BEATLES

A

Hard

Day’s Night fully signed by the Beatles—one of fewer than a dozen known to exist

7001. Beatles Signed Album - A Hard Day’s Night - “One of Fewer Than a Dozen Known to Exist”. A Hard Day’s Night album (Parlophone, Mono, PMC 1230) boldly signed on the back cover in blue ballpoint by John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison, and Ringo Starr. In fine condition, with some minor soiling to the signed side. The record is not included.

Accompanied by a letter of authenticity from noted Beatles expert Frank Caiazzo, in part: “These signatures are found on the back cover of an early pressing mono copy of the band’s third album release on the Parlophone Records label, entitled ‘A Hard Day’s Night’ (PMC 1230), which was released in Great Britain on July 10, 1964. All four have autographed the back cover beautifully in blue ballpoint pen in various places on the

back cover, which was the first to feature separate headshots of all four band members. The signatures date from very shortly after the release of the album, and each is an excellent example from the period. ‘A Hard Day’s Night’ is a scarce and desirable title to have autographed by The Beatles, with fewer than a dozen known to exist.”

The Beatles’ third studio album and the first to feature only songs written by John Lennon and Paul McCartney, A Hard Day’s Night serves as the soundtrack to their film of the same name and captures the band at the height of Beatlemania with energetic, jangly guitar-driven tracks. Highlights like ‘A Hard Day’s Night,’ ‘Can’t Buy Me Love,’ and ‘And I Love Her’ showcase their growing sophistication as songwriters. Starting Bid $5000

Coveted complete set of signed Beatles checks, drawn on the accounts of their music publishing companies

7002. Beatles (3) Signed Checks with Lennon, McCartney, Harrison, and Starr - A Sought-After Complete Set, Drawn on their Music Publishing Companies. Amazing set of three business checks signed by the members of the Beatles, all encapsulated by PSA/ DNA. Includes:

Maclen Music was the company through which Lennon and McCartney received songwriting royalties for the songs they wrote together during the Beatles’ days. Both were well into their solo careers by this point, with both releasing albums in 1975—McCartney’s Wings came out with their fourth album, Venus and Mars, and Lennon released his sixth, Rock ‘n’ Roll. Post-Beatles material signed by both Lennon and McCartney is extremely scarce.

- Harrisongs Ltd. business check, 7.75 x 3.5, filled out in another hand and signed by George Harrison, payable to Woking Motors Ltd. for £19.24, May 6, 1971. Encapsulated in a PSA/DNA authentication holder. Harrisongs was Harrison’s own music publishing company, founded in 1964.

- Apple Publishing Ltd. business check, 7.75 x 3.5, filled out in another hand and signed by Ringo Starr, “R. Starkey,” payable to Graham Lyle for £9.99, March 5, 1974. Encapsulated and graded by PSA/DNA as “GEM MT 10.” Apple Publishing was founded in 1967 by the four Beatles to serve as a music publisher under their larger Apple Corps umbrella.

Historic band-signed first pressings of the Beatles’ second single, the chart-topping ‘Please Please Me,’ obtained at the Cavern Club in early 1963

7003. Beatles (2) Signed Parlophone ‘Please Please Me’ 7-Inch Single Records. Desirable pair of UK Parlophone red label 7-inch vinyl first pressings of the Beatles’ second single, ‘Please Please Me / Ask Me Why’ (45-R 4983), both signed on their respective A-side label in black ink by two members of the Beatles: “John Lennon” and “George Harrison”; and “Paul McCartney, xxx” and “Ringo Starr, xxx.” The consignor notes that the signatures date to early 1963 and were all obtained at the Cavern Club. Includes the original Parlophone record sleeves. In overall fine condition. Accompanied by a certificate of authenticity from Tracks.

Following the success of the single, ‘Please Please Me,’ which topped the NME singles chart upon its release on January 11, 1963, George Martin and the Beatles got to work on the band’s debut full-length album, which was strategically named after their recent hit song. The band recorded Please Please Me in one day at EMI Studios on February 11, 1963, and the album was released a month later on March 22, 1963. Although the record wasn’t released in the United States, Please Please Me earned positive reviews in Great Britain, where it remained in the Top 10 for over a year, a record for a debut album that stood for half a century. Starting Bid $1000

In very good to fine condition, with a stain at the top, unobtrusive intersecting folds, and light show-through from unrelated signatures on the back.

Accompanied by a certificate of authenticity from Tracks and by a letter of provenance from the original owner: “My family and I grew up in Irby Village and I attended the Mary Newton Dance School. My mum had agreed to help Mary Newton set up the hall for The Beatles playing there; at the time we had no idea who they were. I went along after school, as my mum was there helping. I was only 13 or 14 at the time. I sat on the side of the stage and watched the Beatles play. I forget which songs they played but I do recall the Beatles complaining that there were only soft drinks and no alcohol. We got to speak with all of the Beatles and the DJ for the event, Derek Jeffries. John Lennon had just picked up a new kitten that day and he brought it on a holdall. He even let me have a hold of it. The autographs were all signed with me present.” Starting Bid $1000

in Stockholm, Sweden performing a segment which was filmed for a popular television show there called ‘Drop In.’” Months before Beatlemania swept across the United States with the band’s legendary performance on the Ed Sullivan Show, the Fab Four traveled to Sweden for a five-concert tour that showcased an edgier side of the Beatles, injecting standard rhythm and blues with a frenetic punk pace and attitude. Their television appearance on Drop In and subsequent seven-song set at Stockholm’s Karlaplansstudion secured their status among Swedish audiences. Starting Bid $1000

Sought-after signatures from the birth of

‘Beatlemania’—a historic TV showcase on Sunday Night at the London Palladium

7007. Beatles Signatures (October 13, 1963) - Dating to Their ‘Beatlemania’ TV Concert on Sunday Night at the London Palladium. Magnificent set of vintage ballpoint signatures of the Beatles — “John Lennon,” “George Harrison,” “Paul McCartney,” and “Ringo Starr”— on an off-white 9 x 7 sheet, which were obtained on October 13, 1963, when the band famously performed on Val Parnell’s popular variety show Sunday Night at the London Palladium. The Beatles performed ‘From Me to You,’ ‘I’ll Get You,’ ‘She Loves You,’ and ‘Twist and Shout’ in front of a TV audience of 15 million viewers. To the delight of press photographers, dozens of fans blocked the street outside, a situation that made for front-page-ready pictures and stories for the next morning’s paper. The Daily Mirror described the mass hysteria in a single word that would soon be adopted into the worldwide cultural lexicon—Beatlemania. In very good to fine condition, with light creasing, intersecting folds, and a small tape stain on the back, showing through behind Lennon’s signature. Starting Bid $500

Exceedingly rare original poster for the Beatles at Leyton Super Baths in April 1963, amidst their meteoric rise to fame

7009. Beatles Exceedingly Rare 1963 Leyton Super Baths Concert Poster. Exceedingly rare original first printing color 15 x 20 concert poster for the Beatles at Leyton Super Baths on April 8, 1963, with the band’s name printed in remarkable bright red day-glo ink within a black box. The poster reads: “Leyton Super Baths, Leyton, E.10, Monday, 8th April, The Fabulous Beatles, Bus Routes: 35, 38, 38A, 69, 249, 257, 234, 70, 170, 26, Nearest Underground Leyton (Central).” In fine condition, with light creasing and flattened intersecting folds.

This incredibly rare poster comes from the personal collection of Norman Jago, who assisted in creating and distributing it in 1963 to advertise the Beatles’ first and only show at Leyton Super Baths; this is his only remaining example, in an exceptionally well-preserved state. We find no record of another ever being offered at auction.

By the spring of 1963, the Beatles were skyrocketing to fame across the United Kingdom. Their debut album, Please Please Me, had just hit the airwaves—soaring up the charts and transforming them from local favorites into national sensations. Though a major tour with Roy Orbison was already being planned, manager Brian Epstein held firm that the band honor their dance hall bookings. One such date, at Leyton Super Baths on April 8, 1963, drew a packed and electric crowd eager to witness Britain’s hottest new act in person. The raw excitement that night crackled with the first sparks of Beatlemania—an unstoppable cultural wave that was just beginning to roll. Starting Bid $1000

“The One and Only BEATLES”— rare, original poster promoting a Beatles concert at the

Town Hall Ballroom in Abergavenny, Wales, on June 22, 1963

7010. Beatles Original 1963

Abergavenny Town Hall Concert Poster (20˝ x 30˝). Rare original 20 x 30 promotional poster for the Town Hall Ballroom in Abergavenny, Wales, which highlights an upcoming concert by “The One and Only BEATLES” on June 22, 1963. Rolled and in very good to fine condition, with tack holes to the corners, and a couple of old clear tape repairs to the back of the somewhat fragile intersecting folds. Accompanied by a certificate of authenticity from Tracks.

Shortly after their UK tour with Roy Orbison, the Beatles performed at the Town Hall in Abergavenny, Wales, on June 22, 1963, taking the stage later than usual due to John Lennon’s appearance on the BBC’s Juke Box Jury. Filming for the show ended at 9:15 pm, after which Lennon was flown by helicopter from Battersea to Abergavenny, landing at Penypound football ground at 9:50 pm and driven straight to the venue, while the rest of the band had arrived earlier and attended a civic reception hosted by the town’s mayor.

Booked by promoter Eddie Tattersall for £250, the concert began at 10:30 pm before an audience of just 600 fans. After the show, the band signed autographs sold for three pence each in aid of the Freedom From Hunger Campaign. Starting Bid $1000

Rare early Beatles demo pressing of Love

Me Do’—the first official pressing featuring John, Paul, George, and Ringo on the same single

7011. Beatles 45 RPM ‘Demonstration Record’ Single for ‘Love Me Do / P.S. I Love You,’ with ‘McArtney’ Misspelling. Extremely rare Parlophone ‘A-label’ 45 RPM demonstration single of ‘Love Me Do’ / ‘P.S. I Love You’ by the Beatles, with “McArtney” misspelling and catalogue number “45–R 4949.” This unique demo was the first official pressing featuring John, Paul, George, and Ringo on the same single (pressed in September 1962), and only 250 copies of the disc were produced and sent to radio stations for promotion. Record label matrix numbers on side A (7XCE 17144 1N) and B (7XCE 17145 1N), with stamped tax codes of “ZT” and “JR.” Includes the original ‘Top Pop’ sleeve. In very good to fine condition, with creasing and a small tear to the sleeve. Accompanied by a certificate of authenticity from Tracks.

Perhaps most interesting about this single is the rarity of the music itself—only the first UK pressings used the ‘Love Me Do’ track recorded in the studio with Ringo Starr as the drummer. Dissatisfied with Ringo’s work, producer George Martin hired Andy White as a session drummer and had them record a second version. All future British pressings of the single, the American release, and their Please Please Me debut album used the track featuring White on the drums; the version of the song on this 45 has only been sporadically re-released on compilation albums of rare or unusual Beatles recordings. In fine condition, with light creasing to the sleeve. Starting Bid $1000

A sought-after publication dating to this pivotal early phase of Beatlemania, signed by three Beatles just prior to their international breakthrough. Starting Bid $1000

Ink signatures of Lennon, Harrison, and McCartney, dated to the start of their 10-day conference on Transcendental Meditation in Wales, and two days before the tragic death of manager Brian Epstein

7013. Beatles: John Lennon, Paul McCartney, and George Harrison Signed Postcard - Two Days Before the Death of Brian Epstein. Vintage ballpoint signatures, “Paul McCartney,” “John Lennon,” and “George Harrison,” on the reverse of a color 3.5 x 5.5 Bamforth & Co. postcard. Includes a color glossy 3.5 x 5 snapshot photo of Lennon posing with the recipient, Rod Griffin, and two others moments after he signed the postcard, which occurred on August 25, 1967, when the Beatles travelled from London to Bangor, Wales—along with Cynthia Lennon, Pattie Harrison, her sister Jenny, Alexis Mardas, Mick Jagger, and Marianne Faithfull—to attend the Maharishi Mahesh Yogi’s 10-day conference on Transcendental Meditation. The event was also attended by Griffin, who met the three Beatles upon their arrival. In very good to fine condition, with two punch holes, overall creasing, and a scuff to the letter of Lennon’s signature. Accompanied by certificates of authenticity from Tracks and Fab Four Memorabilia Ltd., and by three printed photos of the Beatles arriving at the conference, each of which features an arrow pointing out Griffin.

On August 25, 1967, the Beatles traveled from London to Bangor, Wales, to attend Maharishi Mahesh Yogi’s 10-day Transcendental Meditation course. Worn down by years of

relentless work and searching for direction after ending live performances in 1966, the band turned to Transcendental Meditation in hopes of finding renewed purpose, balance, and spiritual focus.

The retreat abruptly ended on August 27, when the Beatles received the shocking news that their manager, Brian Epstein, had died in London at the age of 32. Shaken by the sudden loss of the man who had guided their career from obscurity to global fame, the band immediately returned home. Lennon spoke candidly to the press on the band’s grief and Epstein’s importance, but in later interviews, he shared a more practical assessment on the loss of their manager: ‘I knew that we were in trouble then. I didn’t really have any misconceptions about our ability to do anything other than play music, and I was scared. I thought, ‘We’ve fucking had it.’’

