed to bid on that lot after 6 pm. If you are the only bidder on a lot at 6 pm, that lot is awarded to you. During the extended bidding period, a lot will remain open only

to those who bid on that lot prior to 6 pm. All lots WITHOUT an opening bid at 6 pm will remain OPEN to ALL bidders until 7 pm or until they receive their first bid. These lots will close immediately upon receipt of a bid or at 7 pm, whichever comes first. For all lots that are active after 7 pm, bidding will remain open until 30 minutes pass without a bid being placed on THAT lot. The 30 Minute Rule is applied on a PER LOT BASIS; each lot in the auction closes individually based on bidding activity after 7 pm. On a PER LOT BASIS, the 30 minute timer will reset each time a bid is placed after 7 pm. If you are the high bidder, raising your maximum bid will NOT reset the timer. RR Auction reserves the right to close the auction at any time at its sole discretion.

Auctioneer’s Discretion: 49. RR Auction shall determine opening bids and bidding increments.

The auctioneer has the right in its absolute discretion to reject any bid in the event of dispute between bidders or if the auctioneer has doubt as to the validity of any bid, to advance the bidding at its absolute discretion and to determine the successful bidder in the event of a dispute between bidders, to continue the bidding or to reoffer and resell the lot in question. In the event of a dispute after the sale, RR Auction’s record of final sale shall be conclusive. The auctioneer also may reject any bid and withdraw the lot from sale if the auctioneer decides either that any opening bid is below the reserve of the lot or article or that an advance is insufficient. Unless otherwise announced by the auctioneer at the time of sale, no lots may be divided for the purpose of sale.

Reserves: 50. Lots may be subject to a reserve which is the confidential minimum price below which the lot will not be sold. Consignors may not bid on their own lots or property.

Off-Site Bidding: 51. Bidding by telephone, facsimile-transmission (fax-in), on-line, or absentee bidding (advance written bids submitted by mail) are offered solely as a convenience and permitted subject to advance arrangements, availability, and RR Auction’s approval which shall be exercised at RR Auction’s sole discretion. Neither RR Auction nor its agents or employees shall be held liable for the failure to execute bids or for errors relating to any transmission or execution thereof. In order to be considered for off-site bidding in any manner, Bidders must comply with all of these Conditions of Sale and the terms contained on the Registration Form.

RR Auction’ Remedies: 52. Failure of the Bidder/Buyer to comply with any of these Conditions of Sale or the terms of the Registration Form is an event of default. In such event, RR Auction may, in addition to any other available remedies specifically including the right to hold the defaulting Bidder/Buyer liable for the Purchase Price or to charge and collect from the defaulting Bidder/Buyer’s credit or debit accounts as provided for elsewhere herein: (a) cancel the sale, retaining any payment made by the Buyer as damages (the Bidder/Buyer understands and acknowledges that RR Auction will be substantially damaged should such default occur, and that damages under sub-part (a) are necessary to compensate RR Auction for such damages; (b) resell the property without reserve at public auction or privately; (c) charge the Bidder/Buyer interest on the Purchase Price at the rate of one and one-half per cent (1.5%) per month or the highest allowable interest rate; (d) take any other action that RR Auction, in its sole discretion, deems necessary or appropriate to preserve and protect RR Auction’ rights and remedies. Should RR Auction resell the property, the original defaulting buyer shall be liable for the payment of any deficiency in the purchase price and all costs and expenses associated there with, including but not limited to warehousing, sales-related expenses, reasonable attorney fees and court costs, commissions, incidental damages and any other charges due hereunder which were not collected or collectable. In the event that such buyer is the successful bidder on more than one lot and pays less than the purchase price for the total lots purchased, RR Auction shall apply the payment received to such lot or lots that RR Auction, in its sole discretion, deems appropriate. If RR Auction does not exercise such discretion, the lots to which the payment shall be applied will be in descending order from the highest purchase price to the lowest. Any buyer failing to comply with these Conditions of Sale shall be deemed to have granted RR Auction a security interest in, and RR Auction may

retain as collateral such security for such buyer’s obligations to RR Auction, any property in RR Auction’ possession owned by such buyer.

