Tony Fomison is well-represented in this sale with two important paintings and a superb pencil drawing. These three works go a long way towards highlighting Fomison 's breadth and skill as a draughtsman and artist of the highest order. Sancho Panza and Don Quixote de la Mancha (lot 56), complete with artist's original frame and trademark thick hessian , is a mesmerising painting demonstrating the artist's profound skill and subtlety with colour. The Seer (lot 61) , is a softer, darker painting - nothing shor'. of a 'classic ' Fomison; whilst The Flutesman (lot 41) is a drawing of, almost, impossibly fine execution.

Recent auctions have witnessed record prices set for a raft of contemporary artists including Andrew Macleod , Judy Millar, Brett Graham , Jacqueline Fraser, Jude Rae and many others. Peter Stichbury is an artist whose work has been seen in several publ ic exhibitions in recent times including Measure of Strangeness at Artspace , and more recently, Small World, Big Town at Wel lington's City Gallery. His eerily slick and hyperreal paintings engage with the world of fashion , modelling and portrait photography whilst simultaneously neither celebrating nor critiquing the percieved superficiality of each .

Demand peaked for balloon backs in the nineteen-sixties when individua l chairs in walnut fetched around the $1,500 mark. Today, a tenth of that might be considered a fair price at auction for the same chair. IN FOCUS

Going, Going, Gone .... The September sale might be best described as the 'nearly' sale ... Several works 'nearly' made reserve, New Zealand 'nearly' had a government, and the art department at Webb's 'nearly' had a melt down, before getting the total up to a wholly respectable final tally of $1 ,350,000. The total on the night was however, less than impressive , with many works falling shy of the reserve as a strange and collective aversion to hand-raising seemed to overcome all of those in attendance. However, one needn't have worried as norma l service resumed the fol lowing morn ing in the frenzied aftermath of post-sale negotiations wh ich seem to be becoming increasingly commonplace. There was some good buying and similarly some very good results for vendors. However, there seems little doubt that the market has steadied from its formerly heady heights and that now, for those buyers with the confidence and conviction , quality works can be purchased at reasonable levels. Bi ll Hammond's semina l Watching for Buller - Costume Design, 1994 (i llustration A), fell someway short of its estimate of $100, 000 - $ 150, 000 on sale night, but sold in the proceeding days for its lower estimate and reserve of $100,000. Ralph Hotere's resplendent Test Piece: Auckland Airport Mural: Grey/Orange, 1977 (illustration D), continued the 'nearly' tradition falling just shy of its estimate

of $95,000 - $125,000, before selling the very next day for $90,000. Alfred Sharpe's View of the Rock of Maketu, near Drury, 1880 (illustration E), was seen by the staff at Webb's as one of the freshest

and highest quality works by Alfred Sharpe ever offered to the market. However, bidding stalled below its estimate of $120,000 - $160,000 on auction night and a sale was negotiated the following day for $95,000. Col in McCahon's Muriwai No. 7, 1969 (i llustration B), was another 'nearly' painting. It sold subject to vendor approval on sale night to an absentee phone bidder, and was snapped up in a negotiated sa le the following morni ng for $67,500 - just shy of its lower estimate of $70,000. The important Frances Hodgkins oil, Three Roses (i llustration F), made $230,000 against an estimate of $250,000 - $350,000. There were several strong sales under the hammer including Russell Clark's Old Keta and Friend

In the years 1964 - 1965 Colin McCahon, inspired by William Hodges' paintings on loan to the Auckland Art Gallery and most especially by the sublime Waterfall

at Dusky Bay, New Zealand (1775), painted numerous Waterfall paintings. The artist would later remark: "The waterfalls started flowing 1n 1964 and there were

hundreds of them between 1964 and 1965". A trip to the McCahon database

350 X42:

however, suggests less than one hundred extant Waterfall paintings. This

$45,000

example, with its striking reduction of form to a fundamentally symbolic level, is a particularly successful and mature one. In many ways Waterfall serves to highlight much of the creative elation McCahon felt at the time: "I look back with joy on taking a brush of white paint and curving through the darkness with a line of white". The graceful arc of Waterfall is here offset by both the exposed triangle in the top right hand comer of the painting and the gritty col 1cision of sand and PVA. In earlier works such as The Virgin and Child Compared (1948), McCahon had investigated the metaphoric and spiritual associations of water, and the graceful arcs of the Waterfall series cut a swathe through the dark background of rock face and vegetation evoking McCahon's lifelong investigations into spirituality and life and death.