In so many words, Lennon made it clear that Epstein served as the brains and organizing force behind the band’s success. Without him, they would struggle with the administrative and business aspects of their career, a sentiment that many fans and historians agree ultimately contributed to the band’s breakup. Starting Bid $300

Signed twice in black felt tip by Lennon, as both artist and Apple Director, and also signed by EMI managing director Ken East. Two additional pages are stapled to the front of the document, one being the original document sent to Lennon for his signature, as well as a cover letter, dated November 10, 1969, addressed to Peter Howard simply stating, “Herewith formal letter dealing with the ‘Wedding Album.’” In fine condition.

Created as Lennon’s artistic focus moved beyond the Beatles during their final year, the album forms part of a trio of avantgarde collaborations with Ono—Unfinished Music No. 1: Two Virgins and Unfinished Music No. 2: Life with the Lions—that document this transitional moment in his career. A unique artifact from a pivotal period in Beatles history, signed not once but twice by Lennon. Starting Bid $1000

I also kept his boarding card as he always travelled under the name Mr. Norman.”

During a Barbados holiday in January 1984, local police raided the McCartneys’ rented home after receiving a tip, and Paul and Linda McCartney were arrested for possession of small amounts of cannabis. The repercussions were relatively minor but highly publicized: both pleaded guilty in court and were fined $100 each, avoiding jail time. Speaking upon his return to Heathrow, McCartney reflected without rancor: ‘I’ve got absolutely no grudges…It was a small amount of cannabis and I intended to use it, but the police came to my place and I gave them 10 grams of cannabis. Linda had another small carton of cannabis in her handbag.’ Starting Bid $200

The black-and-white portraits, which individually depict band members John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison, and Ringo Starr, were later arranged into a horizontal collage, known colloquially as the ‘Mount Rushmore’ portrait, and published as a poster in the January 9, 1968, edition of Look Magazine in the U.S. That same issue also featured Avedon’s more iconic psychedelic portraits of the Beatles.

This was also the event where John Lennon took a jab at the Crown with his famous bit of stage banter: ‘For our last number I’d like to ask your help. The people in the cheaper seats clap your hands.

Original tapes of Bob Dylan’s unpublished 1965 Playboy interview—a candid, electric-era conversation on folk-rock, protest songs, fame, and artistic influence BOB DYLAN

7088. Bob Dylan Original Reel-to-Reel Audio Tapes of an Unpublished 1965 Playboy Interview with Nat Hentoff. Set of four original reel-to-reel audio tapes (¼˝) of historian, music critic, and free speech activist Nat Hentoff’s unpublished interview with Bob Dylan, conducted for Playboy in New York City in October–November 1965, totaling about two hours of content. Dylan exercised veto power over the interview and ultimately refused to allow it to be published; the version that ultimately appeared in the March 1966 issue of Playboy is an entirely different interview, famed for its humor and stream of consciousness style, fabricated for publication by Dylan and Hentoff. The reels are housed in their original black boxes, one with a Columbia Records “Inter-Office Shipping Label” affixed on the front; the boxes are worn, with splits to the edges, but the tapes themselves remain in fine condition. Accompanied by a USB drive carrying a digital transfer of the tapes’ audio. Consigned by Nat Hentoff’s son, these tapes were returned to Hentoff by the CBS Records publicity department and have remained in the family since.

The wide-ranging conversation preserved here captures Dylan at a pivotal moment just after the release of Highway 61 Revisited, as he rejects easy labels, reflects on rock and roll, folk music, fame, protest songs, politics, education, drugs, money, and the burdens of being treated as a generational spokesman—a label he refuses to embrace.

Much of the interview centers on Dylan’s refusal to be confined by the folk revival or by expectations that he continue writing “protest songs.” Asked about criticism that he had stopped singing protest material, Dylan responds coolly that he has “absolutely no contact with that,” and rejects the very idea of the “message song,” calling it “vulgar” and saying: “I’m not trying to say anything any more…The songs are just somebody else is hearing them, that’s all it is…They exist, and whoever listens to them, that’s none of my business.” He is equally resistant to being called a folk singer, explaining that he has “a very deep respect” for folk music but no interest in the commercial folk scene: “I’m not a folk singer really at all, you know…I don’t call myself anything, I really don’t. I’m sort of a slot machine. Slot machine wonder!” Starting Bid $1000

Bob Dylan’s landmark album of love and loss, Blood on

the Tracks, signed and presented to his longtime business manager

7090. Bob Dylan Signed Album - Blood on the Tracks. Beautiful example of Bob Dylan’s 15th studio album, Blood on the Tracks, signed on the front cover in silver ink by Dylan. In fine to very fine condition. The record is included. Accompanied by a letter of provenance from Jeff Rosen, president of the Bob Dylan Music Company, in full: “I represent Bob Dylan and have done so for many years. In 2017 he signed a number of individual albums on a rare and limited basis, including the album photographed here. I can say for certain that it is Bob Dylan’s signature. The chain of custody is directly from Bob Dylan to myself.” The album itself is from the personal stock of Jeff Rosen and Bob Dylan.

Many critics consider Blood on the Tracks to be Dylan’s finest work. With songs like ‘Tangled Up In Blue’ and ‘Shelter From The Storm,’ it is a gut-wrenching account of the dissolution of his marriage. Dylan has denied that the songs on the album are autobiographical, but it’s impossible not to hear his pain on tracks like ‘You’re a Big Girl Now’ and ‘If You See Her, Say Hello.’ The common thread throughout is the pain that comes when love dies. Blood on the Tracks endures as one of Dylan’s most honest and heartfelt recordings.

A magnificent example of one of Dylan’s greatest albums, signed in a controlled environment, for his trusted business manager of 30-plus years. Starting Bid $500

Accompanied by a full letter of authenticity from JSA.

Directed and written by D. A. Pennebaker, Dont Look Back covers Bob Dylan’s whirlwind concert tour in England between April 30 and May 10, 1965. The film follows Dylan over the course of eight performances and features several of his friends and contemporaries, such as Joan Baez, Donovan, Alan Price, Marianne Faithfull, John Mayall, Ginger Baker, and Allen Ginsberg. Although Dylan played folk music exclusively on the tour, he would become alienated by many of his fans when he went electric two months later at the 1965 Newport Folk Festival.

Accompanied by a certificate of authenticity from Tracks, and by a letter of provenance from the original recipient: “Several of my school friends and I were lucky enough to get tickets for the concert at Green’s Playhouse on the 5th December 1967… Heading the bill was the Jimi Hendrix Experience…Jimi was the last act on the night & really brought the house down. As an encore, he played Wild Thing with the guitar between his legs…At the end of the concert, I went down to the front of the stage & asked one of the bouncers if he could get Jimi’s autograph on the programme. After several minutes, the bouncer returned with the programme duly signed.”

The 16-date UK package tour kicked off on November 14, 1967, and consisted of a total of 31 shows in 16 cities, with each act playing two shows a night; at each gig, the headlining Experience were allotted exactly 40 minutes, The Move a half an hour, and Pink Floyd were given between 15 and 20 minutes. At this juncture, Hendrix was well on his way to becoming a major star: his first three singles, ‘Hey Joe,’ ‘Purple Haze,’ and ‘The Wind Cries Mary,’ had all been top ten hits, and his debut album, released in May of that year, sat in the top 20 for 33 weeks.

“So now we fly over the mountains / and we sail over the seas”—original handwritten working lyrics by Jimi Hendrix for his introspective

‘Room Full of Mirrors,’ dating to his Londonderry Hotel residencies in 1970

7100. Jimi Hendrix Handwritten Working Lyrics for ‘Room Full of Mirrors’. Exceedingly rare set of handwritten working lyrics by Jimi Hendrix for his song ‘Room Full of Mirrors,’ the first recording of which was made at the Record Plant in New York on August 12, 1968. Although Hendrix made subsequent recordings of the song over the next couple of years, ‘Room Full of Mirrors’ was never placed on an official Hendrix album during his lifetime; an unaltered rough mix of the song, recorded one month before Hendrix’s death on August 20, 1970, was released on the posthumous compilation album Rainbow Bridge in October 1971. A live version of the song, recorded at the Royal Albert Hall on February 24, 1969, was included on the posthumous live album Experience that was released in August 1971.

The lyrics, unsigned, no date (circa March 1970 or August 1970), are handwritten in black felt tip on two off-white 8.25 x 11.75 sheets of Londonderry Hotel letterhead, both of which are entitled at the top by Hendrix in faded red and green felt tip, “Room full of Mirrors,” and “Page I” and “Page II.” The lyrics, in full (spelling and grammar retained):

“I. I use to live in a room full of mirrors – / All I could see was me. / But then Love, came on so strong, that it broke the mirror prison, She set my poor heart free

II. Broken glass use to be all in my head / Jangling, screaming, cutting in my brain / Broken glass was all in my head – it used to fall out my dreams and cut me in my bed – / But love and Hope came and saved me from the dead –

III. I said How can I ever repay you / She said just remember It’s love that will never die / And remember friend and lover…/ the sooner you discover, the sooner our heart’s will come alive / and then She kissed and wiped the tears from my eyes –

So now we fly over the mountains / and we sail over the seas / We’re rideing up through the Vallies together – / you know the whole world is here for us to see / My Lady, my love and me.” In very good to fine condition, with staple holes, small tears, and overall creasing.

‘Room Full of Mirrors’ remains one of Jimi Hendrix’s most introspective works, a vivid metaphor for the emotional turbulence and self-confrontation that shadowed his final years. First written and recorded in 1968, the song and its difficult themes followed Hendrix through a period marked by relentless work, strained relationships, and growing psychological pressure. Though Hendrix returned to the

song repeatedly in the studio and onstage, it remained unreleased in his lifetime—its lyrics, which changed ultimately offering a vision of clarity and escape, a solution to the inner conflict that Hendrix himself, tragically, never found. The song’s title was later used for the name of a 2005 biography by author Charles R. Cross.

Although undated, the Londonderry Hotel letterhead indicates that the lyrics may date to either March 1970 or August 1970. Not long after receiving news that his former girlfriend, Kathy Etchingham, had married, Hendrix left America for England and checked into the Londonderry on March 19, 1970. He brought Etchingham to the hotel to convince her to leave her new husband—he was unsuccessful.

Hendrix met Etchingham four years earlier when he first arrived in London on September 24, 1966, at The Scotch of St. James nightclub. They became a couple during his rise to stardom, and Etchingham served as the inspiration for famous songs like ‘The Wind Cries Mary’ and ‘Foxy Lady.’ By April 1969, the couple had drifted apart. During his short stay at the Londonderry, Hendrix met routinely with Etchingham, went to nightclubs, jammed with fellow musicians, and returned to Olympic Studios, where he recorded his first two albums: Are You Experienced and Axis: Bold as Love.

Five months later, Hendrix returned to London from New York on August 27, 1970, booking the Park Suite at the Londonderry Hotel, where he spent two days giving press interviews before performing at the historic Isle of Wight Festival in the early morning hours of August 31st. Hendrix, who was also preparing for a major European tour, would die just 22 days after his return.

During this final stay at the Londonderry, Hendrix suffered an infamous meltdown. Etchingham discovered that Hendrix was back in London when Angie Burdon called her in distress, saying that she and a friend were in Hendrix’s suite and that he had ‘gone mad.’ When Etchingham arrived, she found the living area wrecked, the two women in their underwear, and Hendrix locked in the bedroom after becoming violent and erratic.

The hotel expelled Hendrix after discovering the damage, prompting him to move to The Cumberland—his last known address. He then traveled to the Isle of Wight for his final UK performance and continued to several troubled European shows before returning to London. Just days later, on September 18, 1970, Hendrix tragically died at the age of 27. Starting Bid $5000

The Rolling Stones’ first American tour, June 5–20, 1964, marked a modest and challenging debut in the U.S., where the band was still largely unknown. Playing a short run of dates across major cities and smaller venues, they often faced small or indifferent audiences, in sharp contrast to the Beatles’ earlier success. The demanding schedule included multiple shows in a single day, with two performances on both June 6th and 7th at the Team Fair of Texas in San Antonio. A week later, a notable moment came with their appearance on Hollywood Palace, which was broadcast on June 13th, when host Dean Martin openly mocked the group’s image. Despite its lukewarm reception, the tour laid the groundwork for their rapid rise in the American market the following year. Starting Bid $300

At this juncture, the Rolling Stones had just concluded their second British tour (February 8–March 7, 1964) and, poised for their first American tour in early June, had recently released their first U.S. single, ‘Not Fade Away,’ through London Records on March 6, 1964, backed with ‘I Wanna Be Your Man.’ The single reached number 48 on the Billboard Hot 100 and later served as the opening track of the American version of the band’s self-titled debut album. In the interim between March 9th and their departure for the United States, the band played several warm-up shows in England and, when time permitted, responded to fan mail—on this occasion even enclosing clipped strands of hair at a fan’s request. A notable multi-signed letter from a pivotal moment in the band’s early rise, elevated furthermore by the uncommon inclusion of hair attributed to four original members, including Brian Jones.

