INFORMATION FOR BUYERS1 Introduction. The following informative notes are intended to assist Buyers, particularly those inexperienced or new to our salerooms.

All sales are conducted on our printed Conditions of Sale which are readily available for inspection and normally accompany catalogues. Our staff will be happy to help you if there is anything you do not fully understand.

2 Agency. As auctioneers we usually contract as agents for the seller whose identity, for reasons of confidentiality, is not normally disclosed. Accordingly if you buy, your primary contract is with the seller.

3 Estimates. Estimates are designed to help buyers gauge what sort of sum might be involved for the purchase of a particular lot. The lower estimate may represent the reserve price and certainly will not be below it. Estimates do not include the Buyer’s Premium or VAT (where chargeable). Estimates are prepared some time before the sale and may be altered by announcement before the sale. They are in no sense definitive.

4 Buyers Premium. The Conditions of Sale oblige buyers to pay a buyer’s premium at 24% on the hammer price of each lot purchased. In addition, VAT is included in this premium (see below).

5 VAT. (v) indicates that VAT is payable by the purchaser at the standard rate (presently 20%) on the hammer price as well as being an element in the buyer’s premium. This imposition of VAT is likely to be because the seller is registered for VAT within the European Union and is not operating the Dealer’s Margin Scheme or because VAT is due at 20% on the importation into the UK. The double symbol (**) indicated that the lot has been imported from outside the European Union and the present position is that these lots are liable to a reduced rate of VAT (5%) on the gross lot price (ie. both the hammer price and the buyer’s premium). Lots which appear without either of the above symbols indicate that no VAT is payable on the hammer price. This is because such lots are sold using the Auctioneers’ Margin Scheme and it should be noted that the VAT included within the Premium is not recoverable as input tax.

6 Conditions of lots. Please note carefully the exclusion of liability for the condition of lots contained in the Conditions of Sale. Intending buyers have ample opportunity for inspection of goods and neither the seller not we as the auctioneers accept any responsibility for their condition. In particular, mechanical objects of any age are not guaranteed to be in working order. However, in specified circumstances lots mis-described because they are ‘deliberate forgeries’ may be returned and repayment made. There is a 2 week time limit. (The expression ‘deliberate forgery’ is defined in our Conditions of Sale).

7 Condition reports. We may be able to assist buyers unable to view by posting or faxing a condition report, but these reports are based solely on our own opinion and are for guidance only and no responsibility is accepted for their accuracy. Intending buyers are strongly encouraged to view. (Please see our Conditions of Sale).

8 Electrical goods. These are sold as ‘antiques’ only and if bought for use must be checked over for compliance with safety regulations by a qualified electrician first.

9 Export of goods. Buyers intending to export goods should ascertain (a) whether an export licence is required and (b) whether there is any specific prohibition on promoting on importing goods of that character because, e.g., they contain prohibited materials such as ivory. Ask us if you need help.

10 Bidding. Bidders may be required to register before the sale commences and lots will be invoiced to the name and address on the registration form. Some form of identification may be required if you are unknown to us. Please enquire in advance about our arrangements for telephone bidding.

11 Commission bidding. Commission bids may be left with the auctioneers indicating the maximum amount to be bid excluding buyers’ premium. They will be executed as cheaply as possible having regard to the reserve (if any) and competing bids. If two buyers submit identical commission bids the auctioneers may prefer the first bid received. Please enquire in advance about our arrangements for the leaving of commission bids by telephone or FAX.

12 Methods of Payment. As a general rule any cheques tendered will need to be cleared before removal of the goods is permitted. Please discuss with our Office in advance of the sale if other methods of payment are envisaged (except cash).

13 Collection and storage. Please note what the Conditions of Sale state about collection and storage. It is important that goods are paid for and collected promptly. Any delay beyond five working days will involve buyers in paying our storage charges calculated at £3.00 per lot per day unless prior alternative arrangements have been agreed. NO LOTS MAY BE REMOVED IN RESPECT OF CHEQUE PAYMENTS UNTIL FUNDS ARE CLEARED IN OUR ACCOUNT.

THE ALEC BROWN COLLECTION

667 Thomas A Edison Triumph phonograph no.73258 in oak case with rosewood veneered metal horn marked music master Together with oak amberole storage cupboard/stand on spiral turn supports united by stretchers

Provenance; The Alec Brown (1912-2011) Collection Alec was interested in all things mechanical and

electrical and he worked at Vickers Engineering at Weybridge. When the factory was bombed during the Second World War he was transferred to The Royal Aircraft Establishment (RAE) at Farnborough and worked there in the Engineering Department. He retired from RAE after thirty years service.