Bill Sutton Land, Sea, Sky Synthesis oil on board signed and dated '64 3045 x 1350mm

$55,000 - $75,000

William (Bill) Sutton is best known today for his early regionalist landscapes of Canterbury such as Dry September, 1949. He was an artist who deliberately restricted himself to a relatively narrow range of subject-matter in which the characteristic dry landforms of Canterbury recur again and again. Trained in a conservative, almost academic fashion, Sutton had a technique grounded in careful preparation and construction of his compositions. Little was left to chance or accident - the very opposite of the intuitive approach favoured by his colleague Rudolph Gopas. Inevitably by the mid-1960s Sutton was seen by his students at the Canterbury School of Art, where he taught, as old-fashioned and out of touch . It was about this period that he became more experimental and attempted to reconcile his early realist works with more contemporary ideas.

Land, Sea, Sky Synthesis of 1964 Is important partly because it lies near the start of this process of reinvention that led on to the Landscape Elements and

Threshold series of the late 1960s and 1970s. In this work Sutton appears to have looked at the example of Colin McCahon who in the early 1950s had constructed semi-abstract Canterbury landscapes that culminated in the large work On Building Bridges of 1952. In these works McCahon introduced some Cubist elements that also appear in the present example of Sutton's painting. While Sutton was initially very sceptical about McCahon he came to see him as something of a rival and possibly a threat to his reputation as a landscape artist. In Land, Sea, Sky Synthesis Sutton dispenses with his realist spatial layout and introduces a number of fragmentary views of bits of sea, land and sky In a semi-abstract manner. The viewpoint is no longer at eye level but seems to be from above, as if seen from the air. Possibly the increasing availability of air travel at this period may have widened his scope for recording the landforms he had previously studied while travelling by motorbike. Sutton uses faceted planes running at angles to articulate the painting and keep some emphasis on the surface. By choosing a vertical format he encourages our eyes to traverse the painting from bottom to top rather than to look into an atmospheric space. All the forms of the painting appear relatively even In importance so that there is an overall feel to the composition that is new in Sutton's art. He has also made the brushwork broad and textural so that the whole surface is lively and animated. Despite the innovations the painting retains Sutton's hallmark features - the ochre foothills of Canterbury with shadows animating their surfaces beneath a grey blue sky suggestive of the nor-wester wind so characteristic of the region. The added feature of the sea at the lower margin is a bonus and completes his synthesis of a well-loved landscape.

To call Michael Smither's paintings of the 1960s illustrations, as has been done in a

recent review, is surely not the full story. Paintings like Sarah with Flowers, 1967, may