“To the Who, Thank you for working so hard on the television show - really”

7121. Mick Jagger Autograph Letter Signed “to the Who,” Thanking Them for Their Work on ‘The Rolling Stones Rock and Roll Circus’ Television Special . ALS from Mick Jagger to fellow British rock legends The Who, signed “Mick, x,” one page, 8 x 10, The Rolling Stones Ltd. letterhead, no date [circa December 1968]. Short handwritten letter from the Rolling Stones frontman “to the Who,” reading: “Thank you for working so hard on the television show - really.” Includes the original ‘The Rolling Stones Ltd.’ transmittal envelope annotated in felt tip, “The Who.” In fine condition, with light show-through at the center from an old tape stain on the back.

The letter relates to The Who’s participation in The Rolling Stones Rock and Roll Circus, the legendary and long-shelved television special filmed in December 1968 featuring performances by the Rolling Stones, the Who, John Lennon, Yoko Ono, Eric Clapton, Jethro Tull, Taj Mahal, Marianne Faithfull, and others. The Who’s explosive performance of ‘A Quick One, While He’s Away’ became one of the defining moments of the production and contributed heavily to the mythology surrounding the project, with the Stones reportedly dissatisfied with their own performance after an exhausting overnight shoot that stretched into the early hours of December 12.

Portions of the film were later discovered among the belongings of pianist and longtime Stones associate Ian Stewart following his death in 1985, while additional missing footage surfaced in a Who vault in London in 1993. The project was ultimately restored and officially released in 1996. An appealing example of camaraderie between two of the defining British rock bands of the era.Starting Bid $200

7122. Brian Jones Signed ‘Emergency Contract’ for a Rolling Stones Concert - Dated to Their First Concert Tour (September 30, 1963)

. DS, one page, 8 x 10, September 20, 1963. An Eric Easton Ltd. “Emergency Contract” between Philip Hayward and “The Rolling Stones,” with the latter agreeing to perform a concert at the Rex Ballroom in Cambridge on September 30, 1963, for a salary of “£150:0:0.” Signed at the conclusion in ballpoint by founding member Brian Jones. In fine condition. Eric Easton, co-manager of the Stones alongside Andrew Loog Oldham during the band’s formative years, oversaw the group’s early concert bookings and professional engagements, making contracts of this type central to his role in the band’s development.

The agreement dates to a pivotal moment in the group’s ascent, executed just five weeks before the release of ‘I Wanna Be Your Man’ and shortly before the Rolling Stones emerged as one of Britain’s leading live attractions. Notably, the September 30th performance was an extracurricular engagement arranged between dates on the band’s first national package tour, headlined by Bo Diddley and the Everly Brothers—the tour opened the day prior with a concert at the New Victoria Theatre; that the Stones were simultaneously commanding independent bookings while appearing on a major touring bill reflects the band’s rapidly increasing demand. A superb early Rolling Stones performance contract dating from the band’s breakthrough year. Starting Bid $200

Westminster Bank corporate resolution signed by all five Rolling Stones and manager Andrew Loog

Oldham on New Year’s

Eve 1965—establishing banking authority for Nanker Phelge Music Ltd., the publishing company behind the band’s early collective compositions

7123. Rolling Stones Band-Signed ‘Nanker Phelge Music Ltd.’ Banking Resolution Document, Cosigned by Manager Andrew Loog Oldham (December 31, 1965). Partly-printed DS signed by the Rolling Stones and their manager, Andrew Loog Oldham, one page, 8 x 13, December 31, 1965. A Westminster Bank corporate banking resolution document for “Nanker Phelge Ltd. (Music),” the Rolling Stones’ collective songwriting and royalty entity, appoints Westminster Bank Limited as bankers for Nanker Phelge Ltd. and authorizes designated company representatives to execute banking and financial transactions on behalf of the corporation. A handwritten amendment specifies that the bank is authorized to accept the signatures of “Mr A. L. Oldham and Mr W. Wyman only,” reflecting Oldham’s role as secretary and Bill Wyman’s role as chairman. Signed in the designated ‘signature’ field in ballpoint by the full classic lineup: “M. Jagger,” “Brian Jones,” “Bill Wyman,” “Keith Richard,” and “C. R. Watt,” as well as by Oldham. Both Wyman and Oldham sign again below in their respective capacities as chairman and secretary. The document lists the company address as “138, Ivor Court, Gloucester Place, N.W.1” and identifies the signatories in their corporate capacities, including Andrew Loog Oldham as “Director/Secretary,” with Jagger, Jones, Wyman, Richards, and Watts each designated as “Director.” In very good condition, with multiple folds and creases, light toning and staining, and a few edge tears.

“Nanker Phelge” was the pseudonym adopted by the Rolling Stones for songs credited collectively to the band rather than specifically to the Jagger/Richards partnership. The name appeared on numerous early Stones compositions, including ‘Stoned,’ ‘2120 South Michigan Avenue,’ ‘Off the Hook,’ and ‘The Under Assistant West Coast Promotion Man.’ Executed at the close of 1965, the breakthrough year of ‘(I Can’t Get No) Satisfaction’ and the group’s emergence as an international phenomenon, the document reflects the Rolling Stones’ transition into a major international recording and songwriting enterprise. Nanker Phelge Music Ltd. served as the publishing company through which those collective compositions were administered.

Bill Wyman confirmed in his 2002 book, Rolling with the Stones: ‘When the Stones cut ‘Stoned’ – or ‘Stones,’ according to early misprinted pressings – as the B-side to ‘I Wanna Be Your Man,’ Brian suggested crediting it to Nanker Phelge. The entire band would share writing royalties. Phelge came from Edith Grove flatmate Jimmy Phelge, while a Nanker was a revolting face that band members, Brian in particular, would pull.’.

Historic NEMS Presentations

contract signed by Brian Epstein, booking “The Rolling Stones” for their first and only performance at Liverpool’s famed Cavern Club—a legendary concert attended by the Beatles on November 5, 1963

7124.Brian Epstein Signed NEMS Contract for the Only Cavern Club Performance of ‘The Rolling Stones’ (November 5, 1963) . Rare DS, one page, 8.25 x 13.25, September 23, 1963. A NEMS Presentations Ltd. performance contract for a one-night engagement by “The Rolling Stones” at “The Cavern Club” on Tuesday, November 5, 1963, for a fee amended in type to “£65 (Sixty-five pounds).” Additional clauses specify payment terms, performance timing (“one 50 minute spot between 8.0 and 11.30 p.m.”), and a radius restriction preventing the group from appearing within fifteen miles of the venue for five weeks before and one week following the engagement. A NEMS Enterprises ‘With Compliments’ sheet is stapled to the upper left corner. Signed prominently at the conclusion in ink by Brian Epstein. In fine condition, with light creasing and faint edge toning.

This historic engagement proved to be the Rolling Stones’ sole performance at the famed Cavern Club, occurring at a pivotal moment in late 1963 as the band emerged from the London R&B circuit into national prominence. The Beatles, who had previously traveled south to see the Stones perform, were themselves in attendance that night. Years later, Ringo Starr recalled: ‘I remember standing in some sweaty room and watching them on the stage…Keith and Brian—wow! I knew then that the Stones were great.’ George Harrison was similarly struck by the crowd’s reaction: ‘The audience screamed and shouted and danced on tables.’

Following the performance, Mick Jagger reflected: ‘Man it was hot! We almost sweated away. They’ve had so many big groups at the Cavern that you’ve really got to prove yourself, they asked us back so they must like us.’ Bill Wyman similarly recalled the Liverpool reception in his autobiography: ‘While some people were building a wall, metaphorically, dividing the north from the south in pop music, we found no barriers whatsoever from Merseyside fans. Walking around the city we were stopped and chatted to by friendly Liverpudlians. In the evening our show at the Cavern was fantastic, with a marvellous crowd.’ Although the Stones were invited to return, their rapidly expanding popularity soon rendered the Cavern too small to contain their audiences; when they next played for Cavern promoters in 1964, the engagement was moved to the larger Tower Ballroom in New Brighton.

Signed prominently by Epstein on behalf of NEMS Presentations Limited above the company’s printed Liverpool address, the document represents an extraordinary convergence of the Beatles, Brian Epstein, the Cavern Club, and the Rolling Stones at the dawn of the British Invasion. A remarkable and exceptionally rare artifact from one of the defining moments in early British rock history.. Starting Bid $200

THE DOORS

Handwritten notes by Jim Morrison of The Doors, penned

on a letter

asking him if he wants to interview with Tony Thomas on CBC Radio’s Something to Say in May 1970

7153. Jim Morrison Handwritten Notes and Doodle - Agreement for an Interview with Tony Thomas of CBC Radio (May 7, 1970). Handwriting by Jim Morrison on a typed letter sent to The Doors frontman by literary agent Sylva Romano, inquiring whether Morrison would be interested in an interview with the CBC (Canadian Broadcasting Company). Morrison’s handwriting appears at the top and bottom of the letter in both felt and ballpoint; the felt tip portion reads, “He tapes here (portable),” with Morrison adding a line to the upper margin and writing “Next Week.” In ballpoint, Morrison writes the name and phone number of “Tony Thomas,” the CBC Radio interviewer, adds a doodle sketch, and then writes below, “Song Book.” The annotation to the lower border, “interview on May 27, 1970,” is in the hand of The Doors’ office secretary, Katherine Lisciandro. The typed letter from Romano, one page, 8.5 x 11, Mitchell J. Hamilburg Agency letterhead, May 7, 1970, reads: “Tony Thomas who tapes an interview show for the Canadian Broadcasting Company, saw The Lords and the New Creatures in our office and made inquiries to CBC, who said they’d love to have you as the subject of one of the shows. I think it’s an hour-long show—intelligent interviews, and in depth. Please let me know if you’d be interested and available for this. Among other things, it would be a good opportunity to talk to a Canadian audience about your poetry as well as your music. Please call me about this when you get back. Also, I want to get the British rights contract signed, with a couple of amendments I recommend.” In fine condition.

Originates from the collection of Morrison’s close friend and UCLA classmate Frank Lisciandro, editor of the documentary film Feast of Friends, and accompanied by a detailed certificate of authenticity signed by Lisciandro, which reads: “On May 7, 1970, Sylva Romano, who worked for the Literary Agency, Mitchell J. Hamilburg, wrote to Jim Morrison passing on a request for an interview from Tony Thomas, a reporter for the Canadian Broadcasting Company…Jim Morrison wrote on the letter four times with two different pens and he added 2 small designs. The CBC interview did take place at The Doors’ office on May 27, 1970. Tony Thomas and Morrison had a deep and far ranging conversation on many subjects, including youth culture and Jim’s published writings.

In June or July 1970, several months after the film HWY was finished and post-production work was completed, Jim decided to close the

film office. I returned the rented equipment, gathered the boxes of film and sound rolls and trims, and moved them to a storage facility. What was left included posters, books, office and editing items (chairs, an editing table, metal reels, rolls of leader) and miscellaneous notes and papers. I talked with Jim about what to do with these items. After examining what remained, he said he had no use for any of it. He told me that I could have and keep any of the items that still remained in the HWY office. The Tony Thomas letter was one of the items he gave me that day. I have owned the letter with Jim’s words ever since. I certify that the handwritten words on this letter were written by Jim Morrison and are in his own distinctive hand.” Jim Morrison, age 26 and at the height of his fame, was interviewed for CBC Radio’s Something to Say by Tony Thomas at The Doors Workshop on May 27, 1970, shortly after the publication of his first poetry book, The Lords and the New Creatures. A notoriously difficult interview subject, he was persuaded to speak not only about his music but also his writing, as well as his reflections on youth culture and the cultural climate. Softspoken and deliberate, Morrison emerges as an introspective, if at times meandering, subject, with Thomas pressing to frame him as a voice of his generation. The interview aired on September 27, 1970; less than a year later, Morrison died in Paris at age 27.

Selected excerpts from the CBC Radio interview with Thomas capture Morrison thinking through the concerns of his time, observations that resonate today. Asked what young people ‘worship’ or ‘hope for,’ he points to continuity, ‘a joy of existence, self discovery, freedom.’ On student unrest, he frames it not as an anomaly but as a pattern, noting that ‘every revolution has started with students and spread to workers.’

Perhaps most prescient is his response to the Thomas question: ‘Life does seem to become more and more involved and complex. We’re becoming computerized and dehumanized in that process. That bugs me. I wonder how it bothers you and your generation.’

Morrison: ‘There does seem to be a trend toward a return to a kind of primitive outlook on life, a more tribal attitude and I think it’s a natural reaction to industrialization, but unfortunately it’s kind of naive because I think the future is going to become increasingly mechanized, computerized as you call it and I don’t think there’s any turning back. It’s just figuring out a way to survive and thrive in that kind of society. But I don’t think there’s any chance of going back.’ Starting Bid $1000

In this trippy piece of visual art by the Grateful Dead frontman, a dynamic field of prismatic forms cascades across the composition, as sharp, faceted shapes seem to refract light like scattered crystals; the interplay between translucency and structure creates a sense of depth and motion, as if the image is simultaneously dissolving and crystallizing before the viewer’s eye.