On his retirement he was able to concentrate on his hobby of collecting recordings of folk/country songs so loved by his parents. He visited America and Canada sourcing for his collection.

In later life he suffered heart problems and his mobility suffered. He would spend hours listening to his records and documenting his collection.

He was able to give concerts on his gramophone to the elderly residents of the Nursing Home where he later resided. The residents loved the songs and recalling the artistes of a bygone era.

927 George Frederick Watts, (1817-1904), portrait of John Whichelo, oil on canvas, exhibited at the Royal Academy 1840 no 7, 30” x 24.5” NOTES: The imposing oil on canvas in its original elaborately carved giltwood frame is a portrait of the artist John Wichelo, who gained renown for his paintings for the Prince Regent. It was exhibited at the Royal Academy in 1840 and was Watts’ first named portrait shown there. Since then, it has remained in the same family ownership, passing by inheritance to the present vendor, making this the first time the portrait has been seen on the open market.

The sitter (Charles) John Mayne Whichelo (1784-1865) became known as an illustrator. His earliest work was of a purely topographical character, and some of his drawings were engraved for Wilkinson’s “Londina Illustrata” and Brayley’s “Beauties of England and Wales”. He exhibited marine views at the Royal Academy from 1810 until his death and was chosen to be Marine and Landscape Painter to the Prince Regent, an appointment he held for several years.

Whichelo became an associate member of the Old Watercolour Society in 1823. He was a regular contributor to its exhibitions for the next 40 years, his subjects being mainly representations of English coast and harbour scenery, with a few views of Dutch rivers. He usually signed his drawings “John Whichelo”. He also taught for a time and his studio sale was held at Christie’s in 1866.

That he was chosen by Watts as the sitter for his first named portrait at the RA is indicative of Wichelo’s place in the history of British art. Grey-haired Whichelo is pictured seated in a casual pose, his eyes catching the viewer’s attention, and tellingly holding a drawing instrument in his right hand, clearly indicating his profession.

Watts is an artist linked to his adopted home of Compton, near Guildford, by the Watts Gallery, which opened to the public in 1904. Its curator, Mark Bills, said his work is of seminal importance in understanding the Victorian period because he was one of its most notable artistic innovators. “A complex figure, Watts was the finest and most penetrating portraitist of his age, a sculptor, landscape painter and symbolist which earned him the title ‘England’s Michelangelo.’

His fame and renown was not limited to Britain ... in 1884 he was the first living artist to have a solo exhibition at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, a show so enormously successful that it led to a longer run and a gift of his great work, “Love and Life” to the American people. His works also found great favour in Europe, winning gold medals at the Paris Universal Exhibitions in 1878 and 1889. His influence among symbolists was profound and can be seen in the works of Gustave Moreau and Fernand Knopff.

This portrait is included in Mary Watts schedule of the artist’s work (see below)

Amongst Documents being sold with this lot are three signed letters from G F Watts as follows;

1. April 4th 1885 from Little Holland House Kensington, replying to a letter from Mr Rowe. He apologies for the delay in replying to a letter because of illness. “I do not doubt the portrait which I should much like to see was painted by me for I very well recollect painting Mr Whichelo and as far as I recall it I should not be surprised to find it good enough to put to shame many of my later works”

2 Jan 12th 1890 from Monks Hatch Guildford. “ could you find out without giving yourself any inconvenience where that portrait is now.”

3 Feb 1st (1890) from Monks Hatch Guildford, suggesting that the picture be brought to him so that he could sign it.

4 July 28th 1927 signed letter from Mary Watts Linnerslease Guildford, alette to the possibility of sale and bemoaning the fact that like other portraits of distinguished men it would have little value. “ I feel certain that at Christies now it would not fetch the value of the frame!”

Mrs Watts in her ledger refers to her husband having subsequently seen the portrait again over 50 years after it had been painted but she says; This picture disappointed Mr Watts on seeing it again after nearly 50 years,. He had hoped he said “that it was a better thing”.

Watts had suggested that he sign the painting but clearly did not do so as it remains unsigned.

Provenance; The portrait has passed by inheritance and the present owner is a distant relative of the sitter. This is the first time that it has been on the market since it was painted in 1840 £5,000-8,000 See Illustration.