RR Auction shall have the benefit of all rights of a secured party under the Uniform Commercial Code (U.C.C.) as adopted by The Commonwealth of Massachusetts.

Warranties: 53. RR Auction does not provide any warranties to Bidders or Buyers, whether expressed or implied, beyond those expressly provided for in these Conditions of Sale. All property and lots are sold “as is” and “where is”. By way of illustration rather than limitation, neither RR Auction nor the consignor makes any representation or warranty, expressed or implied, as to merchant ability or fitness for intended use, condition of the property (including any condition report), correctness of description, origin, measurement, quality, rarity, importance, exhibition, relevance, attribution, source, provenance, date, authorship, condition, culture, genuineness, value, or period of the property. Additionally, neither RR Auction nor the consignor makes any representation or warranty, expressed or implied, as to whether the Buyer acquires rights in copyright or other intellectual property (including exhibition or reproduction rights) or whether the property is subject to any limitations or other rights. RR Auction does not make any representation or warranty as to title.

54. All descriptions, photographs, illustrations, and terminology including but not limited to words describing condition (including any condition reports requested by Bidder, see also Generally Terminology), authorship, period, culture, source, origin, measurement, quality, rarity, provenance, importance, exhibition, and relevance, used in the catalog, bill of sale, invoice, or anywhere else, represent a good faith effort made by RR Auction to fairly represent the lots and property offered for sale as to origin, date, condition, and other information contained therein; they are statements of opinion only. They are not representations or warranties and Bidder agrees and acknowledges that he or she shall not rely on them in determining whether or not to bid or for what price. Price estimates (which are determined well in advance of the auction and are therefore subject to revision) and condition reports are provided solely as a convenience to Bidders and are not intended nor shall they be relied on by Bidders as statements, representations or warranties of actual value or predictions of final bid prices.

55. Bidders are accorded the opportunity to inspect the lots and to otherwise satisfy themselves as to the nature and sufficiency of each lot prior to bidding, and RR Auction urges Bidders to avail themselves accordingly.

56. FIREARMS. Auctioneer complies with all Federal and State rules and regulations relating to the purchasing, registration and shipping of firearms. A Bidder is required to provide appropriate documents and the payment of associated fees, if any. Bidder is responsible for providing a shipping address that is suitable for the receipt of a firearm.

Important Notice: Many identical versions of props and costumes are created for film and television productions in the normal course of a production. RR Auction does not warrant or represent that the screen shots referenced are exact images of the offered item (unless specifically noted in the written description). Use of a screen shot does not constitute a warranty or representation of authenticity or provenance.

There is not a right of return or refund based upon a claim arising out of or pertaining to any reference to a screen shot.

57. Lots and property are not returnable to RR Auction for any reason except under Buyer’s limited Remedies set forth in Sections 58 and 59 below and under the express terms and conditions of Section 58.

Limitation of Damages: 58. In the event that RR Auction is prevented for any reason from delivering any property to Buyer or Buyer is otherwise dissatisfied with the performance of RR Auction, the liability, if any, of RR Auction, shall be limited to, and shall not exceed, the amount actually paid for the property by Buyer. In no event shall RR Auction be liable for incidental, special, indirect, exemplary or consequential damages of any kind, including but not limited to loss of profits, value of investment or opportunity cost.

Unauthorized Statements: 59. Under no circumstances is any employee, agent or representative of RR Auction authorized by RR Auction to modify, amend, waive or contradict any of these Terms and Conditions of Sale, any term or condition set forth on the Registration Form, any warranty or limitation or exclusion of warranty, any term or condition in either the Registration Form or these Terms and Conditions regarding payment requirements, including but not limited to due date, manner of payment, and what constitutes payment in full, or any other term or condition contained in any documents issued by RR Auction unless such modification, amendment, waiver or contradiction is contained in a writing signed by all parties. Any statements, oral or written, made by employees, agents or representatives of RR Auction to Bidder, including statements regarding specific lots, even if such employee, agent or representative represents that such statement is authorized, unless reduced to a writing signed by all parties, are statements of personal opinion only and are not binding on RR Auction, and under no circumstances shall be relied on by Bidder as a statement, representation or warranty of RR Auction.