7220. Led Zeppelin Signatures (1968) - Signed for a Portland Musical Instrument Dealer. Sought-after vintage pencil signatures of Led Zeppelin’s original lineup—“To Denny, best wishes & thanks, Jimmy Page,” “Best wishes, Robert Plant,” “Best wishes, John Bonham,” and “Good Luck & Thanks, John Paul Jones”—on a white 8.5 x 11 sheet of stationery of Denny’s Music Shop, Portland, Oregon. In very good to fine condition, with intersecting folds, overall creasing, and light edge wear.

These autographs were obtained in December 1968, when the group came to the United States for their first American tour. Led Zeppelin had just formed in July 1968, making this signature set one of the earliest known.

Accompanied by a letter of provenance from original recipient Dennis Handa, in part: “From 1965 through 1973 I owned a music store in Portland, Oregon, called Denny’s Music. Through a friend of mine we became the main source of furnishing stage equipment for major concert tours in the Northwest USA. In the 60’s–early 70’s bands typically would bring their personal gear but would send a Rider ahead requesting what they needed for onstage gear. This was before the big trucks, lighting etc…My store had an arrangement with Sunn Amplifiers and Fender to furnish gear for the Concerts as part of a PR program for the companies…Re Led Zeppelin. I got a call at my store saying that Zeppelins truck had ran into difficulties coming from a concert in Spokane Washington (snow) and would I meet with the band and loan them some instruments for the concert that night at Portland’s Civic Auditorium. I agreed and late that day the band showed up. Jimmy Page picked out an Epiphone Casino guitar (this was used in the part of the concert where he used a violin bow) he had his Les Paul with him. John Bonham picked out a Ludwig drum set and the bass player John Paul Jones as I remember took a Fender precision bass. After they settled on the instruments, I asked them if they wanted to go to a pub around the corner from my store. They agreed and we went. I remember everyone looking at them strange, thinking they were just some hippies. Remember they were very young and this was at the start of their career and US tours.” Starting Bid $1000

Led Zeppelin signatures dated to their raucous performance at the Birmingham Odeon, a hometown show for John Bonham and Robert Plant,

on December 16, 1972, just before the release of Houses of the Holy

7221. Led Zeppelin Signatures - Obtained at the Birmingham Odeon on December 16th, 1972. Vintage signatures of Led Zeppelin on two light green 4.5 x 3.75 album pages, one of which is signed in ballpoint by John Bonham and John Paul Jones, and the other is signed in ballpoint by Jimmy Page and in felt tip by Robert Plant. Both bear collector’s notations dating the signatures to December 16, 1972, when they performed at the Birmingham Odeon in Birmingham, England. In fine condition, with fading to Plant’s signature. Accompanied by a full letter of authenticity from REAL.

A hometown show for John Bonham and Robert Plant, Led Zeppelin’s concert at the Birmingham Odeon occurred just before the release of Houses of the Holy, and is often cited by fans among the band’s finest performances. It featured a dynamic setlist that blended new material – such as ‘The Song Remains the Same’ and ‘The Rain Song’ – with established classics including ‘Rock and Roll,’ ‘Dazed and Confused,’ ‘Stairway to Heaven,’ and an expansive ‘Whole Lotta Love’ medley.

Per an article from the Birmingham Post: ‘It was, said singer Robert Plant, a ‘night of calamity’ for Led Zeppelin on Saturday. It was the first of the band’s two sell-out concerts in Birmingham and their electric machine, which was supposed to produce a background orchestral sound, did not work.

But that did not worry the audience, once they had overcome their frustration at the 40-minute wait. Pop groups are notorious for being late but this was a longer delay than usual and no apology was given until half an hour had elapsed. Then after a cursory apology, the band played for more than two hours and the audience enjoyed every minute of it.

For, despite all the electronic failures, Led Zeppelin were superb. This 23 concert tour is designed to reintroduce them to their British fans after a long stay in America. But the fans had not forgotten them and it was no wonder that both concerts were sold out in less than 1 1⁄2 hours.’ Starting Bid $500

JAZZ, BLUES, AND AMERICAN STANDARDS

“I have finished the music for the opera”— Gershwin announces the composition of Porgy and Bess

7246. George Gershwin Typed Letter Signed on Porgy and Bess: “I have finished the music for the opera and also the orchestrations of the first act”. TLS, one page, 8.25 x 10.75, personal letterhead, May 16, 1935. Letter to Joseph Schillinger, his music teacher, about his progress on the opera Porgy and Bess. In full: “I’ve been wanting to write you for some time since I came back from Florida but so many things are happening that it’s difficult to write a letter these days. I have finished the music for the opera and also the orchestrations of the first act and am now working on the second act scoring, but it goes slowly. Would like to see you one of these days and perhaps continue to take some lessons as I am planning to stay in New York all summer. I would like to clear up the amount outstanding on the organ loan and perhaps we could work this out in lessons. Am leaving town today and will be back Monday. I will call you then.” In very good to fine condition, with a couple of short edge tears.

Joseph Schillinger, the recipient of this letter, was a composer and music teacher who collaborated with many of the era’s leading musicians, including Benny Goodman, Glenn Miller, Tommy Dorsey, and George Gershwin. From 1932 to around 1936, Gershwin frequently studied composition, music theory, and orchestration with Schillinger whenever his schedule permitted. Scholars still debate the extent of Schillinger’s influence on Porgy and Bess.

In Gershwin: His Life and Music, biographer Charles Schwartz observes: ‘Even though the completed scores of all of Gershwin’s orchestral pieces written after the Rhapsody…are in his hand, there is a good chance that they were orchestrated with some help…The orchestrated score for Porgy and Bess is a case in point. All three acts of the opera, beautifully written and well orchestrated, are in Gershwin’s hand. Solely on the basis of the finished product one would assume that he had not been helped in any way. Yet there is evidence that he was aided in his orchestration by Joseph Schillinger. According to Vernon Duke, he and George, as well as Ira… all shared a house on Fire Island during the summer of 1935. All summer long, Duke claims, Gershwin saw Schillinger three times weekly for help in orchestrating the opera.’

Schwartz goes on to quote this exact letter, though he notes that ‘though one might easily infer from this letter that Gershwin sought Schillinger’s help in orchestrating Porgy and Bess, presumably the second and third acts of the opera if not the first act too, there is nothing in the finished score that would substantiate that inference…Schillinger himself, after Gershwin’s death, alleged that he supervised the entire writing of the opera over a period of a year and a half…in defense of his brother and in answer to such a claim, Ira stated in 1944 that ‘lessons like these…unquestionably broaden musical horizons, but the don’t inspire an opera like Porgy.’’ Starting Bid $200

An unfiltered vision of womanhood— original artwork by Warhol muse Edie Sedgwick

7264. Edie Sedgwick Original Mixed Media Female Figure Artwork (1962). American actress, model, and socialite (1943–1971) known as one of Andy Warhol’s superstars and muse to Bob Dylan.

In fine condition.

Sedgwick left the St. Timothy’s School boarding school in 1959 and returned to her family’s La Laguna ranch in California, where she remained until the fall of 1962 when her family forced her to confront her eating disorder. At the age of 19, she was sent to the private Silver Hill psychiatric hospital in New Canaan, Connecticut, before eventually being moved to Bloomingdale, the Westchester Division of New York Hospital, residencies that allowed her to focus on artwork during occupational therapy sessions. Given her history of anorexia and body dysmorphia, this artwork of a nude female figure offers insight into what Sedgwick may or may not have considered to be a healthy female body. She left Bloomingdale soon thereafter and, at the age of 20, she moved to Cambridge, Massachusetts, to study art with her cousin Lily Saarinen in the fall of 1963. From the Michael Post Collection.

Four-page handwritten letter from Janis Joplin to her boyfriend, discussing life back home in Texas, running into old friends at a high school football game—“Most of them were pregnant. That’s nice, I guess, I just wish I could be having children”

7263. Janis Joplin Autograph Letter Signed on Family, Football, and Motherhood - “I just wish I could be having children”. ALS signed “Love, J,” four pages, 5.75 x 7.75, September 10 [1965]. Handwritten letter to her boyfriend, Peter de Blanc, in full: “How are you? I hope you’re doing okay. I don’t know. They call you Sunday, so if you’ve already left the hospital, call me. Jesus, damn Peter. I hope everything is going well for you. We really deserve some good times. At least I think we do. And I’m really ready. Wow, it’s going to be so nice. Just to be, I mean. I can hardly wait.

I have enclosed a picture. Hope you don’t think I am bombarding you. I mean, a letter every day and everything, you might think I’m coming on too strong or something. (I don’t really think you do – I’m only kidding.) (You don’t, do you?).

The family went to the opening football game of Laurie’s school tonight. And we (the Yellow Jackets) won. We beat the Texas City Stingarees, 22-7. Yay! Yay! But of prime importance, the Hussars marched. Sigh. Laura looked so cute! She had on a big, buttony red coat w/ belts all over, & dangledy things on the shoulders, & a short white pleated skirt, $ her $30 boots (white), & a big hat w/ a red feather goodie on top of it. All in all, she looked mostly just cinched in. But she was really thrilled & so worried, & I helped get her ready, & we took pictures of her. At the game, we had Michael’s binoculars & we spotted her and kept screaming, ‘There she is! There she is!’ She was really good. I was very proud, but fortunately I didn’t weep this time. It was a good game. Lots of fun – even Dad was there. And of course I saw a few people that I used to go to school with (I’m an alumnus) & that was nice except that most of them were pregnant. That’s nice, I guess, I just wish I could be having children.

Anyway, the picture – that’s me (isn’t my hair getting long? Sigh…) in my new dress that Mother made for me as we were

leaving for the game. If any of those pictures of you come out, send some to me. I love you. But maybe you’re really pretty sick, and I shouldn’t be talking about frivolities. But, jeez, it’s hard to talk to you when I don’t know what’s going on. Wow, I miss you, baby. This separation jazz is really killing me. I’ll be so glad when we can be together again. Ah, well. Good night, baby, I still love you. Hope you know it. Xxxx. Get well, I need you.” In very fine condition. Accompanied by a modern printed photo of Joplin posing with her family in Texas, which pictures her parents, Seth and Dorothy, her sister, Laura, and her brother, Michael.

Before her rise as the electrifying lead singer of Big Brother & the Holding Company in the summer of 1966, Janis Joplin briefly stepped away from San Francisco at the urging of friends who had grown alarmed at her deteriorating condition. Described as skeletal and weighing just 88 pounds, she returned to her hometown of Port Arthur, Texas, in 1965, aided by a small ‘going home’ fund raised for her bus fare. There, under the care of her parents, she entered rehabilitation and soon enrolled at Lamar University as an anthropology major, embracing a more conventional appearance—including a fashionable beehive hairdo—and lifestyle. With the support of psychiatric social worker Bernard Gierritano, Joplin was able to get and remain sober.

During this period, she stayed in contact with her boyfriend, Peter De Blanc, whom she had left behind in San Francisco. De Blanc, then working for IBM in New York, traveled to Texas to ask her father for permission to marry her, and the couple became engaged in the fall of 1965. Yet the prospect of domestic life proved ill-suited to Joplin, and the engagement ultimately unraveled. By June 1966, she had returned to San Francisco, where she joined Big Brother & the Holding Company and launched her meteoric career. Joplin died tragically of a heroin overdose in 1970 at the age of 27. Starting Bid $1000

Signed to a Secret Romantic Correspondent“My mail is also being monitored”.

The handwritten letters, penned during a period of relative quiet for Beck, reveal a candid, possibly romantic relationship marked by longing, secrecy, and the demands of his mid-’90s career. The letters, in full:

June 1995 - “I hope you are better now. The last time we spoke, you sounded very down. I had food poisoning for about two weeks, which threw my plans out of the window. I hope also that you had a happy Thanksgiving. I know it’s really a big celebration over there. Please write soon and send a picture (without me!) in it. I’m catching up on work after being sick and hope to be over soon. Here’s some pretty bad photos of me trying to stay on a horse! Take care. Bye for now.” Beck adds two postscripts: “P.S. I was invited to stay with friends about two miles away from where you live (for Thanksgiving) but could not go. P.S. Thanks for the photo you sent. Xx.” Includes three color glossy 6 x 4 candid photos of Beck on horseback, annotated on the reverse, “Colorado ‘95.”

April 30th 1996 - “Sorry I took so long to write, but things have been chaotic over here. I loved your letter especially the tearing off of clothes bit. Tony, I think my mail is being tampered with so it would be better to address it to the London one. I can’t be sure but it would make sure only I read the letters. I hope you have had no more horrible experiences! and that you are well. Send a picture of yourself and I’ll send an eye and lips shot!” Beck adds a postscript: “P.S. I’m definitely coming to U.S. soon. I’ll call you soon about it. Xx.”

June 27th 1996 - “Thank you so much for the really nice present that you sent me. Unfortunately the summer here is really disappointing so I haven’t had a chance to test it yet! Those photos are beautiful but it’s difficult for me to look at them if you know what I mean. You’re in my thoughts anyway and to suddenly see a photo. I’ve been working 16 - 18 hours a day so have just about run myself into the ground. I’ll be going to L.A. in July to start my new band project. I’ll write again soon. I hope you will too.” On the reverse of the page, Beck writes “love you.”

August 8th, 1996 - “Sorry, I haven’t been in touch for a while, although I have called a few times. I have been completely snowed under with work, trying to get my new material finished. I hope you haven’t forgotten me! I’ll call you this week for sure. I must finish as I am in a post office! I miss you.”