Thomas Kenah joined the Army as an Ensign in the 5th Foot on 14 August 1799. He was promoted Lieutenant on 9 May 1800. On 27 March 1801 he transferred to the 58th Foot. He was promoted Captain on 3 March 1804, Major on 5 November 1812 and brevet Lieutenant-Colonel on 27 December 1813. By 1820 he had been created a C.B.

He was invested a K.C.B. in 1865. At the time of his death he was Colonel of the 63rd (West Suffolk) Regiment of Foot.

According to Hart’s Army List (1867): ‘Sir Thomas Kenah served in Holland in 1799, and was present in the action of 19th of Sept. – as well as in several minor affairs. In Egypt, under, under Sir Ralph Abercromby in 1901; in Sicily from 1808 to 1812; subsequently, on the coast of Spain, as Assistant, and afterwards as Deputy-Adjutant-General at the Head of the Department, and present at the battle of Castilia, as also several other affairs. Served also at the siege and capture of Genoa in 1814. He has received the Gold Medal from the Grand Seignior for the Egyptian campaign, and also the Silver Medal with one Clasp’.

He owned estates in Ireland, though very much an absentee landlord while still serving. Towards the end of his life he was living in Albermarle Street.

1157 Nakayama, Tadashi (b. 1927), wood block print of the artist’s daughter, signed in pencil and dated 1956, 8.5” x 10” One of Japan’s best known and most widely collected woodblock printmakers, Tadashi Nakayama was born in Niigata in 1927. He began making woodblocks in 1950. He lived in Milan, London and Bath, and taught at the Bath Academy of Arts in 1964-65. He now resides in Tokyo.

Although 83 years old, Nakayama has only made fewer than 275 prints. His printing techniques are laborious and difficult. Some works require 18 blocks, 40 or more colors and over 50 printing stages. The worldwide demand for his prints together with their limited production has assured the artist’s success. His major themes include butterflies, girls and horses.

Tadashi Nakayama works can be found in many museums, including the Honolulu Academy of Arts, Library of Congress, Harvard University, Fogg Art Museum, Achenbach Foundation for the Graphic Arts in San Francisco, Minnesota Museum of Art, National Gallery of Victoria, Australia and the Western Art Museum in Perth.

Restored To Former GlorySurrey Fine Art Auctions Ewbank Clarke Gammon Wellers Fund Restoration Of Painting By Local Artist Sidney Sime

Following the sponsorship of last year’s highly successful exhibition of rarely seen paintings and drawings by local artist Sidney Sime, Surrey fine art and antiques auctioneer Ewbank Clarke Gammon Wellers have funded the restoration of one of the works back to its former glory.

In a painstaking and lengthy operation, uildford artist and restorer Tim Dolby has transformed the painting, called Fantasy Landscape, to reveal the work’s colour and magic previoulsy hidden under old varnish and atmospheric pollution. It now hangs in pride of place in The Sidney Sime Gallery in the artist’s adopted home of Worplesdon.

“The cleaning process has been a revelation,” Chris Ewbank said. While before there was only a hint of the colours and mystery which lay beneath the accumulated dirt, now the picture has come alive. Tim Dolby has done a magnificent job.”

SEE BELOW AND COMPARE FOR YOURSELF

Mr Dolby, whose workshop is in Merrow Street, learned restoration crafts from the restorers of Hampton Court and has honed his skills over 30 years. He looks after paintings in the Bishop of London’s collection and also has a studio in the Bastide village of Monflanquin in France.

He said: “Cleaning a Sidney Sime painting is a magical voyage of discovery in a fantasy world of hidden secretive figures , mythical creatures, golden

Tim Dolby at work

haired maidens, dark and brooding trees and the endless presence of the eternal light shining down from the heavens. As the grime of the ages was slowly removed layer by layer, it was exciting as more of the beauty of this fantasy world came into view.

“I have been an artist and restorer most of my life and one always enjoys the pleasure of the rediscovery of the soul of a painting which is hiding behind the layers of old decaying varnish and the years of living in smoke-filled rooms. It is the closest one gets to the artist.”

Gifted illustrator Sidney H. Sime (1867-1941) had a meteoric career. He rose from pit-boy to artist in the space of a few years and made his name in London, largely as an illustrator, cartoonist and caricaturist, although he was also a painter of distinction whose work has been compared to Aubrey Beardsley, Arthur Rackham and William Blake.