Buyer’s Remedies: 60. Under no circumstance will RR Auction incur liability to a Bidder in excess of the purchase price actually paid. The terms and conditions of sale herein described shall be enforced in accordance with, and governed by the laws of The Commonwealth of Massachusetts.

61. This section sets forth the sole and exclusive remedies of Buyer in conformity with Sections 51-55 (“Warranties”) and 56 (“Limitation of Damages”) herein, and is expressly in lieu of any other rights or remedies which might be available to Buyer by law. The Buyer hereby accepts the benefit of the consignor’s warranty of title and any other representations and warranties made by the consignor for the Buyer’s benefit. In the event that Buyer proves in writing to RR Auction satisfaction that there was a breach of the consignor’s warranty of title concerning a lot purchased by Buyer, RR Auction shall make demand upon the consignor to pay to Buyer the Purchase Price (including any premiums, taxes, or other amounts paid or due to RR Auction). Should the consignor not pay the Purchase Price to Buyer within thirty days after such demand, RR Auction shall disclose the identity of the consignor to Buyer and assign to Buyer all of RR Auction’ rights against the consignor with respect to such lot or property. Upon such disclosure and assignment, all responsibility and liability, if any, of RR Auction with respect to said lot or property shall automatically terminate. RR Auction shall be entitled to retain the premiums and other amounts paid to RR Auction - this remedy is as to the consignor only. The rights and remedies provided herein are for the original Buyer only and they may not be assigned or relied upon by any transferee or assignee under any circumstances.

62. All Lots sold by RR Auction are accompanied by a Certificate of Authenticity. On any lot presented with a Certificate of Authenticity (“COA”) issued by RR Auction, that warranty insures only to the original Bidder (as shown in Auctioneer’s records) “Bidder”. Bidder may not transfer the rights afforded under the COA and it is null and void when Bidder transfers or attempts to transfer the lot. The COA warranty is valid from date of the auction in which Bidder was awarded the lot to five (5) years after its purchase. The COA warranty is valid as to its attribution to the person or entity described or to the lot’s usage. The Bidder as well as their heirs, successors and assigns is also given an unconditional lifetime guaranteed that allows the present owner of any lot purchased through RR Auction the right to consign with RR Auction. When the lot is accompanied by a Certificate of Authenticity (or its equivalent) from a third-party authentication provider, buyer has no right of return. On lots not accompanied by third-party authentication or under extremely limited circumstances not including authenticity (e.g. gross cataloging error), a Bidder who did not bid from the floor may request Auctioneer to evaluate voiding a sale; such request must be made in writing detailing the alleged gross error, and submission of the lot to Auctioneer must be pre-approved by Auctioneer. A Bidder must notify the appropriate department head in writing of the Bidder’s request within three (3) days of the non-floor bidder’s receipt of the lot.

Any lot that is to be evaluated for return must be received at the office of RR Auction within 35 days after Auction. AFTER THAT 35 DAY PERIOD, NO LOT MAY BE RETURNED FOR ANY REASONS. Lots returned must be in the same condition as when sold and must include

any Certificate of Authenticity. If a bidder wishes to challenge the Letter of Authenticity within the five (5) year warranty period, Bidder must present with the claim, authoritative written evidence that the lot is not authentic as determined by a known expert in the field. If Auctioneer concurs that the lot is not as represented, Bidder shall be refunded their purchase price. If the Auctioneer denies the claim, the Bidder may file the dispute with the American Arbitration Association with locale in Boston Massachusetts, Suffolk County, before a single selected Arbitrator selected by the American Arbitration Association. The American Arbitration Association arbitration shall be conducted under the provisions of the Federal Arbitration Act and the Bidder consents to jurisdiction in The Commonwealth of Massachusetts. The challenge to Authenticity must be brought within one (1) year if the Auctioneer denies the claim. After one (1) year, the Bidder hereby releases and discharges RR Auction from any and all legal, equitable, administrative and/or other claims, counterclaims, demands, setoffs, defenses, accounts, suits, debts, dues, actions, causes of action, proceedings, arbitrations, damages, executions, judgments, findings, controversies and disputes, whether known or unknown or suspected or unsuspected, whether in law or equity, that the Bidder have or may have had against RR Auction arising from or relating to any claim whatsoever. Specifically, the COA provided by RR Auction, 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 is subject to such issuing entity’s rules and such conditions are the sole remedy afforded to Bidder. For information as to third party authentication warranties the bidder is directed to contact RR Auction.

