Unless otherwise indicated in the respective catalogue descriptions (which are subject to amendment by oral or written notices or announcements made by Owen Magic Supreme prior to sale). 2. With respect to autograph material, letters, historic documents, literary and musical manuscripts, inscribed books and signed photographs, books, maps and atlases, and any other works not included in (a) above, unless physical inspection would reveal self-evident lack of authenticity, Owen Magic Supreme warrants for a period of Ninety (90) days from the date of sale the authenticity of each lot catalogued, provided that the claim under the foregoing warranty is made to Owen Magic Supreme within One Hundred Twenty (120) days of the sale. Otherwise the claim under this warranty is deemed waived. 3. Serial publications, books in original parts, extra-illustrated books, made up "albums" and lots described as "sold as is," "sold not subject to return," "not collated," "collection of" or "group of," and any lot containing more than three (3) items, are sold "AS IS" and "WITH FAULT" and therefore not covered by these warranties. 4.

The buyer's sole remedy under these warranties shall be the rescission of the sale and refund of the original purchase price paid for the item, and this remedy shall be exclusive and in lieu of any other remedy which might otherwise be available to the buyer as a matter of law. 6. With respect to autograph material (see Paragraph 1.a. above), or any print, drawing, or watercolor: in the event that a buyer claims that an item is not authentic, Owen Magic Supreme shall have no obligation to rescind the sale unless the buyer has obtained, at the buyer's expense, the opinion of two recognized experts in the field, who are mutually agreeable to Owen Magic Supreme and the buyer, that a lot or portion thereof is not authentic. ADVICE TO PROSPECTIVE BIDDERS 1. ALL PROPERTY IS SOLD SUBJECT TO THIS ADVICE, THE CONDITIONS OF SALE, AND TERMS OF WARRANTY PRINTED IN THE CATALOGUE. 2. Inspection of Property. Prospective bidders or their agents are strongly advised to personally inspect property prior to the auction. All lots are sold "AS IS" and "WITH FAULT" without recourse to Owen Magic Supreme. A limited warranty provision is provided in the Terms and Condition of Sale. 3. Negation of Express Warranties or Intent to Warrant by Description. Buyer agrees that there have been no affirmations of fact or promises made by Seller relating to the lot or lots and becoming part of the basis of the bargain other than those affirmations and promises expressly set forth herein. 4. Buyer's Premium. The purchase price payable on any lot purchased will be the total of the final bid plus the Buyer's Premium as defined in paragraph 7 of the Conditions of Sale, plus all applicable sales taxes. 5. Bidding Increments. Expected bid increments are as follows: Minimum Value Maximum Value Expected Bid Increment from $0.00 to $29.00 $5.00 from $30.00 to $99.00 $10.00 from $100.00 to $499.00 $25.00 from $500.00 to $999.00 $50.00 from $1,000.00 to $1,999.00 $100.00 from $2,000.00 to $5,999.00 $200.00 from $6,000.00 to $9,999.00 $500.00 from $10,000.00 to $19,999.00 $1,000.00 from $20,000.00 to $49,999.00 $2,000.00 from $50,000.00 and above 10% of the current bid However, the auctioneer may modify the increments at any time. 6. Reserves. All lots are subject to a reserve, which is the confidential minimum price agreed to with the seller below which the lot will not be sold. The reserve will never be higher than the low pre-sale estimate, and will never be lower than half the low estimate. Owen Magic Supreme may implement such reserve by opening the bidding and may bid up to the amount of the reserve by placing successive or consecutive bids for a lot in response to other bidders. 7. Estimates. The estimates provided are intended as a guide to bidding. The figures are educated guesses, based on recent values. A bid between the listed figures would, in our opinion, have a chance of success (at the time the catalogue was prepared). The estimates are exclusive of the buyer's premium, and may be revised at any time prior to the auction. 8. Bidding. All persons attending the auction must obtain a bidding number prior to bidding. If bids cannot be made in person or by an agent, they may be made by mail, fax, e-mail, telephone or on-line and such bids will be executed without charge. 9. Absentee Bids will be executed by Owen Magic Supreme on the bidder's behalf in competition with other on-line bids, absentee bids and bidding in the room. Every effort will be made to carry out the bidder's instructions, but Owen Magic Supreme shall in no event be responsible for failing correctly to carry out instructions, and Owen Magic Supreme reserves the right to decline to undertake such bids. Bids by mail should be made in U.S. dollars. 10. Removal of Property. All lots purchased shall be removed at the purchaser's risk and expense immediately following the sale. Purchases not so removed will be treated as set forth in paragraph 9 of the Conditions of Sale. 11. Shipment. Upon request, Owen Magic Supreme will facilitate the shipping of purchases to out-of-town or on-line purchasers at an additional charge for packing, shipping and insurance, but will not be responsible for any loss, damage or delay resulting from the packing, handling and shipping thereof. Unless specific instructions are received, Owen Magic Supreme is the sole judge of the method to be used for shipment. 12. Prices Realized. A list of prices realized will be published subsequent to the sale. The Prices Realized will be made available on line. 13. Lots not Returnable. Paragraph 3 of the Limited Warranty describes lots which are sold "AS IS" and "WITH FAULT" and not returnable. Books, manuscripts, prints, drawings, photographs, signatures, or any other property offered in a lot comprising more than 3 items, whether or not such items are individually named, constitute "Grouped Lots." Such "Grouped Lots" are not subject to return for any reason.