In the latter part of his life and beset by self-doubt and a contempt of fame, Sime became something off a recluse in his country house in Worplesdon. He died in relative obscurity having largely disappeared from public view.

However, his wife Mary bequeathed all her husband’s pictures in her possession to the Trustees of Worplesdon Memorial Hall for the creation of a gallery solely for the display of his work, which she endowed with the proceeds of the sale of her home, Crown Cottage.

Last year’s Guildford House Gallery exhibition, “Sidney Sime: Master of the Mysterious” which was sponsored jointly by auctioneers Ewbank Clarke Gammon Wellers and estate agents Clarke Gammon Wellers, introduced a new generation of art lovers to the work of one of England’s great illustrators. The works can now be seen at the Sidney Sime Gallery at Worplesdon, which is open by appointment.

EWBANK AUCTIONEERSIn 1994 we acquired the Burnt Common Auction Rooms, which are situated just off the A3, under ten minutes away from junction 10 on the M25. It is a very prominent site in an out of town location giving easy access and acres of parking. Woking main line station is 4 miles with trains to Waterloo (25 minutes). Throughout our time in Guildford, we have had the privilege of advising thousands clients on the valuation and sale of Antiques and Fine Art and have conducted well in excess of a hundred Antiques and Fine Arts auctions and over three hundred General Sales. When we started in 1990 we held six auctions a year and we are now expecting to hold up to 24 in the next twelve months

If they are to succeed, businesses like ours must give clients and buyers an efficient and friendly service and, over the years, we have always tried to maintain the highest standards, adhering to the principles of probity and ethics of the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors and the Society of Fine Art Auctioneers and Valuers, of which we are Members. Most of our new clients come to us on recommendation, from professional advisers or existing clients. As the costs of selling by Auction in Central London have rocketed we have benefited from the general trend in recent years for more important items to be sold outside the capital. Catalogues are produced and circulated to prospective purchasers by post and E-mail and full details, including digital illustrations of almost all lots in our quarterly Antique and Fine Art auctions, are included on the internet. Buyers are attracted from all over the world.

We have an agreement with artfact.com, who list our antique sales on Ebay, take commission bids from prospective buyers and facilitate active participation in the auction from a PC anywhere in the world at the time that the sale is actually in progress. This gives a far greater global marketing ability. We are trail-blazing in this field as there are only a handful of other Antique and Fine Art salerooms in the UK who also list on eBay. We see this as being the way forward for the future and it will maximise our ability to achieve the best possible prices for our clients. In our first internet linked auction in 2005 there were nearly 20000 visits to our online catalogue generating over 500 specific enquiries and the figures have risen markedly since then.

Ewbank Auctioneers has grown from humble beginnings holding six sales a year, to the position that we hold today, with our own salerooms and some twenty sales a year. Turnover since 1990 has increased by over 800%. Building refurbishment works have just been completed, which include, a new mezzanine floor doubling our existing floor space, a new entrance, offices, a new heating system and external face-lift.

Chris Ewbank has taken a very active part in the leadership of the profession within the UK. He has been a member of the Fine Arts Advisory Panel of the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors and Chairman of its Art and Antiques Professional Group. He is also an elected Member of its International Governing Council ( the highest decision making body in the Institution). He joined the Committee of the Society of Fine Art Auctioneers & Valuers in 1994, (he first became a member in 1982), and was Chairman from 2000 - 2007. He has also in recent years been on the Executive Committee of the British Art Market Federation and was one of the first to join the new City of London Guild of Arts Scholars, Dealers and Collectors.

T E R M S O F C O N S I G N M E N T F O R S E L L E R S

1. Interpretation. In these Terms the words ‘you’, ‘yours’, etc. refer to the Seller and if the consignment of goods to us is made by an agent we assume that the Seller has authorised the consignment and that the consignor has the Seller’s authority to contract. Similarly the words ‘we’, ‘us’, etc. refer to the Auctioneers.

2. Commission is charged to sellers calculated per lot, as follows: 15% up to £1,000 – 10% thereafter Entry charge on each lot (sold or unsold) £5 Loss and damage warranty 1.5% All the above are subject to VAT at current rates 3. Removal costs. Items for sale must be consigned to the sale room

by any stated deadline and at your expense. We may be able to assist you with this process but any liability incurred to a carrier for haulage charges is solely your responsibility.