intensity and authenticity that much avant-garde practice lacks. What helps to make these pa1nt1ngs appear vivid and memorable is their clarity of vision and grounding in the artist's own expenence. By painting his then three year old daughter Sarah with flowers Smither is recording an actual event that he has seen and experienced rather than illustrating a story. He sees his subject as a pictorial fact without need of other justification This was somewhat unusual because it was a time when tired landscape compositions were displayed in art society shows and at the Kelliher art award. Smither was one of the first New Zealand painters to look at his friends and family for subject-matter, making in the process an invaluable record of a period and its lifestyle. The personal dimension distinguishes his figure compositions from the Pop Art imagery of Killeen and Ian Scott of the same period. Whereas they relied on photographs and popular imagery from magazines, Smither looked to his immediate environment and drew from first-hand knowledge. This gives what has been called a 'quirky' individuality to the works, though not one that is na'i've or uninfonmed. Smither had studied at the Elam School of Art and knew relevant works of the English 'Kitchen Sink School' of painters, one of whom, John Bratby was represented in the Auckland Art Gallery collection. He also refers to his interest in Stanley Spencer, widely regarded as one of Britain's greatest 2Q'h century painters. Like Spencer, Smither has a natural ability to paint everyday people and surroundings with an astonishingly clear, sharp focus. In Sarah with Flowers the pattern of her dress and the flowers in the vase are examples of this capability. There is a simplification of fonms, as in the arms of Sarah that appear anatomically impossible from a naturalistic viewpoint. But this adds rather than detracts from the effect of the figure who engages our attention by her direct gaze and outstretched hand, with flower held up in a way used for similar intention by Baroque realists like Caravaggio. His use of colour in the painting is noteworthy especially in the contrast between the cool palette of Sarah's dress and the background interior and the bright warm accents in the flowers. The domestic scenes of Smither often have, as in this example, a disturbing somewhat edgy quality as if some minor calamity has happened or is about to happen. By contrast the order and calm of Glenda Randerson's domestic interiors of the same period seem remote from Smither's unidealized record of childhood and suburban life. He undenmines the fantasy world of the women's magazines by showing the hyper-active life of young children, their constant quest for attention, and the amusement, mayhem and disorder they create. His often awkward relationships between figures and the spaces they inhabit and the choice of viewpoint help to reinforce the energy and instability of the real domestic world he knows. Sarah with Flowers typifies this enonmously creative and productive period of Michael Smither's career.

or South on State Highway 1 between Timaru and Oamaru and, it would seem, there is little to distinguish the two bodies of work In McCahon's oeuvre. The McCahon database suggests eight known examples exist. Although South Canterbury eschews the steeply descending curve which

$85,000 - $100,000

became the representative emblem of the North Otago series, it maintains the tripartite horizontal demarcation of hills, plains and sky. The latter features that unforgettable, lumionous, all-over glow which is as much the light of the spirit as it is of the sky. Like other works from this small series, such as the similarly proportioned

South Canterbury before a Storm (1968), South Canterbury witnesses a reduction of the landscape to a single irreducible, geological core stripped of all redundant or superfuos detail. Through an increasing interest in the physical features of the earth and the forces which shape it, McCahon encountered the work of scientist and geomorphologist, Charles Cotton. McCahon would later remark In correspondence to Ron O'Reilly: "I was interested in Cotton through having lived in North Otago for two years and having already started my love affair with the place. Cotton told me about it. Nobody told me about Cotton, I just found him on a bookshelf". There exists in the North Otago and South Canterbury works a chilling calmness, a distilled visual essence, which, despite its apparent and alarming starkness, should never be mistaken as simplicity. There is an allover uniformity to the paint in South Canterbury, suggestive of a wholeness missing in many of the other paintings of the North Otago region which often feature a scrubbier application of paint. The PVA feels almost caked on; these are landscapes suggested rather than depicted, they are landscapes of the mind, heart and soul. South Canterbury is, after all, the land of McCahon's birth place.

friends like the art dealer Peter Mcleavey. In the process he adapted the land forms to

$110,000 - $150,000

his own purposes, extracting from them a symbolic language with which to express his

sureness of execution. The whale-like shape of Oaia Island is seen at the left in a simplified silhouette against the sky while in the foreground the tall column of Moturoa Island helps frame the view and give a sense of scale. The view from the cliffs above Muriwa1 Beach was very familiar to McCahon who often walked there alone or with