RR Auction’ Additional Services: 63. For Buyers who do not remove purchased property from RR Auction’ premises, RR Auction, in its sole discretion and solely as a service and accommodation to Buyers, may arrange to have purchased lots packed, insured and forwarded at the sole request, expense, and risk of Buyer. RR Auction assumes no and disclaims all responsibility and liability for acts or omissions in such packing or shipping by RR Auction or other packers and carriers, whether or not recommended by RR Auction. RR Auction assumes no and disclaims all responsibility and liability for damage to frames, glass or other breakable items. Where RR Auction arranges and bills for such services via invoice or credit card, RR Auction will include an administration charge.

Headings: 64. Headings are for convenience only and shall not be used to interpret the substantive sections to which they refer.

Entire Agreement: 65. These Conditions of Sale constitute the entire agreement between the parties together with the terms and conditions contained in the Registration Form. They may not be amended, modified or superseded except in a signed writing executed by all parties. No oral or written statement by anyone employed by RR Auction or acting as agent or representative of RR Auction may amend, modify, waive or supersede the terms herein unless such amendment, waiver or modification is contained in a writing signed by all parties.

66. If any section of these Terms and Conditions of Sale or any term or provision of any section is held to be invalid, void, or unenforceable by any court of competent jurisdiction, the remaining sections or terms and provisions of a section shall continue in full force and effect without being impaired or invalidated in any way.

67. These Terms and Conditions of Sale and the auction shall be construed and enforced in accordance with, and governed by, the laws of The Commonwealth of Massachusetts, whether or not the auction is and these Terms and Conditions of Sale are fully performed in Boston Massachusetts, Suffolk County.

AUCTION GENERAL GUIDELINES Conditions of Sale: Before you bid, you must read the Terms and Conditions of Sale, immediately preceding these pages. They represent a contract between RR Auction and you, and they contain important terms and conditions such as jurisdiction, payment terms, warranties and remedies. The

Conditions of Sale are controlling over these general guidelines in the event of any conflicts between their respective terms.

Estimate Prices: In addition to descriptive information, each item in the catalog sometimes includes a price range which reflects opinion as to the price expected at auction. In other instances, estimate prices can be obtained by calling RR Auction at (603) 732-4280. The Estimate Prices are based upon various factors including prices recently paid at auction for comparable property, condition, rarity, quality, history and provenance.

Estimates are prepared well in advance of the sale and subject to revision. Estimates do not include the buyer’s premium or sales tax (see under separate heading).

Reserves: The reserve is the minimum price the seller is willing to accept and below which a lot will not be sold.

Owned or Guaranteed Property: RR Auction generally offers property consigned by others for sale at public auction; in very limited occasion, lots are offered that are the property of RR Auction.

Buyer’s Premium and Sales Tax: The actual purchase price will be the sum of the final bid price plus the buyer’s premium of 20% of the hammer price plus applicable shipping, convenience and handling charges. In addition, there will be an additional 2.5% buyer’s Premium for Bidders who chose to pay via credit card or Paypal for invoices of $5,000 or less.

Before the Auction: You may attend pre-sale viewing for all of our auctions at no charge.

All property to be auctioned is usually on view for several days prior to the sale. You are encouraged to examine lots thoroughly. You may also request condition reports (see below). RR Auction’s staff are available at viewings and by appointment.

Contact Information: 5 Rt 101A, Suite 5 • Amherst, NH 03031 Local/International: 1-603-732-4280 Local/Int’l fax: 1-603-732-4288 Website: www.RRAuction.com Email bidding: Bid@RRAuction.com Hours of Operation: Office hours are Mon-Fri, 9 a.m. -5 p.m. eastern standard time; hours on the last night of the auction are dictated by the 30 Minute Rule (see below). Any item in the auction can be viewed in our offices during normal business hours. Please call to set up an appointment.