August 1996 - “Please forgive my silence. It’s been very difficult to make contact with you given the situation. My phone book has had your number scribbled out so violently that the pen cut through three pages. My mail is also being monitored and otherwise tampered with. In any case, I’m still missing you a whole lot. I hope you’re doing fine. Bill was in London recently, but I didn’t think it would be too cool to ask him for your number. Please write soon to Hereford Rd address. Love and everything else.”

September 1996 - “I am staying in London this Sunday night. I will call you from there when I will explain what’s been happening. I hope you will be able to receive the call in private. If you need to call me back, I’ll let you have their number. I hope I have not upset you too much however I quite understand everything you say in your letter. Love the photos! Lots of love. Speak to you Sun 8pm U.S. time.”

Included with the letters is a colorized 10.25 x 13.5 photo of Jeff Beck posing with his guitar, the reverse bearing an affixed Post-It note with ANS signed “JB, xxx,” which reads: “Sorry this is the only close-up I could find! Lots of love.” In overall fine condition.

Eric Clapton’s personally-owned circa 1928 Gibson L-3 concert-size hollow-body acoustic guitar— originally sold in 1999 to benefit the Crossroads Centre

7323. Eric Clapton’s Personally-Owned 1928 Gibson L-3 Acoustic Guitar. Eric Clapton’s personally-owned circa 1928 Gibson L-3 concert-size acoustic guitar, serial no. 85566, retaining its “Gibson Masterpiece Model” label inside, annotated in ink with model and serial number: “Style L3, Number 85566.”

The guitar boasts a spruce top in a sunburst finish, f-holes, maple body, mahogany neck, ebony fingerboard with nineteen frets and pearl dot inlays, adjustable ebony bridge, and metal tailpiece. Exhibits overall wear, including a surface chip to the soundboard below the neck and some crazing to the finish, but tunes and plays nicely.

Provenance: Lot 30, Eric Clapton Guitars in Aid of the Crossroads Centre, Christie’s June 24, 1999. Their lot description notes: “This guitar was given to Clapton by a mutual Mississippi Blues fan and he kept it at home for some time.”

Accompanied by a tie-on handwritten label by Clapton’s guitar tech Lee Dickson (“Gibson L3, 85566”), Christie’s lot tag, “E.C. The Auction” guitar pick, and hardshell contour case lined in green velvet (which has a somewhat musty odor).

Eric Clapton is widely celebrated for his masterful guitar work, and while he’s often associated with Fender Stratocasters, his early career prominently featured Gibson guitars. In the late 1960s, Clapton wielded a Gibson Les Paul with Cream, shaping the raw, blues-driven sound that defined the era. He also played a Gibson ES-335 and the iconic SG nicknamed ‘The Fool.’ Additionally, his acoustic work—especially on the legendary MTV Unplugged album—showcases his deep connection to blues roots, with warm, expressive tones from his orchestra-size Martin, a meticulously crafted tribute to pre-war guitars such as this Gibson L-3.

The Gibson L-3 was a high-grade concert-size hollow-body acoustic produced during the late 1920s, representing Gibson’s transition from traditional parlor guitars to more projection-oriented instruments suited for blues and early jazz musicians. Compact and highly responsive, the model is prized for its connection to early American blues and pre-war Gibson craftsmanship. Starting Bid $1000

Rare and controversial ‘smoking boy’ poster made for the Sex Pistols’ international debut concert at the Club Du Chalet Du Lac in Paris, France, on September 3, 1976—

one of only 100 posters printed for the show

7388. Sex Pistols Rare 1976 Club Du Chalet Concert Poster (Paris, September 3, 1976)

- The Band’s International Debut. Exceedingly rare original 21 x 30.75 concert poster for the Sex Pistols at Club Du Chalet Du Lac in Paris, France, on September 3, 1976. The controversial poster features blue stencil-style text, a central pink guitar shape, and a series of four images of a nude boy smoking a cigarette. Text above reads: “London’s most notorious band!” Rolled and in very good condition, with folds and creases, light stains, tack holes, and a small area of edge loss. Accompanied by a certificate of authenticity from Tracks. Only 100 copies are believed to have been printed, with just a scant few surviving in the decades since the concert.

Manager Malcolm McLaren devised the provocative ‘smoking boy’ motif in November 1975 for an early Sex Pistols t-shirt sold at his King’s Road boutique, Sex. Interviewed by Paul Gorman in 2008, McLaren recalled: ‘This was my first attempt at making a Sex Pistols t-shirt…I wanted to create something of a stir…the way this boy stood with his cigarette could look like a smoking gun.’ The image, sourced from a gay magazine, was paired with a guitar outline based on Glen Matlock’s bass. When Bernie Rhodes refused to print it, McLaren pressured Matlock—then an art student at Saint Martin’s—to produce a small run, reportedly no more than 40 shirts, many distributed to promote the band. As shown here, the design was later adapted into a poster for the band’s September 1976 Chalet du Lac performances. During production, Rhodes attempted to obscure parts of the image with lettering, later remarking, ‘Malcolm likes to titillate, but I like to get down to substance.’

The Sex Pistols’ two performances at the Chalet du Lac on September 3 and 5, 1976, marked their first international shows, spotlighting both their rising notoriety – just months before the release of their debut single – and the growing influence of British punk abroad. The venue, newly refurbished from a disco into a live music club, reopened on September 3rd with a free event that drew more than 2,000 people, including regular clubgoers and members of the Bromley Contingent who had traveled from London, among them Siouxsie Sioux, Steven Severin, and Billy Idol. Booked by photographer and promoter Pierre Bénain – tasked with finding the most fashionable British band – the Sex Pistols arrived late after their equipment was lost at Heathrow, forcing them to begin after midnight without a soundcheck. Opening with ‘Anarchy in the U.K.,’ they delivered a notoriously chaotic performance, with reportedly poor sound prompting the club owner to try to halt the show after just a few songs. Though reactions were mixed, the shock of this raw, confrontational style proved electrifying, helping ignite the early French punk scene; a second performance on the afternoon of September 5th was recorded and later circulated as a bootleg.

The September 20, 1976, concert at London’s 100 Club marked the opening night of the seminal “100 Club Punk Special,” a two-day event widely regarded as a defining moment in the emergence of British punk. Featuring performances by the Sex Pistols and the Clash—alongside Siouxsie and the Banshees in their debut appearance and Subway Sect— the show brought together the movement’s key early acts on a single bill. Notorious for its chaotic atmosphere and brief outbreak of violence, the event drew significant attention and helped crystallize punk as a distinct and confrontational cultural force.

“Your part is on track 12…Of course change it as you like & sing my part”—handwritten letter from Chrissie Hynde to Friends actress Lisa Kudrow, forwarding her updated handwritten lyrics to the show’s classic song, ‘Smelly Cat,’ which Kudrow famously sang as the TV character Phoebe Buffay

7410. The Pretenders: Chrissie Hynde Autograph Letter Signed to Friends Actress Lisa Kudrow, Sending Her Handwritten Lyrics to the Show’s Iconic Song, ‘Smelly Cat’. ALS signed “Love, Chrissie,” with handwritten lyrics to the song, ‘Smelly Cat,’ sent to Friends actress Lisa Kudrow, who sang the song as her television character, Phoebe Buffay, in the sixth episode of the show’s second season, ‘The One with the Baby on the Bus,’ which aired on November 2, 1995. Hynde’s handwritten letter, one page, 8.25 x 11.75, September 4, 1999, in full: “Your part is on track 12. ( - The middle and something at the very end.) Of course change it as you like & sing my part or whatever — Hell, we’re not proud (not after this we’re not!).” Hynde adds a short postscript: “Loved you in Analyze This.” The included lyrics, which are marked “Lisa” on the back of the second page, read: “1. SC SC, what are they feeding you / SC SC, you’re getting fat / I think that I’m gonna be sick / Ears & lips, & nose & dick / Heart of red tail of pink / 2. All the dogs in the neighborhood will say that it’s for your own goo d/ They want you fat so you can’t run / No fun babe no fun / Smelly cat SC, boredom makes you eat like that / I saw you in a shopping mall / 3. Smelly Cat SC, It’s not your fault / If you knew what was in your food / Let’s say it might affect your mood / You smell like something dead x 3.” Includes a promotional Reprise Records CD single for ‘Smelly Cat’ by Phoebe Buffay and the Hairballs featuring The Pretenders, with credits to “Chrissie Hynde / Lisa Kudrow.” In overall fine condition. ‘Smelly Cat’ was one of those small, quirky moments from Friends that somehow took on a life of its own. Sung by Lisa Kudrow as Phoebe Buffay, the offbeat tune first appeared in Season 2’s ‘The One with the Baby on the Bus,’ which guest-starred Chrissie Hynde as Stephanie Schiffer, a polished musician hired to replace Phoebe at Central Perk—only to end up learning ‘Smelly Cat’ from Phoebe herself. What began as a throwaway joke quickly became a signature bit, with Kudrow bringing the song back again and again over the show’s ten-season run. Fan enthusiasm eventually led to a studio version: Kudrow teamed up with Hynde and the Pretenders—cheekily billed as Phoebe Buffay and the Hairballs—to record ‘Smelly Cat Medley’ for the 1999 album Friends Again. By then, ‘Smelly Cat’ had grown into a full-fledged fan favorite, often ranked among the show’s most memorable moments and even mentioned alongside its theme song. Its legacy carried on beyond the series as well: Kudrow revisited it in a surprise duet with Taylor Swift during the 1989 World Tour in 2015, and later performed it with Lady Gaga during the 2021 Friends reunion special.

7409. Madonna Signed Photograph. Glossy 8 x 10 half-length photo of Madonna wearing a black crop top with the word “Healthy” across her chest, signed vertically in felt tip. In fine condition, with a PSA label affixed to the lower left corner. Encapsulated in a PSA/DNA authentication holder.

Madonna’s iconic ‘Healthy’ crop-top photo session with photographer Ken Regan took place on February 22, 1985, at the Mondrian Hotel on the Sunset Strip in West Hollywood. Regan later recalled first encountering Madonna in the hotel elevator at 4 a.m., mistakenly assuming she was ‘a lady of the evening,’ explaining, ‘She wasn’t that big then,’ despite the recent charttopping success of ‘Like a Virgin’ and her headline-making MTV Video Music Awards performance.

The resulting shoot became one of Madonna’s defining early image sessions, with Regan photographing her in the now-famous ‘Healthy’ crop top, rosary crucifix, rubber bracelets, lace-trimmed white skirt, beauty mark, and wild, teased hair. Regan particularly remembered the stripped-down nature of the session: ‘What was great was that no publicist was there, no manager…she was there by herself.’ He added, ‘That was the most successful shoot that I’ve ever had. Twenty-four magazine covers around the world.’ Starting Bid $200

The album sleeve and record are included. Accompanied by a full letter of authenticity from REAL.

Dirty Mind, Prince’s third studio album, was released on October 8, 1980, by Warner Bros. Marked by a bold fusion of rock, funk, and new wave, it introduced his high-register vocals, sexually explicit lyrics, and androgynous image, elements that would shape early 1980s popular music. Though it peaked at number 45 on the Billboard 200, the album was critically acclaimed, with the single ‘Uptown’ reaching number five on the Billboard Hot Soul Singles chart, and has since been widely ranked among the greatest albums of the decade and of all time. Starting Bid $300

Fabulous throw pillow adorned with white and pink faux roses, approximately 14˝ x 11˝ x 5˝, purchased in 1985 for Prince’s house on Galpin Boulevard in Chanhassen, Minnesota. In fine condition. Accompanied by a letter of provenance from Prince’s former assistant, Karen Krattinger, who attests that this decorative pillow was displayed in Prince’s personal bedroom and sitting area, and was gifted to her when Prince decided to redecorate his home after breaking up with his fiancée, Susannah Melvoin.

7465. David Bowie: Gail Ann Dorsey’s StageWorn agnès b. Suit Ensemble from BBC Two’s Later... with Jools Holland (September 20, 2002). Vibrant stage-worn agnès b. black-and-red silk-blend velvet suit ensemble worn by bassist Gail Ann Dorsey when she performed with David Bowie on the 10th anniversary show of BBC Two’s Later… with Jools Holland on September 20, 2002, the opening episode of the program’s 20th series. The two-piece suit is comprised of a tailored three-button jacket and matching trousers, both made in France by agnès b. of Paris. The striking jacket features an all-over abstract circular motif in vivid red flocked velvet against a black velvet ground, accented by peaked lapels, flap pockets, and a black satin lining. The coordinating trousers are fashioned in complementary black velvet with bold vertical red velvet striping for a dramatic stage-ready silhouette. Both retain their original “agnès b. Paris” labels, with the jacket marked size 1 and the pants dated September 17, 2001. In overall fine condition, with expected light wear from stage use.

Bowie’s appearance on September 20, 2002, marked his final performance on Later… with Jools Holland, the influential BBC music series on which he had appeared several times beginning in 1995. Backed by longtime collaborators, including bassist and vocalist Gail Ann Dorsey, Bowie performed a five-song set featuring ‘Rebel Rebel,’ ‘Look Back in Anger,’ ‘5:15 The Angels Have Gone,’ ‘Heathen (The Rays),’ and ‘Ashes to Ashes,” although only three of the songs and the interview were selected to air when the concert was broadcast on October 18, 2002.

