-ALL LOTS ARE SOLD 'AS IS'.
A Condition Report of a given lot, if available, may be found on Live Auctioneers.
Condition reports are provided as a courtesy and are based solely on
opinion and observation and are not a guarantee of an item's quality, as
well as reflect expectations subject to the given age of the given lot.
Condition reports carry no guarantee, implied or otherwise, of their
correctness. Existence of a condition report for a given lot does not
presume that all aspects of a particular lot have been analyzed. While
every reasonable effort is made to respond to all requests for
condition, due to the volume of requests, DuMouchelles cannot guarantee
that all requests will receive a response.
- Additional photos for a given lot may become available and will be
uploaded to Live Auctioneers - at DuMouchelles discretion - on the LiveAuctioneers page that
corresponds with that lot.

address, phone number and email address as well bank references or

contacting DuMouchelles regarding the status of their pending
application.

each session of DuMouchelles auction or early the following day.

**DuMouchelles does not endorse or recommend any particular business
above. Please interview and hire at your own risk.
1. DuMouchelles Art Galleries Co., and the Consignor assume no
risk, liability or responsibility for the authenticity of the authorship
of any property identified in the catalog. All property is sold 'AS IS'
and neither DuMouchelles nor the Consignor make any warranties or
representations of any kind or nature with respect to the property, and
no statement in the catalog or made at the sale, or in the bill of sale
or invoice or elsewhere shall be deemed an assumption of liability or a
warrant or representation as to the description, genuineness,
attribution, provenance or condition of the property. DuMouchelles and
the Consignor make no representation or warranty as to whether the
successful bidder acquires any reproduction rights in the property.
Prospective bidders should inspect or request the condition of the
property before bidding to determine its condition, size and whether or
not it has been repaired or restored.
2. A premium of 21% of the successful bid price will be added
thereto and is payable by the purchaser as part of the total purchase
price on lots in sale.
3. DuMouchelles reserves the right to withdraw all or part of
any lot prior to the sale of that lot.
4. Unless otherwise announced by the auctioneer, all bids are
per lot as numbered in the catalog.
5. Notwithstanding the preceding conditions, if within
twenty-one days of the sale of any lot, the purchaser gives notice in
writing to DuMouchelles that the lot so sold is a counterfeit and, if
within ten days of such notice the purchaser returns the lot to
DuMouchelles in the same condition as when sold, and proves beyond a
reasonable doubt that the returned lot is in fact a counterfeit and that
this was not indicated by a fair reading of the catalog, the sale will
be rescinded and the purchase price refunded. Consignor agrees to refund
DuMouchelles any payments made to Consignor for any counterfeit property
returned DuMouchelles.
6. Unless the sale is advertised and announced as a sale without
reserves, each lot is offered subject to reserve and the DuMouchelles
may implement such reserves by bidding through its representatives on
behalf of the Consignor.
7. DuMouchelles reserves the right to reject a bid from any
bidder. The highest bidder acknowledged by the auctioneer shall be the
purchaser. In the event of any dispute between bidders, the auctioneer
shall have sole and final discretion either to determine the purchaser
or to re-offer and resell the article in dispute. If any dispute arises
after the sale, the sale record of DuMouchelles shall be conclusive in
all respects. DuMouchelles will not be responsible for errors or
failure to execute bids.
8. If the auctioneer determines that any opening bid is not
commensurate with the value of the article offered, he may reject the
same and withdraw the article from the sale; and, if having acknowledged
an opening bid, he decides that any advance thereafter is not of
sufficient amount, he may reject the advance.
9. On the fall of the auctioneer's hammer, title to the offered
lot will pass from Consignor to the purchaser, subject to all the
conditions set forth herein, and purchaser thereupon a) assumes full
risk and responsibility therefore, b) will sign a confirmation of
purchase thereof, and c) will thereupon pay the full purchase price
therefore or such part as we may require. We reserve the right to impose
a late charge of 1 1/2% per month on the total purchase price if payment
is not made in accordance with all of the conditions set forth herein.
All property must be removed from our premises by the purchaser at their
expense not later than 10 business days following its sale and, if it is
not so removed, a handling charge of 1% of the purchase price will be
payable by the purchaser per month until its removal, with a minimum of
5% for any property not so removed within 60 days after the sale. If any
applicable conditions herein are not compiled with by the purchaser in
addition to other remedies available to us and the Consignor by law,
including without limitation the right to a) hold the purchaser liable
for the total purchase price, we at our option may either cancel the
sale, retaining as liquidated damages all payments made by the purchaser
or b) resell the property at public auction, and the purchaser shall be
liable for any deficiency, costs, including handling charges, the
expenses of both sales, or commission on both sales at option, payment
will not be deemed to have been made in full until we have collected
funds represented by checks, or, in the case of bank or cashier's
checks, we have confirmed their authenticity. As between DuMouchelles
and Consignor, if the successful bidder does not pay for the property,
collection procedures shall be the responsibility of Consignor and not
DuMouchelles.
10. Unless exempted by law from the payment thereof, the
purchaser will be required to pay Michigan state retail sales taxes at a
rate of 6%, or any taxes that are applicable at this date. Unless
exemption from such taxes is established to the satisfaction of
DuMouchelles, any purchaser claiming an exemption will be required to
pay the tax to DuMouchelles and seek a refund.
Purchasers not intending to take possession or use the property
purchased by them at the sale within the State of Michigan must make
arrangements with a shipping company for shipment outside the State of
Michigan at the purchaser's risk and expense prior to the bidding.
Otherwise, Michigan state taxes of 6% will be added to the bill.