You must acknowledge having read your agreement with all of the Terms and Conditions of Sale prior to your registration and prior to your bidding on any lot.

Bidding Live Auction: Property is auctioned in consecutive numerical order, as it appears in the catalog. The auctioneer will accept bids from those present in the salesroom or absentee bidders participating by telephone, internet or by written bid left with RR Auction in advance of the auction.

The auctioneer may also execute a bid on behalf of the consignor to protect the reserve, either by entering a bid in response to salesroom, telephone or absentee bids. Under no circumstances will the auctioneer place any bid on behalf of the consignor at or above the reserve.

The auctioneer will not specifically identify bids placed on behalf of the consignor to protect the reserve.

Maximum Bids – Internet Auction Only: To maximize your chance of winning, we strongly encourage the use of maximum bids. For example, assume an item you want currently has a high bid of $100. Your bid would then be $110 (10% over $100), and you could tell us, “I’d like a maximum bid of $242 for that item.” We will enter your bid at $110, and we will then bid for you until the lot reaches your maximum of $242. If competitive bids only reach $148, you would win the item at $163—10% over the highest previous bid. To prevent tie bids, all maximum bids should be made in proper increments. Maxi-

mum bids are strictly confidential. Placing arbitrary, non-incremental bids on lots with prior maximum bids may result in these lots being sold for less than 10% above the under bidder’s bid.

Bid Increments: Bids on an item must raise the current high bid by at least 10% or at the discretion of the auctioneer.

Checking Bids – Internet Auction Only: You can open, monitor, and/or raise bids as often as you wish. However, all bidding is governed by the 30 Minute Rule and extended bidding. Extended bidding always goes into effect at 6 pm on the last day of the auction. At 7 pm, the extended bidding ends and the 30 Minute Rule goes into effect.

Callbacks – Internet Auction Only: RRAuction offers a callback service on auction night for any bidder who has the high bid on an item whose current bid is over $1,000 and who has placed a maximum bid. At your request, we will call you if your maximum bid is topped. We will need your correct telephone number(s) where you can be reached until the auction closes. Callbacks begin after 6 pm on auction night. You must request this service; it is not automatic. We make every effort to ensure that bidders who request a callback are contacted if outbid; however, we do not guarantee this service.

Bidding - Internet Auction: To ensure proper registration, those Bidders intending to bid via the Internet must visit www.RRauction.com and register accordingly at least one full day prior to the actual auction. If you have questions about this feature, please call RR Auction well in advance of the auction. Winning bidders will be notified by RR Auction. RR Auction is not and cannot be responsible or liable for any problems, delays, or any other issues or problems resulting out of use of the Internet generally or specifically, including but not limited to transmission, execution or processing of bids.

Bidding - Internet – Live Auction: During live Auctions, internet bids can be placed in real time through the following services: www.RRAuction.com, www.liveauctioneers. com, www.artfact.com and www.icollector.com. On some occasions beyond the control of RR Auction, the bid software or the Internet itself may not physically keep up with the pace of the auction. In order to help avoid disappointment, RR Auction recommends placing a realistic absentee bid now. Since Artfact and iCollector (hereinfafter referred to as “Third Party sites”) bids are not shown to RR Auction until RR Auction opens the lot on the floor, RR Auction treats those bids the same as floor or telephone bids. In most cases, however, the floor and/or telephone responds before the Third Party sites bid is presented, due to Live Internet bid software or Internet lag time, so for consistency it is RR Auction’ policy that floor bids and telephone bids are always considered first over Third Party sites bids with floor bids being considered before telephone bids. Also please note that all RR Auction lots purchased through the Third Party sites carry an additional Buyer’s Premium. RR Auction strongly urges the bidder to resolve any questions about these policies or their implementation PRIOR TO BIDDING. Successful Bids: The fall of the auctioneer’s hammer indicates the final bid. RR Auction will record the paddle number of the buyer. If your salesroom or absentee bid is successful, you will be notified after the sale by mailed or emailed invoice.