Dorsey can be seen wearing this ensemble throughout the five-song set, during which she played bass, sang backing vocals, and, during the finale performance of ‘Heathen (The Rays),’ played tambourine. As the song concluded, Dorsey and Bowie are shown embracing just offstage.

The appearance marked Bowie’s final performance on Later… with Jools Holland and came during his celebrated reunion with producer Tony Visconti for Heathen, now regarded as one of the defining works of his later career. Heathen was quickly followed by 2003’s Reality, but while touring in support of that album in 2004, Bowie suffered a heart attack and subsequently all but retired from live performance.

French designer agnès b. (Agnès Andrée Marguerite Troublé, born 1941) launched her influential namesake label in Paris in 1976, becoming known for understated, accessible designs inspired by vintage and flea-market fashion. Her enduring ‘snap cardigan,’ introduced in 1979, became an international signature piece and remains one of the most recognizable garments associated with the brand. Starting Bid $300

Breathtaking early original Alexander McQueen evening dress worn by Gail Ann Dorsey when she performed with David Bowie at his 50th birthday concert celebration in New York City on January 9, 1997—including an iconic rendition of
‘Under Pressure’ and leading Madison Square Garden in a rendition of ‘Happy Birthday’

7464. David Bowie: Gail Ann Dorsey’s Stage-Worn Alexander McQueen Evening Dress from David Bowie’s 50th Birthday Concert at Madison Square Garden (1997). Stunning stage-worn Alexander McQueen semi-sheer evening dress worn by bassist Gail Ann Dorsey while performing with David Bowie at the latter’s 50th birthday concert celebration at Madison Square Garden in New York City on January 9, 1997. The dress, which bears no size or maker tag, is constructed of a dark slate-blue floral lace textile with dramatic asymmetrical construction and deconstructed detailing characteristic of the designer’s early avant-garde aesthetic. The form-fitting silhouette features a single three-quarterlength sleeve opposite an intentionally exposed shoulder, an open back, and a revealing split lower skirt panel. Executed in intricate floral lace with alternating tonal blue-gray and pale silver-white patterning over an open mesh ground, the dress combines romantic textilework with McQueen’s signature tension between elegance and sensuality. In fine condition.

David Bowie’s 50th Birthday Celebration Concert, billed as David Bowie and Friends: A Very Special Concert, was held at Madison Square Garden in New York City on January 9, 1997, one day after Bowie’s fiftieth birthday. Staged before a sold-out crowd of nearly 15,000 fans, the landmark event served both as a retrospective celebration of Bowie’s career and as the public launch of material from his then-forthcoming album Earthling. The concert also benefited the charity Save the Children.

The evening featured an extraordinary lineup of guest performers reflecting Bowie’s wide-ranging influence across generations of rock and alternative music, including Lou Reed, Billy Corgan of the Smashing Pumpkins, Foo Fighters and Dave Grohl, Robert Smith of The Cure, Frank Black of the Pixies, and Sonic Youth.

Among the setlist highlights was a celebrated performance of “Under Pressure,” featuring the remarkably talented Gail Ann Dorsey on bass and vocals as she assumed Freddie Mercury’s original vocal parts opposite Bowie. If that moment wasn’t special enough, Dorsey also led the assembled musicians and full Madison Square Garden audience in a rafter-shaking rendition of ‘Happy Birthday’ during the concert finale.

Alexander McQueen (1969-2010) remains one of the most influential and visionary designers of the modern era, revolutionizing fashion in less than two decades with his theatrical silhouettes, technical mastery, and provocative romanticism. Founder of his eponymous label in 1992 and chief designer for Givenchy from 1996 to 2001, McQueen earned four British Designer of the Year awards before his untimely death at age 40. Original stage- and runway-worn McQueen garments from this formative early period are of the utmost rarity and desirability, with the present example elevated further by its direct association with David Bowie’s historic 50th Birthday Celebration Concert at Madison Square Garden. Starting Bid $1000

7466. David Bowie: Gail Ann Dorsey’s John Richmond Leather Jacket - Worn on the Cover of Her Debut Album, The Corporate World. John Richmond ‘Man’ black leather asymmetrical moto jacket worn by Gail Ann Dorsey on the front cover of her debut album, The Corporate World, released in the United States on Sire Records in 1989. The supple leather jacket, size medium, features a silver-tone zip-front closure, angled zip pockets, snap-tab shoulders, and striking tattoo-inspired sleeve artwork with skulls, serpents, roses, and banner motifs. Fully lined in gold-tone acetate, the jacket combines a sleek, fitted biker silhouette with the bold rock aesthetic associated with the Italian designer label. In fine condition. Accompanied by printed photographs of the album’s front and back covers, both signed by Dorsey and picturing her wearing the offered jacket.

Gail Ann Dorsey’s debut studio album, The Corporate World, was released by WEA in 1988 and by Sire Records in the United States in 1989. Produced by renowned bassist Nathan East, the album features guest appearances by Eric Clapton and Gang of Four guitarist Andy Gill. Blending elements of rock, pop, and R&B, the record introduced Dorsey’s distinctive songwriting and genre-crossing style that would later define her acclaimed career as both a solo artist and collaborator. It received a five-star review and was voted one of the Top 50 Albums of the Year by London’s Q magazine.

John Richmond leather jackets are closely associated with the designer’s signature rock-inspired and biker-influenced aesthetic that has attracted an array of celebrity admirers since the label’s founding in 1987. Known for bold graphics, rebellious tailoring, and punk-inspired styling, Richmond’s designs have been worn by major music icons including Mick Jagger, David Bowie, Madonna, George Michael, Annie Lennox, Axl Rose, Bryan Adams, and Michael Jackson. George Michael notably wore Richmond’s celebrated “Destroy” jacket in the music video for his hit single ‘Faith,’ helping cement the designer’s reputation for fashion rooted in rock ’n’ roll culture. Starting Bid $200

7467.David Bowie: Gail Ann Dorsey’s Jean Paul Gaultier Stage-Worn Dress from the Special Rai Concert, 1,2,3 Soleils (1998). Beautiful stage-worn Jean Paul Gaultier Maille multicolor knit slip dress worn by bassist Gail Ann Dorsey when she performed with Algerian artists Rachid Taha, Khaled, and Faudel during the special 1, 2, 3 Soleils concert at the Palais Omnisports de Paris-Bercy in Paris, France, on September 26, 1998. The Italian-made dress is executed in a vividly striped open-knit textile with a folkloric geometric yoke in olive green and ochre. The body features alternating vertical bands of turquoise, burgundy, yellow, ivory, and black, framed by orange trim and delicate shoulder straps, and the hem is finished with an intricate zigzag knit border in orange and metallic gold tones. The interior retains its original “Jean Paul Gaultier Maille” label. In fine condition. Read more online at www.RRAuction.com. Starting Bid $200

Conditions of Sale

ANYONE EITHER REGISTERING TO BID OR PLACING A BID (“BIDDER”) ACCEPTS THESE CONDITIONS OF SALE AND ENTERS INTO A LEGALLY, BINDING, ENFORCEABLE AGREEMENT WITH R&R AUCTION COMPANY OF MASSACHUSETTS, LLC (“RR AUCTION”) TOGETHER WITH BIDDER, THE “PARTIES”).

This Agreement contains important provisions that control rights and liabilities, and specifically has provisions governing how disputes are handled as well as LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY that can be imposed upon RR Auction, WAIVER OF JURY and ARBITRATION PROVISIONS. This acknowledgement is a material term of these Conditions of Sale and of the consideration under which RR Auction agrees to these terms. PLEASE READ CAREFULLY.

The following terms and conditions (“Conditions of Sale”) constitute the sole terms and conditions under which RR Auction will offer for sale and sell the property on its website, and/or described in the catalog of items for auction (the “Catalog”). These Conditions of Sale constitute a binding agreement between the Parties with respect to the auction in which Bidder participates (the “Auction”). By bidding at the Auction, whether in person, through an agent or representative, by telephone, facsimile, online, absentee bid, or by any other form of bid or by any other means, 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.

Section 1

The Parties1.1 RR Auction and Auction

This Auction is presented by RR Auction, a d/b/a/ of R&R Auction Company of Massachusetts, LLC, as identified with the applicable licensing information on the title page of the Catalog or on the www.RRauction.com Internet site. The Auction is conducted under these Conditions of Sale. Announcements and corrections from the podium at live auctions and those made through the Conditions of Sale appearing on the Internet at RRauction.com supersede those in the printed Catalog.

1.2

Bidder

Bidder shall mean the original Bidder on the property offered for sale by 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.

The rights granted to Bidder under these 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 without the express written assent of RR Auction. Bidder may not transfer, assign, or otherwise convey these Conditions of Sale or any of the rights herein, and such purported transfer, assignment, or conveyance shall be null and void. No third party may rely on any benefit or right conferred on any Bidder by these Conditions of Sale, and no third party is intended as a beneficiary of these Conditions of Sale.

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

All Bidders must meet RR Auction’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.

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 and agrees to be bound by these Conditions of Sale in addition to company for whom the Bidder is acting

By accepting the Conditions of Sale, Bidder personally and unconditionally guarantees payment.

Section 2 Bidding Privileges

2.1 In order to place bids, Bidders who have not established an account with RR Auction must either furnish satisfactory credit information (including two collectibles-related business references) or supply additional information if requested, 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. Privileges will be granted at the sole discretion of RR Auction. 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 a cash deposit prior to RR Auction’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.

2.2 Bidder providing any false or misleading information provided in connection with the registration shall be a material breach of the Conditions of Sale and in addition to any other remedies at law shall excuse RR Auction from performance under these Conditions of Sale, including the right to any refund.

2.3 Bidding privileges may be revoked without notice, for any reason, at the sole discretion of RR Auction .

Section 3

Buyer’s Premium

3.1 The Bidder acknowledges and agrees that a 25% buyer’s premium will be added to the hammer price on all individual lots sold in timed and live Auctions. . For payment other than by cash, delivery will not be made unless and until full payment has been received by RR Auction, i.e., check or wired funds have fully cleared. Unless otherwise agreed in 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 earlier. Bidder’s failure to pay any payment in full when due required shall constitute a material breach, and in addition to other damages available under contract or law, at RR Auction’s election, RR Auction may cancel the sale and require full premium still be due along with interest at 1.5% per month from the date of breach, or at the maximum legally allowable rate.

Section 4

Bidding

4.1 Each Bidder’s determination of its bid should be based upon its own examination of the item(s) and independent investigation, rather than any reliance as to what is represented in the Catalog, online or elsewhere. Bidder affirms that it regards any statements made by RR Auction concerning the item as solely opinion and that Bidder is making its own inspection and independent evaluation of the goods, and is not relying upon any description or statements by RR Auction (including as to quality, authenticity, provenance, ownership, liens existing, on goods legality, or value) in making its determination to bid on or purchase an item. In any purchase or sale, the value of the item(s) is determined by the price. THE BIDDER HEREBY ASSUMES ALL RISKS CONCERNING ANY AND ALL PURCHASES TO THE FULLEST EXTENT UNDER APPLICABLE LAW.

4.2 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 Buyer’s Premium) that the Bidder is willing and able to pay. Since other Bidders (by mail, facsimile, online, and in person) will be present, and since a reoffering could damage the momentum of the sale, once the hammer has fallen and RR Auction has announced the winning Bidder, such Bidder is unconditionally bound to pay for the lot, even if the Bidder has made a mistake.

4.3 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.

4.4 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 and Bidder has fully satisfied any outstanding financial obligations to RR Auction (including as it concerns any other lots). RR Auction reserves the right to require payment in full before delivering any lot to the successful Bidder.

4.5 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 upon the earlier of shipment to Bidder or in Bidder’s possession.

4.6 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 fur-

ther grants RR Auction a lien consisting of a senior security interest (or purchase money security interest to the extent applicable) in such sums or items to the fullest extent applicable, authorizes RR Auction to file documents concerning the interest, and Bidder agrees to execute any further 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 fees and expenses, until the indebtedness is paid.

4.7 By bidding in this sale, Bidder personally and unconditionally guarantees payment. 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 a principal, director or officer that they he or she personally and unconditionally guarantees any payment due RR Auction.

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

Section 5 Bidding Options

5.1 Non-Internet bids (including but not limited to in-person, facsimile, phone and mail bids) are treated similarly to floor bids in that they must be on-increment. Any in-person, facsimile, 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 Bidder’s high bid.

5.2 When identical 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. RR Auction is not responsible for executing mail bids or facsimile bids received on or after the day the first lot is sold, nor Internet bids submitted after the published closing time; nor is RR Auction responsible for proper execution of bids submitted by telephone, mail, facsimile, e-mail, Internet, or in person once the Auction begins.

5.3 In all Auctions, bids on an item must raise the current high bid by at least 10%, or as specified on a per-Auction basis. 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 RR Auction.

5.4 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 RR Auction 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). For live auctions, RR Auction will have final discretion in the event that any dispute should arise between Bidders. RR Auction 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, RR Auction’s sale record is conclusive.