ongoing concerns about conseNation of the environment and the spiritual well-being of its human inhabitants. The painting belongs to his series of works called Necessary Protection. The title 1s broad enough to allow for a number of related meanings to enter our interpretation of the series. On one level there is the environmental meaning, the need to protect the islands shown in the painting from pollution allowing the gannet colonies based there to breed and nurture their young. McCahon wrote in 1971: 'In the early summer the young are taught how to fty and swim and gather their own food. This goes on 1n spite of our intrusions, the cliff-top parties, the broken bottles, the paper and plastic everywhere.' In this painting however we see only the forces of nature at work with the sea and sky clean and bright, untouched by pollution and the ravages wrought by man. The whalelike Oaia Island seems to swim in its element with no intrusions from the nearby city and its inhabitants. Keeping the environment clean is essential to the preseNation of life. On another level the artist was referring to our need for protection and guidance spiritually as well as materially. In his catalogue notes for the show Necessary Protection of 1971 he wrote of the paintings: 'They have to do with the days and nights in the wilderness and our constant need for help and protection.' In this example the light in the sky that dispels the dark clouds hovering ovemead is a metaphor for divine light and spiritual illumination.

By exaggerating the whale-like aspect of Oaia lslar,d McCahon could

encourage biblical associations such as references to Jonah and the whale where it is an instrument for his salvation. In creating a painting such as this McCahon introduced a different dimension into New Zealand landscape. While other painters such as Don Binney also included conseNationist meanings in their works, McCahon distilled the essence of the landscape 1n a way that recalls the approach of traditional Chinese painters rather than their Western counterparts. The achievement of classical Chinese landscapists was 'to fuse the spiritual and the material'. For example, the painter Kuo Hsi encouraged artists to study landscapes with great diligence by walking through them and gathering deep impressions before painting 'with utter freedom and courage'. The result from this approach is a personal response on a deeper and more contemplative level than that of the plein-a1r sketch. The present painting Muriwai, Necessary Protection and Oa,a Island has that breadth, boldness and immediacy achieved through long hours of personal contemplation of nature prior to the rapid execution of the work itself. The dashes and strokes of paint have the range and diversity we associate with Oriental calligraphy and have a comparable certainty in their combination of form and meaning.

the art of Sydney Lough Thompson (1877-1973) . The brilliant lilac-blue flowers of the wisteria in full bloom, spread across a pergola in a walled

garden, allow his colour sense full sway and set the key for this Joyous

$40,000 - $50,000

celebration of warmth and light. Although based in Brittany at the fishing village of Concarneau during the years 1916-18, Thompson travelled to the South of France in the springtime in search of the strong light and intense colour that had drawn Monet, Cezanne, Gauguin and Matisse there before him. This is a plein-air sketch painted spontaneously from the motif in a concentrated burst of energy. Thompson is well known for his studies of the related theme of almond trees in blossom, made in the same region, that he once said had to 'be painted in one go' if they were to succeed. Like Monet before him, Thompson used a multiplicity of small touches of paint to create an effect of shimmering light through colour juxtaposition and layering. Colour is everywhere 1n this jewellike sketch where there are no dark shadows or lines to be seen. The setting appears to be an old-world garden with masonry piers and walls flooded with a strong warm light. In such gardens wisteria - a popular climbing shrub of Japanese and Chinese origin - was prized for its brilliant blooms and fragrance. The painting has the charm of depicting an idyllic world, part myth, part reality that made the Mediterranean area then as now irresistible and an antidote to the harsh realities of the Great War devastating France at the time. The painting shows Thompson at his most fiuent, painterly and abstract with a perfect match between artist and subject. He uses bold brushstrokes varied in size and direction to structure the work where the forms are largely dissolved in light and heat. Garden settings with pergolas, flowers in bloom and bright sunshine were a familiar theme in French Impressionist art and one that Thompson greatly liked. As art historian Julie King has obseNed: 'He remained committed to a nostalgic belief in a pre-modern world which idealized the past and nature'. Today his art provides a perfect form of escapism into a world of peace, beauty and old-time painterly virtuosity.

Milan Mrkusich

In the sixties Milan Mrkusich's Emblem paintings began to assume a more

Emblem XV oil on jute signed and dated '67; title inscribed, signed and dated verso 858 x 865mm

direct focus on the formal geometric elements of the line, square and circle. Initially these abstract emblems of mathematics were superimposed onto a coloured field with only slight structural purpose. Increasingly though, these mathematical motifs became more determinate structural forms, as is the case with Emblem XV.