Unsold Lots: If a lot does not reach the reserve, it is bought-in. In other words, it remains unsold and is returned to the consignor. The Auctioneer has the right to sell certain unsold items after the close of the Auction. Such lots shall be considered sold during the Auction and all these Terms and Conditions shall apply to such sales including but not limited to the Buyer’s Premium, return rights, and disclaimers.

After the Auction - Payment: You are expected to pay for your purchases in full within thirteen (13) calendar days of the auction or within twelve (12) calendar days of the invoice date. (See Generally “Payment” §27 through 35 of the Term and Conditions of Sale).

Shipping: After payment has been made in full, RR Auction may, as a service to buyers, arrange to have property packed, insured and shipped at your request and expense. For shipping information, please contact RR Auction at (603) 732-4280. In circumstances in which RR Auction arranges and bills for such services via invoice or credit card, we will also include an administration charge. Packages shipped internationally will have full value declared on shipping form. (See Generally “Delivery; Shipping; and Handling Charges” §36 and 37 of the Term and Conditions of Sale).

At our discretion, some orders of high value may be sent via overnight or two-day service. Insurance is added to each invoice, with a minimum of $2 for the first $200 of value and 55¢ per $100 of value over $200.

Oversized orders will have additional postage added to their invoices.

Within the United States, rates for shipping and handling only are: $0–$100..........................................$10 $101–$500.......................................$15 $501–$1,000....................................$20 $1,001–$3,000.................................$35 $3,001–$10,000...............................$45 Over $10,000.................................$100 Additional Cataloging, Warranties and Disclaimers: NO WARRANTY, WHETHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, IS MADE WITH RESPECT TO ANY DESCRIPTION CONTAINED IN THIS AUCTION OR ANY SECOND OPINE. Any description of the items or second opinion contained in this Auction is for the sole purpose of identifying the items for those Bidders who do not have the opportunity to view the lots prior to bidding, and no description of items has been made part of the basis of the bargain or has created any express warranty that the goods would conform to any description made by Auctioneer.

Color variations can be expected in any electronic or printed imaging, and are not grounds for the return of any lot.

Auctioneer is selling only such right or title to the items being sold as Auctioneer may have by virtue of consignment agreements on the date of auction and disclaims any warranty of title to the Property. Auctioneer disclaims any warranty of merchantability or fitness for any particular purposes. All images, descriptions, sales data, and archival records are the exclusive property of Auctioneer, and may be used by Auctioneer for advertising, promotion, archival records, and any other uses deemed appropriate.

Release: In consideration of participation in the Auction and the placing of a bid, Bidder expressly releases Auctioneer, its officers, directors and employees, its affiliates, and its outside experts that provide second opinion, from any and all claims, cause of action, chose of action, whether at law or equity or any arbitration or mediation rights existing under the rules of any professional society or affiliation based upon the assigned description, or a derivative theory, breach of warranty express or implied, representation or other matter set forth within these Terms and Conditions of Auction or otherwise. In the event of a claim, Bidder agrees that such rights and privileges conferred therein are strictly construed as specifically declared herein; e.g., authenticity, gross cataloging error, etc. and is the exclusive remedy. Bidder, by non-compliance to these express terms of a granted remedy, shall waive any claim against Auctioneer.

Some Property sold by Auctioneer are inherently dangerous e.g. firearms, and items that may be swallowed or ingested or may have latent defects all of which may cause harm to a person. Bidder accepts all risk of loss or damage from its purchase of these items and Auctioneer disclaims any liability whether under contract or tort for damages and losses, direct or inconsequential, and expressly disclaims any warranty as to safety or usage of any lot sold.