Section 6 Payment

6.1 Subject to fulfillment of all of the Conditions of Sale set forth herein, upon the sooner of (1) the passing of title to the offered lot pursuant to these Conditions of Sale, or (2) possession of the offered lot by the Bidder, 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 RR Auction 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 sixty (60) business days following its sale and, if it is not so removed, RR Auction may send the purchased property to a public warehouse for the account, at the risk and expense of the Bidder.

6.2 Payment is due upon closing of the Auction session, or upon presentment of an invoice. RR Auction 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, RR Auction’s election to void a sale does not relieve the Bidder from their obligation to pay RR Auction its fees (seller’s and Buyer’s Premium) on the lot and any other damages pertaining to the lot.

6.3 All sales for total invoices greater than $1,000 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.

6.4 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) calendar day hold, and ten (10) business days when drawn on an international bank. Clients with pre-arranged credit status may receive immediate credit for payments via e-Check, personal or corporate checks.

6.5 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.

6.7 If RR Auction refers any unpaid invoice to an attorney for collection, the Bidder agrees to pay and shall be liable for RR Auction’s attorney’s fees, court costs, and other collection costs incurred by RR Auction in addition to the invoice amount and interest the greater of 1.5% per month or at the maximum legally allowable rate from date of invoice to collection. If RR Auction 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.

6.8 RR Auction shall have a lien against the merchandise purchased by the Bidder (as well as to the extent it is a consignor any other monies owed or due to Bidder) to secure payment of the Auction invoice. RR Auction is further granted a lien and the right to retain possession of any other property of the Bidder then held by RR Auction or its affiliates to secure payment of any Auction invoice or any other amounts due RR Auction or affiliates from the Bidder. With respect to these lien rights, RR Auction 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 Bidder waives any and all rights of offset he might otherwise have against RR Auction and the consignor of the merchandise included on the invoice (the Consignor”). If a Bidder owes RR Auction or its affiliates on any account, RR Auction 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.

6.9 All checks, cashiers checks, bank checks, or money orders are payable to R&R Auction Company of Massachusetts, LLC. RR Auction clients with an invoice totaling $1,000 or under will have the option to pay by VISA, Mastercard, Discover or Paypal. All Paypal payments must be sent to FinanceDepartment@ rrauction.com. Authorize.net, a third-party service provider contracted by RR Auction for processing on-line payments, charges a nonrefundable service fee of 3%, which will be added to your final invoice should you pay by credit/debit card.

Section 7 Sales Tax

RR Auction is a remote seller and we are now required to collect Sales/Use Tax from our bidders. The states that we have nexus in we will be required to collect and remit sales tax on your behalf. Each state has different requirements to meet nexus. When RR Auction has achieved a certain monetary and/or invoice threshold in each state we will apply sales tax to your total invoice. The states that are affected are: ARIZONA, ARKANSAS, CALIFORNIA, COLORADO, CONNECTICUT, FLORIDA, GEORGIA, ILLINOIS, INDIANA, IOWA, KANSAS, KENTUCKY, MAINE, MARYLAND, MASSACHUSETTS, MICHIGAN, MINNESOTA, NEBRASKA, NEVADA, NEW JERSEY, NEW YORK, NORTH CAROLINA, OHIO, OKLAHOMA, PENNSYLVANIA,RHODE ISLAND, TENNESSEE, TEXAS, UTAH, VIRGINIA, WASHINGTON, WISCONSIN

If we have not achieved nexus in a particular state it is still your responsibility to pay sales tax on your purchases.

The sales tax rate is determined by the State, Country, and City where purchases are shipped to. If you decide to pick up your purchases at our New Hampshire location you will not be required to pay sales tax. The State of New Hampshire does not have a general sales and use tax. All purchases picked up at our Massachusetts location will be taxed at the current rate of 6.25%.

If you have a resale number please email Sue@RRAuction.com or fax to (603) 732-4288 a copy of your state resale certificate and you will be exempt from paying sales tax.

Section 8

Delivery; Shipping; and Handling Charges

Bidder is liable for shipping and handling and providing accurate information as to shipping or delivery locations and arranging for such. RR Auction 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 a credit card on file with RR Auction.

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

All duties, customs, and any other import charges are the responsibility of the bidder.

Section 9

Title

Title shall not pass to the successful Bidder until all invoices of Bidder (including those pertaining to the item(s) at issue) and amounts owed to RR Auction are paid in full. It is the responsibility of the Bidder to provide adequate insurance coverage for the items once they have been delivered to a common carrier or third-party shipper.

Section 10

Rights Reserved

RR Auction reserves the right, at any time before, during or after an auction has ended to: withdraw any lot before or at the time of the Auction, cancel any bid, 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, cancellation, or postponement under any circumstances. RR Auction reserves the right to refuse to accept bids from anyone at any time.

Section 11

Conducting the Auction

11.1 RR Auction reserves the right to postpone the Auction 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.

11.2 RR Auction’s Discretion: RR Auction shall determine opening bids and bidding increments. RR Auction has the right in its absolute discretion to reject any bid in the event of dispute between Bidders or if RR Auction 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 Auctions record of final sale shall be conclusive. RR Auction also may reject any bid if RR Auction decides either that any bid is below the reserve of the lot or article or that an advance is insufficient. Unless otherwise announced by RR Auction at the time of sale, no lots may be divided for the purpose of sale.

11.3 Reserves

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. RR Auction may, from time to time, bid on items that it does not own. RR Auction may execute bids consecutively or otherwise up to one bid increment below the reserve.

11.4 Off-Site Bidding

Bidding by telephone, facsimile, online, 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.

11.5 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 (the “Estimate Prices”). 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. Estimate Prices 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).

11.6 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.

11.7 Before the Auction:

Bidder may attend pre-sale viewing for all of RR Auction’s auctions at no charge. All property to be auctioned is usually on view for several days prior to the sale. Bidder is encouraged to examine lots thoroughly. Bidder may also request condition reports (see below). RR Auction’s staff are available at viewings and by appointment.

11.8 Maximum Bids In All Auctions:

To maximize Bidder’s chance of winning, RR Auction strongly encourages the use of maximum bids. RR Auction will then bid for Bidder until the lot reaches Bidder’s specified maximum. Maximum 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.

11.9 Successful Bids:

The fall of RR Auction’s hammer indicates the final bid. RR Auction will record the paddle number of the Bidder. If Bidder’s salesroom or absentee bid is successful, Bidder will be notified after the sale by mailed or emailed invoice.

11.10 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. RR Auction 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.

11.11 Bidding in Timed Auction:

Bidder may open, monitor, and/or raise bids at any time before the close of a lot through www.rrauction.com. RR Auction offers a callback service the day of the Auction, but Bidder is responsible for supplying a correct telephone number(s) where Bidder can be reached until the Auction closes. Bidder must request this service in writing. RR Auction will make reasonable efforts to ensure that Bidders who request a callback are contacted if outbid; however, RR Auction does not guarantee this service and it is merely a courtesy and not an enforceable right. 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 above the reserve. The auctioneer will not specifically identify bids placed on behalf of the consignor to protect the reserve.

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. Winning bidders will be notified by RR Auction. RR Auction is not 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.

Any Bidder may bid on any lot prior to 6 pm EST/EDT. At that time, an extended bidding period goes into effect. If Bidder has not bid on a lot before 6 pm EST/ EDT, Bidder may not bid on that lot after 6 pm EST/EDT. Only those Bidders who have placed bids on a lot before 6 pm EST/EDT will be allowed to bid on that lot after 6 pm EST/EDT. If Bidder is the only Bidder on a lot at 6 pm EST/ EDT, that lot is awarded to Bidder. During the extended bidding period, a lot will remain open only to those who bid on that lot prior to 6 pm EST/EDT. All lots WITHOUT an opening bid at 6 pm EST/EDT will remain OPEN to ALL Bidders until 7 pm EST/EDT or until they receive their first bid. These lots will close immediately upon receipt of a bid or at 7 pm EST/EDT, whichever comes first. For all lots that are active after 7 pm EST/EDT, bidding will remain open until 30 minutes pass without a bid being placed on THAT lot (the “30 Minute Rule”). 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 EST/EDT. On a PER LOT BASIS, the 30 minute timer will reset each time a bid is placed after 7 pm EST/EDT. If Bidder is the high Bidder, raising Bidder’s maximum bid will NOT reset the timer. RR Auction reserves the right to close the Auction at any time at its sole discretion.

11.12 Bidding - Internet Live Auction:

Bidder may open, monitor, and/or raise bids at any time before the close of a lot through www.rrauction.com. RR Auction offers a callback service the day of the Auction, but Bidder is responsible for supplying a correct telephone number(s) where Bidder can be reached until the Auction closes. Bidder must request this service in writing. RR Auction will make reasonable efforts to ensure that Bidders who request a callback are contacted if outbid; however, RR Auction does not guarantee this service and it is merely a courtesy and not an enforceable right.

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. Winning bidders will be notified by RR Auction. RR Auction is not 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.

During live internet or 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 or bids (successively or otherwise) 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 above the reserve. The auctioneer will not specifically identify bids placed on behalf of the consignor to protect the reserve. All auctions for lots are with reserve unless specifically stated otherwise.

During live Auctions, internet bids can be placed in real time through one or more of the following Third Party services: www.liveauctioneers.com, www.invaluable. com and www.icollector.com. RR Auction is not 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. RR Auction treats any third-party site bids as floor or telephone bids. Floor bids and telephone bids are always considered first over third party sites bids, and floor bids are considered earlier than telephone bids. All RR Auction lots purchased through the third-party sites carry an additional Buyer’s Premium.

11.13 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 RR Auction’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, RR Auction 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 ”donot-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.

11.14 Rules of Construction: RR Auction 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 Conditions of Sale by these additional rules and shall be construed to give force and effect to the rules in their entirety.

Section 12

RR Auction’s Remedies

Failure of the Bidder to comply with any of these Conditions of Sale or the terms of the Registration Form is an event of material breach or default. In such event, RR Auction may, in addition to any other available remedies specifically including the right to hold the defaulting Bidder liable for the Purchase Price or to charge and collect from the defaulting Bidder’s credit or debit accounts as provided for elsewhere herein: (a) cancel the sale, retaining any payment made by the Bidder as damages (the Bidder understands and acknowledges that RR Auction will be substantially damaged should such default occur, and that damages under subpart (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 interest on the Purchase Price at the rate of one and one-half percent (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’s rights and remedies. Should RR Auction resell the property, the original defaulting Bidder 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 Bidder 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 Bidder 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 Bidder’s obligations to RR Auction, any Bidder’s property in RR Auction’s possession or to which title has not yet passed to Bidder. 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.

Section 13 Warranties

13.1 RR Auction does not provide any warranties to Bidders, whether expressed or implied, beyond those expressly provided 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 merchantability 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 Bidder acquires rights in copyright, trademark, or other intellectual property (including exhibition or reproduction rights) related to the item, or whether the property is subject to any limitations or other rights. RR Auction does not make any representation or warranty as to title.

13.2 All descriptions, photographs, illustrations, and terminology including but not limited to words describing condition (including any condition reports requested by Bidder, see also 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.

13.3 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.

13.4 All lots sold by RR Auction are accompanied by an Auction Certificate (“AC”). On any lot presented with an AC issued by RR Auction, the certification is only as to its attribution to the person or entity described or to the lot’s usage and only as explicitly stated therein (the “AC”), to the exclusion of any other warranties, express or implied, including but not limited to those pursuant to the Uniform Commercial Code. The AC inures only to the original Bidder (as shown in RR Auction’s records). Bidder may not transfer, assign, or otherwise convey the AC and such purported transfer, assignment, or conveyance shall be null and void.

Section 14

Firearms

RR Auction 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.

Section 15

Unauthorized Statements

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 Conditions of Sale, any term or condition set forth on a 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 Bidder and by an authorized officer of RR Auction by all parties, are statements of personal opinion only and are not binding on RR Auction, and under no circumstances shall be relied upon by Bidder as a statement, representation or warranty of RR Auction.

Section 16

Bidder’s Remedies

16.1 Except as stated expressly herein, Bidder’s sole and exclusive remedy related to or pertaining to items it bids upon, views, or purchases from RR Auc-

tion, and any claims by Bidder related to authenticity, ownership, condition, title or value, shall be against Consignor only.

16.2 This section sets forth the sole and exclusive remedies of Bidder as against RR Auction (inclusive of its affiliates, officers, managers, employees or agents), or in any way arising out of, related to, or in connection with these Conditions of Sale, , and is expressly in lieu of any other rights or remedies which might be available to Bidder by law. Time is of the essence with respect to these procedures.

16.3

Title to Items

The Bidder hereby accepts the benefit of the Consignor’s warranty of title and any other representations and warranties made by the Consignor for the Bidder’s benefit. In the event that Bidder demonstrates in writing, satisfactory to the sole discretion of RR Auction, that there was a breach of the Consignor’s warranty of title concerning a lot purchased by Bidder, RR Auction may make demand upon the Consignor to pay to Bidder 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 Bidder within thirty days after such demand (if any made), RR Auction may disclose the identity of the Consignor to Bidder and may assign to Bidder all or some of RR Auction’s rights against the Consignor with respect to such lot or property. Upon such disclosure and/or assignment, all responsibility and liability of RR Auction, if any, with respect to said lot or item shall automatically terminate related to or arising from these Conditions of Sale or such transaction operating as a complete waiver and general release by Bidder as to RR Auction and its agents, contractors, and affiliates, as to any and all claims concerning or related to the item, if any . RR Auction shall be entitled to retain the premiums and other amounts paid to RR Auction by Consignor only. The rights and remedies provided herein are for the original Bidder only and they may not be assigned or relied upon by any transferee or assignee under any circumstances.