$50,000 - $60,000 The increasing geometric focus of the Emblem paintings brought about a noticeable change from Mrkusich's earlier paintings, one Michael Dunn and Petar Vuletic described 1n temns of being, "The change from an asymmetrical format to a symmetrical one". What they had observed was a gradual process in which the paintings progressively took on a more regularised structure, ending up with paintings in which the geometrical elements determined a symmetrical outcome for the structure of the composition. In Emblem XV for instance, which comes toward the end of the Emblem paintings, the distinct geometric structures of the circle, square and rectangle and their centred placement do detemnine both the horizontal and vertical symmetry of the composition as a whole. The stability that results from such symmetry of structure enables the eye to perceptually expand the structural and coloured qualities of the painting more easily. When considered structurally, earth coloured and light purple bands frame the central circles in Emblem XV. Yet the geometric fomns fuse together in a way that creates a sense of transparency, as if the geometric forms were superimposed, each one laid over the others. For instance, the light purple hue appears to reveal the modulation and tone of the earth colour beneath, and similarly the circle reveals the colour of the underlying green square. This leads to the perception that rather than bands of colour surrounding the centralised squared circle, it is a light purple square superimposed on a larger earth coloured square that is seen. Mrkusich achieves this through his refined colour practice; a blending of colour that is characteristically subtle and precise. He generates a sense of continuity of colour and form across the field with his method - a continuity that is reinforced further by the constant infiection of the Jute surface - maintaining a sense of harmony and integration between the separate mathematical emblems and colours.

painting. Whether the work is in fact representative is in itself a matter of

$90,000 - $120,000

interpretation, it could well be just a series of patterns and shapes painted in an abstract sequence. Repeating patterns feature in many of Smither's works. Yellow-eyed mullet are topped and tailed in a fish-tray in a work painted in 1993, mounds of rocks rise up to meet Mount Taranaki in paintings from the late 1960s and wispy clouds entwined like a line of dancers were the subject of explorations in the early 1990s. Smither's work pays particular attention to the delightful sequences that can be found in nature. Wave Pool could at once be a coral reef seen from the window of a plane, the play of sunlight on waves, a pool of squirming lavae, the shimmering notes of hot air rising from tar or the ripples in sand carved by the wind. Yet if we are to take the artist's word and see this painting as exactly what he tells us it Is, the clouds quite easily shrink down into bubbles of sea froth, the ridged sand dunes into water and ripples. There is a nod to the work of David Hockney in this painting.

In the

early 1970s Hockney was painting his well-known images of swimmers underwater, noting the effects of the moving and shimmering water as it distorted and fragmented his subject's submerged body. Though there is no human subject in Smither's painting, the play of light and shadow In the shallow depths of water echo the veined surface of Hockney's pools and similarly signal motion and tidal fiux.

scones spread with the characteristic golden-yellow colour of this most basic of foods. How very domestic you might think. Yet Michael Smither is renowned for paintings that weave a sense of wonder into the everyday. His images of domestic disharmony are famous in New Zealand art - just think of Boys Fighting over a Pink Plastic Gun, 1978. Yet Smither also finds tender moments 1n elemental and often overlooked events - sleepy children sucking their fingers before empty porridge bowls in

Children at Breakfast Ttme, 1969- 70 or the simple delight of kids discovering fire in Blowing out Matches, 1969. The beauty of these paintings is that they celebrate and treasure a raw, unromantic view of family life. It is in the action of recording these simple delights in lustrous oils that we start to see them as something other than domestic, in fact as something quite marvellous. Similarly in this painting of a pound of butter Smither uses his brush to transform this most fundamental of grocery goods into something more exceptional. Is this a mere block of butter, or an image of the fat of the land ringed with ridges that resemble mountains? Perhaps this is a fanciful interpretation, but then Smither's paintings do fire the imagination. His still life's are never static Verso: The Hickey Girls

rather they seem to be charged, somehow animated by the scrupulous attention paid to them by the painter. Like Spent Balloon, 1979 and Yellow

Rubber Gloves, 1977 the object is no longer droll and homely but fascinating, even creepy. So why paint such plain objects? Smither has written: 'I find at times that my eye 1s captured by a seemingly mundane obJect. Some spirit demands that I pay it particular attention ... (it) is a response to my "mindless" eye'.