Dispute Resolution and Arbitration Provision: Bidder and RR Auction agree that any agreements between the Bidder and RR Auction including but not limited to these Conditions of Sale are entered into in Boston Massachusetts, Suffolk County, which is where the agreements are to be performed and the auction to take place, no matter where Bidder is situated and no matter by what means

or where Bidder was informed of the auction and regardless of whether catalogs, materials, or other communications were received by Bidder in another location. Both RR Auction and the Bidder agree that any disputes under these Conditions of Sale, the subject matter hereof, the entering into, or any aspect of the auction, shall be exclusively governed by Boston Massachusetts, Suffolk County law, and that any and all claims or actions shall be brought and maintained only in Boston Massachusetts, Suffolk County. THE PARTIES EXPRESSLY WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY. The Bidder hereby consents that any dispute shall be presented in confidential binding arbitration before a single selected Arbitrator selected by the American Arbitration Association. The Bidder and RR Auction herby agree that the dispute shall go to binding arbitration in accordance with the commercial rules of the American Arbitration Association. The American Arbitration Association arbitration shall be conducted under the provisions of the Federal Arbitration Act and the Bidder consents to jurisdiction in The Commonwealth of Massachusetts. Any dispute, claim, cause of action must be brought within one (1) year of the alleged breach, default or misrepresentation or the claim is waived. After one (1) year, the Bidder hereby releases and discharges RR Auction from any and all legal, equitable, administrative and/or other claims, counterclaims, demands, setoffs, defenses, accounts, suits, debts, dues, actions, causes of action, proceedings, arbitrations, damages, executions, judgments, findings, controversies and disputes, whether known or unknown or suspected or unsuspected, whether in law or equity, that the Bidder have or may have had against RR Auction arising from or relating to any claim whatsoever.

This agreement and any claims shall be determined and construed under Boston Massachusetts, Suffolk County law.

Miscellaneous: Agreements between Bidders and consignors to effectuate a non-sale of an item at Auction, inhibit bidding on a consigned item to enter into a private sale agreement for said item, or to utilize the Auctioneer’s Auction to obtain sales for non-selling consigned items subsequent to the Auction, are strictly prohibited. If a subsequent sale of a previously consigned item occurs in violation of this provision, Auctioneer reserves the right to charge Bidder the applicable Buyer’s Premium and consignor a Seller’s Commission as determined for each auction venue and by the terms of the seller’s agreement.

Acceptance of these Terms and Conditions qualifies Bidder as a client who has consented to be contacted by RR Auction in the future. In conformity with “do-not-call” regulations promulgated by the Federal or State regulatory agencies, participation by the Bidder is affirmative consent to being contacted at the phone number shown in his application and this consent shall remain in effect until it is revoked in writing.

RR Auction may from time to time contact Bidder concerning sale, purchase, and auction opportunities available.

Rules of Construction: Auctioneer presents properties in a number of collectible fields, and as such, specific venues have promulgated supplemental Terms and Conditions. Nothing herein shall be construed to waive the general Terms and Conditions of Auction by these additional rules and shall be construed to give force and effect to the rules in their entirety.

TERMINOLOGY

Condition: Each item in the catalog is described with a statement of opinion indicating its overall condition. The condition of the items we offer generally falls into the following range: good—very good—fine—very fine.

Treated as a scale of 1 to 4, good describes an item that has as many as several flaws, which are described in detail; very fine describes an item whose condition and appearance may be regarded as flawless and superior in every respect. Most of the items we offer are in fine condition, meaning that there are no serious flaws. While we make every effort to describe flaws that materially affect appearance and value, we generally do not specify minor or routine flaws, such as (but not limited to) pencil or secretarial notations, mailing folds to letters, normal aging to paper, or tiny bends or creases from normal handling. We encourage prospective bidders to examine the image(s) of each item closely and to contact us with specific inquiries regarding condition.

Group Lots: In descriptions of group lots of two or more items, every effort is made to mention any obvious flaws. Bidders should note that condition for group lots is given as a general statement or range, and that specific flaws to single items within the group may be omitted in the interest of catalog space. Questions about group lots, or specific items within a group lot, should be addressed before the close of the auction to Stacey Jordan (Stacey.Jordan@RRAuction.com).

Matted and Framed: Many of the items offered for sale in our monthly auctions are described as matted and/or framed. We do not remove items from frames; the given dimensions of items housed in a frame and/or mat indicate sight size only. Photographs and other ephemera used with matted and framed items are not subject to description and condition statements, nor are they considered a reason for return. Condition refers only to the item and not the mat or frame. Our terms of return apply only to the item and not the matting and framing. Any item that is removed from the frame cannot be returned. Returns are only accepted when there is an authenticity question or the description of the item is incorrect.