4. Loss and damage warranty (a) All goods on our premises are warranted against fire, theft or accidental damage while on our premises and sellers are charged at the rate of 1.5% of the hammer price plus VAT or our best estimate of what the hammer price would have been had the goods sold.

5. Illustrations. The cost of any illustrations is borne by you. If we consider that the Lot should be illustrated your permission will be asked first. The copyright in respect of such illustrations shall be the property of us, the auctioneers, as is the text of the catalogue.

6. Minimum bids and our discretion. Goods will normally be offered subject to a reserve agreed between us before the sale in accordance with clause 7. We may sell Lots below the reserve provided we account to you for the same sale proceeds as you would have received had the reserve been the hammer price. If you specifically give us a “discretion” we may accept a bid of up to 10% below the formal reserve.

7. Reserves. (a) You are entitled to place prior to the auction a reserve on any

lot consigned, being the minimum hammer price at which that lot may be sold. Reserves must be reasonable and we may decline to offer goods which in our opinion would be subject to an unreasonably high reserve (in which case goods carry the storage and Loss and Damage Warranty charges stipulated in these Terms of Consignment).

(b) A reserve once set cannot be changed except with our consent. (c) Where a reserve has been placed only we may bid on your

behalf and only up to the reserve (if any) and you may in no circumstances bid personally.

8. Electrical items. These are subject to detailed statutory safety controls. Where such items are accepted for sale you accept responsibility for the cost of testing by external contractors. Goods not certified as safe by an electrician (unless antiques) will not be accepted for sale. They must be removed at your expense on your being notified. We reserve the right to dispose of unsafe goods as refuse, at your expense.

9. Soft furnishings. The sale of soft furnishings is strictly regulated by statute law in the interests of fire safety. Goods found to infringe safety regulations will not be offered and must be removed at your expense. We reserve the right to dispose of unsafe goods as refuse, at your expense.

The rights of disposal referred to in clause 8 and 9 are subject to the provisions of The Torts (Interference with Goods) Act 1977, Schedule 1, a copy of which is available for inspection on request

10. Descriptions. Please assist us with accurate information as to the provenance etc. of goods where this is relevant. There is strict liability for the accuracy of descriptions under modern consumer

legislation and in some circumstances responsibility lies with sellers if inaccuracies occur. We will assume that you have approved the catalogue description of your lots unless informed to the contrary. Where we are obliged to return the price to the buyer when the lot is a deliberate forgery under Condition 15 of the Conditions of Sale and we have accounted to you for the proceeds of sale you agree to reimburse us the sale proceeds. The liability to reimburse the sale proceeds shall not arise where you are acting reasonably and honestly and are unaware of the forgery but we are or ought to have been aware of it.

11. Unsold and withdrawn items. If an item is unsold it may with your consent be re-offered at a future sale. Where in our opinion an item is unsaleable you must collect such items from the saleroom promptly on being so informed. Otherwise, storage charges may be incurred. We reserve the right to charge for storage in these circumstances at a reasonable daily rate.

12. Withdrawn and bought in items. These are liable to incur a charge of 10 % plus VAT on being bought in or withdrawn after being catalogued. Minimum charge £10.

13. Conditions of Sale. You agree that all goods will be sold on our Conditions of Sale. In particular you undertake that you have the right to sell the goods either as owner or agent for the owner. You undertake to compensate us and any buyer or third party for all losses liabilities and expenses incurred in respect of and as a result of any breach of this undertaking.

15. Authority to deduct commission and expenses and retain premium and interest.

(a) You authorise us to deduct commission at the stated rate and all expenses incurred for your account from the hammer price and consent to our right to retain beneficially the premium paid by the buyer in accordance with our Conditions of Sale and any interest earned on the sale proceeds until the date of settlement.

(b) You authorise us in our discretion to negotiate a sale by private treaty not later than the close of business on the day of the sale in the case of lots unsold at auction, in which case the same charges will be payable as if such lots had been sold at auction and so far as appropriate these Terms apply.

16. Warehousing. We disclaim all liability for goods delivered to our saleroom without sufficient sale instructions. and reserve the right to make minimum warehousing charge of £5 per lot per day. Unsold lots are subject to the same charges if you do not remove them within a reasonable time of notification. If not removed within three weeks we reserve the right to sell them and defray charges from any net proceeds of sale or at your expense to consign them to the local authority for disposal.

