We will mention all of these that we, as collectors, would find in the least objectionable ourselves. Terms of Sale The buyer is the person making the final and highest bid.

The final bid is the price at which the lot is knocked down to the buyer. This final bid, in all cases, is subject to a 15% buyer’s premium (20% if bidding via the Internet), the purchase price being the total of the two sums. If the purchase price is not paid in full, the auctioneer may either cancel the sale, and any partial payment already made shall be there upon forfeited as liquidated damages or the auctioneer may resell the lot, without notice to the buyer. Absentee, Written, Telephone and Internet bids Absentee bids are welcomed. Absentee bids will be executed as if the bidder were present at the auction with the earliest bid received having preference in case of a tie between absentee bidders. Floor bids will be taken over absentee bids in case of a tie. Absentee, written or telephone bids are subject to the same 15% buyer’s premium, and all credit requirements as listed above. Internet bids are subject to a 20% buyer’s premium as well as the credit requirements. The auctioneer, Cincinnati Art Galleries, LLC and their employees are not responsible for absentee, written or telephone bids that are not properly executed. We have a limited number of telephone lines available during the auction. These will be reserved on a first come first served basis for telephone bidding. Due to the limited number of lines, we may not be able to accommodate telephone bidding on lots with low estimates of under $500. We will be happy to accept absentee bids on any lots not eligible for telephone bidding. All packing and shipping cost of items purchased by Absentee, Written or Telephone or Internet bids will be borne by the purchaser. In the case of tie bids from absentee bidders, the earliest received bid will be the winner. Floor bids, phone bids and internet bids always take precedence over absentee bids of equal amount, no matter when the absentee bids are received. Buyer’s Premium The final bid (“hammer” price) is subject to a buyer’s premium (see “Absentee, Written, Telephone and Internet bids” above). The purchase price is the total of these two sums. Reserves and Estimates The estimated value of each lot is printed in the catalog, and merely reflects the price range into which a lot might fall. All lots have a reserve price below which they will not be sold. The reserve price is not published in the catalog, but in no case is it higher than the lower amount of the estimated price. Removal All lots are to be removed by their buyers not later than 9:00 p.m. day of sale. Lots are released to buyers upon presentation of proof of payment.