Clearly Smither's eye sees not the literal but the figurative thereby

transforming the mundane in life, into the magical in paint.

Waiwera's thermal springs were as popular in the pre-European Maori world as they are today, but it was in the 1860s that the pioneer tourist entrepreneur Robert Graham developed a grand hotel and bath-house on the site. As with the great European spas on which it was modeled, Waiwera Hotel soon attracted an international clientele that exploited steam travel to enjoy what we recognize as the beginnings of modern tounsm. And the consumption was conspicuous, with Auckland's newspapers avidly reporting the names of the prominent foreign guests who mingled with the leisured colonial elite. Sharpe chose a high vantage point on the bluff overlooking the spa and its recently laid out gardens, characteristically framing the view with the mutilated remnants of native bush. Sharpe would have taken the tourist steamer from Auckland, climbing the hill to claim what would become an iconic view at the hands of photographers such as Alfred Burton. Other painters also followed, including the talented amateur John Kinder whose 1877 stay at Waiwera resulted in a charming group of watercolours in which he depicts guests relaxing on the verandah and in the grounds of the hotel. A handwritten label miraculously survives with the painting, revealing that Sharpe's asking price was ten guineas. This was a sizeable amount for the period, comparable to prices asked by the leading Auckland watercolourist. J. C. Hoyte, and the very existence of such a work heightens the mystery surrounding the early part of Sharpe's career. For while Waiwera is the earliest dated painting we know by Sharpe, it confirms that his distinctive style had developed during the 1860s. Note in particular the sophisticated washes he uses to provide depth of colour, in passages that range from the cool blue-greens of the foreground shadows on the left, to the warm oranges and ochres of the sunlit right-hand side. Golden evenings were to become Sharpe's leitmotif. The hotel has long gone but the place continues to exert an artistic mystique. In Paula Morris's recent novel, Hibiscus Coast, the Goldie-forging heroine takes refuge in a Waiwera bach, while the bluff road above plays its own dramatic role. In real life, the current incarnation of the famous hot pools has another connection with Goldie forgery, regularly hosting the picturesque Carl Sim - New Zealand's only convicted art forger. To my knowledge, however, Carl has yet to produce a view of Waiwera.

This small exquisite Tonda (1983) is one of a series of three executed by Geoff Thomley within the period of the larger Tondos; Constructions,

Tonda C is a fine example of Allan Smith's seminal discussion of Thomley's work, where he speaks of "separateness held together under pressure .. like carefully cut slabs tightly clamped."

A Slab Sided Bottle Vase by Takeichi Kawai (1908 -1989)

156 CATALOGUE INFORMATION

A GUIDE FOR BUYERS Webb's have set out the following information for the benefit of first time buyers and those who are unfamiliar with auction procedures. Important note: Please refer to full conditions of sale for buyers printed in the reverse of this catalogue and displayed in the saleroom. Registration All intending buyers must complete a bidding form available from the reception desk Buying at Auction

eilllressie

tliiooginal

1. Floor Bidders Ensure that you have registered and obtained a buyer number before bidding on the lot or lots you have chosen Be aware that a buyer's premiu'Tl of 12.5%+GST on the premium, a total of 14.06%, is payable by all buyers in addition to the hammer price. At some sales the amount of the buyers' premium may be more or less than 10%. Please make sure that you are aware of the amount of the buyer's premium. Make your bids clear, preferably by holding up your buyer number card. If you make a mistake e.g. the auctioneer takes a bid from you at a higher level than you had intended, or you realise that you had bid on the wrong lot, call out to the auctioneer immediately so that the bidding can be adjusted. Waiting until after the hammer falls is too late. If your bid is the highest and the lot is knocked down to you then you have entered a binding obligation to pay for that lot.