16.4 Authenticity Challenge Process

(1) If Bidder wishes to dispute or challenge the Authenticity of the lot or item (including asserting that it is incorrect), Bidder must adhere to the following procedure: Within 30 days of the Auction Date, Bidder must present written evidence to RR Auction, that the lot is not authentic as determined by a known expert in the field (and one recognized by RR Auction within its discretion) and send the physical item or lot at issue to RR Auction along with all evidence relied upon by Bidder for contesting the Authenticity. (“Authenticity Challenge Process”) “Authenticity” shall mean a gross discrepancy in the between the description, genuiness, or attribution of the item as represented by RR Auction in the Catalog or at the auction, and the item. If RR Auction concurs that the lot is not Authentic as was represented (it is sole discretion), Bidder’s sole and exclusive remedy as against RR Auction (inclusive of its affiliates, agents, employees, and contractors) shall be a refund of the purchase price of the subject item paid by Bidder, with no other costs, liabilities or amounts recoverable by Bidder. If RR Auction does not agree with the assertion by Bidder, then the Parties shall follow the dispute resolution procedures of these Conditions of Sale. Strict adherence to the Authenticity Challenge Process is a condition of standing for Bidder to initiate suit or claim.

(2) So long as Bidder has complied with the Authenticity Challenge Process, any claim, suit or action, by Bidder concerning an AC or Certification of Authenticity, or related to the authenticity of the item must, without any exception, be brought within one (1) year of Auction Date and is subject to the other limitations and conditions stated in the Conditions of Sale.

16.5 Other Issues. Any dispute or claim by Bidder against RR Auction (or its affiliates, directors, employees, officers, agents, or contractors)) other than Authenticity, concerning any item or lot bid upon, or purchased, including value, title, condition, bidding process, or description must be asserted (if at all) in the following manner:

(1) If the description of any lot in the Catalog is materially or grossly incorrect (e.g., gross cataloging error), or there is any other gross material issue pertaining to the item or lot, the item or lot may be returned if returned within five (5) calendar days of receipt, and received by RR Auction no later than twenty-one (21) calendar days after the Auction Date with explanation in writing.. If there is any discrepancy between the description in the Catalog and a certificate of auction, then the description in the certificate of auction (“Lot Challenge Process”). This paragraph shall constitute Bidder’s sole right with respect to the return of items, and no refunds shall be given for any items not returned to and received by RR Auction within the period of time stated herein or not materially or grossly in deviation from the description. Such a refund is subject to RR Auction’s sole discretionary review, and any request for refund must be made concurrently with returning the physical item or lot to RR Auction. Any item not returned within said frame will constitute acceptance of the item and a waiver and release of

any and all claims by Bidder pertaining to the item other than with respect to authenticity; and

(2) Provided that the Bidder has engaged in the Lot Challenge Process, any claim concerning such must be brought no later than one (1) year of the Auction Date for the item or lot at issue and is subject to the other limitations and conditions stated in the Conditions of Sale.

NO RETURN OR REFUND OF ANY AUCTION LOT WILL BE CONSIDERED OR PROVIDED EXCEPT AS PROVIDED IN THESE CONDITIONS OF SALE AND BIDDERS OR AS MAY BE REQUIRED BY LAW. FAILURE TO COMPLY WITH SUCH SHALL BE A COMPLETE DEFENSE TO ANY CLAIMS BY BIDDER RELATED TO THE CONDITIONS OF SALE, ANY AUCTION OR BID.

16.6 LIMITATION OF LIABILITY. For any and all claims by Bidder arising out of or related to this Agreement, Bidder’s viewing, bid, or purchase of items, or any agreement between the Parties, or otherwise, Bidder agrees that to the fullest extent such can be limited under the law, Bidder shall have no right to recover and hereby waives any and all rights to recover from against RR Auction or its affiliates, directors, employees, officers, agents, or contractors, consequential or indirect damages, lost profits damages, punitive, exemplary, statutory (or multiplier damages), physical or emotional distress damages, general or special damages of any kind (beyond amounts actually paid by Bidder for item(s) at issue), and in the event of recovery of any damages whatsoever, such shall be limited by the amounts actually paid by Bidder to RR Auction for the item(s) at issue in such claim, or if no money was paid to RR Auction by Bidder for items at issue, or there items are at issue, the amount of $150.00.

Section 17

RR Auction’s Additional Services

For Bidders who do not remove purchased property from RR Auction’s premises, RR Auction, in its sole discretion and solely as a service and accommodation to Bidders, may arrange to have purchased lots packed, insured and forwarded at the sole request, expense, and risk of Bidder. 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, RR Auction will include an administration charge.

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.

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

Section 20

Governing Law and Enforcement

20.1 The Parties agree that all agreements between the Parties including but not limited to these Conditions of Sale are entered into in Boston, Massachusetts, 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.

20.2 The Parties agree that these Conditions of Sale, any other related agreement(s), along with all claims between the Parties, including those arising out of or related to such are governed by the laws of the Commonwealth of Mas-

sachusetts, without regard for its conflict of laws principles. The Parties agree that any dispute between the Parties, including but not limited to those related to or arising out of these Conditions of Sale, or related to or arising out of any other related agreement(s) shall be submitted to confidential binding arbitration (the ”Arbitration”) before a single Arbitrator of the American Arbitration Association (the “AAA”) The Parties agree that the Arbitration shall be conducted pursuant to the commercial rules of the AAA in Boston, Massachusetts, unless the Consumer Arbitration Rules apply, in which case, such rules and venue will govern. In the event that the Parties cannot agree on the selection of the Arbitrator, then the Arbitrator shall be selected by the AAA. The prevailing Party in the Arbitration shall also recover all of its related fees and costs, whether before or after the formal institution of the Arbitration, including but not limited to its reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs, if RR Auction prevails, such recovery, in addition to all remedies available at agreement or law, shall include the Buyer’s Premium as defined in these Conditions of Sale. Federal arbitration law, including the Federal Arbitration Act apply to this agreement to arbitrate and its related provisions. The arbitration and all related proceedings shall be held strictly confidential and all documents and discovery shall be held confidential and not used, published or disclosed publically or to anyone outside the Parties or expert consultants or counsel who shall agree to hold such confidential.

20.3 The Parties consent to the Commonwealth of Massachusetts as exclusive jurisdiction and venue for all claims between the Parties except as provided specifically herein and may seek confirmation of the decision in the Arbitration pursuant to the Federal Arbitration Act in any Court of competent jurisdiction, including the courts of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts or the United States District Court for the District of Massachusetts. To the extent such is necessary under the law, RR Auction may enforce the Arbitration award against Bidder and any related Party in any court of competent jurisdiction. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed as RR Auction consenting to jurisdiction or venue in any location outside of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts.

THE PARTIES MAY NOT BRING CLAIMS AGAINST EACH OTHER AS A CLASS OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY CLAIMED CLASS, OR IN A REPRESENTATIVE ACTION UNLESS OTHERWISE AGREED. UNLESS OTHERWISE AGREED, THE CLAIMS AGAINST EACH OF THE OTHER CANNOT BE CONSOLIDATED OR JOINED WITH MORE THAN ONE ADDITIONAL PERSON OR ENTITIES’ CLAIMS. NO INJUNCTIVE OR DECLARATORY RELIEF SOUGHT BY BIDDER IF ANY, CAN AFFECT OR BE ORDERED TO AFFECT ANY OTHER BIDDERS OR PERSONS.

20.4 Except as provided specifically in these Conditions of Sale in Bidder’s Remedies against RR Auction (along with its affiliates, directors, agents, officers, employees, and contractors) for any dispute, claim, cause of action related to or arising out of these Conditions of Sale or any other related agreement(s), brought by Bidder must be brought within the earlier of the Auction Date as it pertains to the item(s) at issue or no later than one (1) year of the acts, omissions or circumstances occurred giving rise to the alleged claim, without exception. This provision is intended as a full, complete and absolute bar to and release of any claims by Bidder initiated after one (1) year of such acts, omissions or circumstances. The Parties agree further that these waiver provisions are intended to be binding in the event of any dispute, specifically including but not limited to third party claims and cross-actions brought by Bidder. These provisions are consideration for the execution of these Conditions of Sale.

20.5 To the fullest extent under applicable law and except as specifically stated herein Bidder hereby holds harmless, releases and discharges RR Auction and its agents, officer’s directors, affiliates, successors, and assigns from any and all claims, liabilities, obligations, promises, agreements, damages, causes of action, suits, demands, losses, debts, and expenses of any nature whatsoever, known or unknown, suspected or unsuspected existing prior to these Conditions of Sale.

In the event that Bidder provides false information in connection with registering for bidding, fails to correct or update information or breaches the Conditions of Sale by failing to pay the purchase price when due after becoming the winning bidder, as liquidated damages associated with such breaches, R&R may obtain from Bidder the greater of (1) 150% the reserve of the item (if any); (2) the amount bidder bid; or (3), the full amount that bidder would have otherwise paid. Bidder will also be liable for an additional 20% of such amount to account for additional administrative costs, shipping, additional advertising, and other dam-

ages and liabilities fees that are difficult to calculate on an item-by-item basis.

20.8 Indemnity. Bidder agrees to defend, indemnify, hold harmless RR Auction (along with its officers, directors, agents, contractors, and affiliates) from and against any and all claims, costs, fees, damages, and liabilities arising out of or related to these Conditions of Sale, view of items, or lots, bidding, or participation in any auction by RR Auction, and/or or in any way connected to any item you viewed, bid upon or purchased through RR Auction.

Section 21: State-by-State Law Issues

This Auction is being conducted in and the sale shall take place in the State of Massachusetts. Notwithstanding, the foregoing, should these terms and conditions violate the law of any State should that state’s law be found to govern, or any provision herein determined to be invalid, the clause itself and the remainder of the Agreement shall be valid to the fullest extent allowed. Also, to the extent other states law apply to any transaction arising out of the Agreement (without admitting such), RR Auction states:

For Residents of California:

SALE OF AUTOGRAPHED COLLECTIBLES: AS REQUIRED BY LAW, A DEALER WHO SELLS TO A CONSUMER ANY COLLECTIBLE DESCRIBED AS BEING AUTOGRAPHED MUST PROVIDE A WRITTEN EXPRESS WARRANTY AT THE TIME OF SALE. THIS DEALER MAY BE SURETY BONDED OR OTHERWISE INSURED TO ENSURE THE AUTHENTICITY OF ANY AUTOGRAPHED COLLECTIBLE SOLD BY THIS DEALER.

A written express warranty is provided with each autographed collectible, as required by law. This dealer may be surety bonded or otherwise insured to ensure the authenticity of any autographed collectible sold by this dealer.

Section 22

Glossary of Condition terms

Information provided to prospective Bidders with respect of any lot, including any pre-sale estimate, whether written or oral, and information in any catalogue, condition or other report, commentary or valuation, is not a representation of fact but rather a statement of opinion held by RR Auction.

Use of the following terms constitutes an opinion as follows:

VERY FINE describes an item believed to be in virtually flawless condition, and is used sparingly for items of exceptionally attractive appearance.

FINE is the most common statement of condition, and applies to most items that we offer. It describes items that we believe to show expected handling wear, generally acceptable random flaws (such as light creases, small bends, etc.), and an overall appearance that is pleasing to the majority of collectors.

VERY GOOD describes an item that we believe exhibits more moderate flaws (such as toning, light staining, professional reinforcements or repairs, etc.). Most collectors would be comfortable with items in very good condition, and this would be the expected condition for many formats (early presidential documents, for example).

GOOD describes an item which we believe to have obvious visible flaws, including heavy wear, missing portions, or repairs that affect appearance; generally items in this condition are offered only if an item is otherwise believed to be exceedingly rare or important.

Bidder may call and request further details and information about RR Auction’s opinions concerning any item via phone or email which shall provided in RR Auction’s discretion.

Certificate of Auction, Certificate of Authenticity and Goods Acquired:

Bidder warrants that Bidder (and its agents, assigns, successors, and affiliates) shall not purposely deface, destroy, dismember, cut-up into parts the item or Lot purchased at auction from RR Auction and in the event such shall occur whether purposefully or accidently, Bidder (and its agents, assigns, successors, and affiliates) shall refrain from advertising, promoting, or marketing the item as having been purchased from RR Auction and shall in no event display, expressly claim, or imply that the item was certified or auctioned in such state by RR Auction. As liquidated damages for such breach, Bidder agrees to be liable to RR Auction for the greater of the amount of three (3) times the hammer price of the item along with all other fees and costs as otherwise provided in this Terms of Sale.

For 50 years, relationships have been the backbone of RR Auction. We have made it a priority to keep our consignors informed and involved, encouraging them to share their voices, to instill their knowledge, and to forge a partnership based on our shared passion for history. With a mutual desire to achieve greatness, these relationships are at the heart of our success.