17. Settlement. After sale settlement of the net sum due to you normally takes place 21 days after the sale (by crossed cheque to the seller) unless the buyer has not paid for the goods. In this case no settlement will then be made but we will take your instructions in the light of our Conditions of Sale. You authorise any sums owed by you to us on other transactions to be deducted from the sale proceeds. You must note the liability to reimburse the proceeds of sale to us as under the circumstances provided for in Condition 10 above. You should therefore bear this potential liability in mind before parting with the proceeds of sale until the expiry of 21 days from the date of sale.

9. THIRD PARTY LIABILITY All members of the public on our premises are there at their

own risk and must note the lay-out of the accommodation and security arrangements. Accordingly neither the auctioneer nor our employees or agents shall incur liability for death or personal injury (except as required by law by reason of our negligence) or similarly for the safety of the property of persons visiting prior to or at a sale.

10. COMMISSION BIDS Whilst prospective buyers are strongly advised to attend the

auction and are always responsible for any decision to bid for a particular Lot and shall be assumed to have carefully inspected and satisfied themselves as to its condition we will if so instructed clearly and in writing execute bids on their behalf.

Where two or more commission bids at the same level are recorded we reserve the right in our absolute discretion to prefer the first bid so made.

11. WARRANTY OF TITLE AND AVAILABILITY The seller warrants to the auctioneer and you that the seller

is the true owner of the property consigned or is properly authorised by the true owner to consign it for sale and is able to transfer good and marketable title to the property free from any third party claims.

responsibility for default by sellers or buyers.

stipulations of these Conditions in their entirety and on the Terms of Consignment as notified to the consignor at the time of the entry of the Lot.

14. DESCRIPTIONS AND CONDITION (1) Whilst we seek to describe lots accurately, it may be

impractical for us to carry out exhaustive due diligence on each lot. Prospective buyers are given ample opportunities to view and inspect before any sale and they (and any independent experts on their behalf) must satisfy themselves as to the accuracy of any description applied to a lot. Prospective buyers also bid on the understanding that, inevitably, representations or statements by us as to authorship, genuineness, origin, date, age, provenance, condition or estimated selling price involve matters of opinion. We undertake that any such opinion shall be honestly and reasonably held and accept liability for opinions given negligently or fraudulently. Subject to the foregoing neither we the auctioneer nor our employees or agents nor the seller accept liability for the correctness of such opinions and all conditions and warranties, whether relating to description, condition or quality of lots, express, implied or statutory, are hereby excluded. This Condition is subject to the next following Condition concerning deliberate forgeries and applies save as provided for in paragraph 6 “information to buyers”.

(2) Private treaty sales made under these Conditions are

deemed to be sales by auction for purposes of consumer legislation.

15. FORGERIES Notwithstanding the preceding Condition, any Lot which

proves to be a deliberate forgery (as defined) may be returned to us by you within 21 days of the auction provided it is in the same condition as when bought, and is accompanied by particulars identifying it from the relevant catalogue description and a written statement of defects. If we are satisfied from the evidence presented that the Lot is a deliberate forgery we shall refund the money paid by you for the Lot including any buyer’s premium provided that (1) if the catalogue description reflected the accepted view of scholars and experts as at the date of sale or (2) you personally are not able to transfer a good and marketable title to us, you shall have no rights under this condition.

The right of return provided by this Condition is additional to any right or remedy provided by law or by these Conditions of Sale.

GENERAL16. We shall have the right at our discretion, to refuse admission to

our premises or attendance at our auctions by any person.

17. (1) any right to compensation for losses liabilities and expenses incurred in respect of and as a result of any breach of these Conditions and any exclusions provided by them shall be available to the seller and/or the auctioneer as appropriate.

(2) Such rights and exclusions shall extend to and be deemed to be for the benefit of employees and agents of the seller and/or the auctioneer who may themselves enforce them.

18. Any notice to any buyer, seller, bidder or viewer may be given by first class mail or Swiftmail in which case it shall be deemed to have been received by the addressee 48 hours after posting.

19. Special terms may be used in catalogue descriptions of particular classes of items in which case the descriptions must be interpreted in accordance with any glossary appearing at the commencement of the catalogue.

20. Any indulgence extended to bidders buyers or sellers by us notwithstanding the strict terms of these Conditions or of the Terms of Consignment shall affect the position at the relevant time only and in respect of that particular concession only; in all other respects these Conditions shall be construed as having full force and effect.

21. English law applies to the interpretation of these Conditions.