relevant 2. Sales Subject to Vendor's Consent Where your bid is the highest, but still below the reserve, the Auctioneer may declare you to be the "buyer subject to Vendor's consent". This means that your bid is held as binding and will be communicated to the Vendor at the earliest opportunity. If the vendor accepts then there is a contractual obligation for you to pay for the lot. If the vendor does not accept, you are released from any obligation, however you will have first right to negotiate with the vendor through Webb's until an agreement is reached, and Webb's will not present other offers to the vendor until your negotiations are ended.

3. Absentee Bids Webb's will endeavour to ensure that your bidding instructions are executed, but accept no responsibility or liability for failure to do so. Lots will be bought as favourably as is allowed by bidding in the sale room and any reserve imposed by the vendor. Please note that Webb's cannot guarantee that another bidder will not be successful at your limit if, in the course of competitive bidding, someone else bids your limit first. Absentee bids are accepted by written instruction which can be sent by fax (e-mailed absentee bids are not accepted) up to I hour before the commencement of the sale.

Absentee bids will be executed on the following basis: If your bid limit is equal to or above a reserve, the Auctioneer may open the bidding at reserve on your behalf and will bid thereafter only in response to competition for the lot. If your bid limit is below a reserve, the Auctioneer may open the bidding at your limit and if there are no further bids in the room may sell to you "subject to vendor's consent". In the absence of a reserve the Auctioneer may exercise your bid in advance of any opening bid or may open the bidding on your behalf at the Auctioneers estimate, at the Auctioneer's sole discretion.

Telephone Bids The same conditions as above apply to telephone bidders. Webb's will telephone the number you have given several minutes before the lot you have request comes up for sale. If your phone is engaged or we are unable to make contact the auction will proceed without your bidding. Our staff will ask you to hold when we have made contact. They will then tell you that your lot is about to come up. The bids will be relayed to you and you can enter the bidding at any time by making your call. Please note that the bidding at man~· auctions can be fast and furious. The auctioneer will not favour a phone bidder over and above buyers who are attending the auction by giving them more time to bid. You will need to establish your limit and make sure that you bid clearly and promptly. Telephone bids are only accepted for catalogued sales and on items with estimates over $500. Pre-Sale Estimates Estimates printed in the catalogue or given verbally are intended as a guide only and can be subject to revision nearer to the time of a sale. Webb's staff are available during pre-sale viewing times and by appointment to assist prospective bidders with estimates and any aspect of the auction procedure. Condition Reports Webb's staff will provide condition reports for out of Auckland buyers. However, please note that no 6 in the Conditions of Sale for Buyers will still apply despite the obtaining of a condition report. Payment Payment for all items purchased is due on the day of sale immediately following completion of the sale. If full payment cannot be made on the day of sale a deposit of 10% of the total sum due must be made on the day of sale and the balance must be paid within 5 working days. Payment is by cash, bank cheque or Eftpos. Cheques will be accepted but must be cleared before delivery of goods will be given. Credit cards are not accepted. Packing and Freight Webb's do not pack goods in house. However, we will arrange for your items to be packed and shipped by a professional agent All costs associated with packing and freight are payable by the purchaser. Insurance In Transit Webb's insurance does not cover any pieces while in transit. Insurance must be organised by the purchaser. If insurance is required it can be purchased through Webb's broker but must be negotiated prior to the item leaving Webb's. Valuation Service Webb's provide free market appraisals on Monday mornings from 9am-1 pm or at other times by appointment. Webb's appraisers will come to your home to view and appraise larger items.

Webb's will provide valuations for insurance, matrimonial division, family division etc. Please enquire at reception for charges. Valuation charges are refundable on occasion when goods are subsequently offered for sale within a reasonable period.
