Conditions of Sale
The property offered in this sale will be offered and sold by Joe Papp Fund Auction (JPFA). Any questions should be directed to JPFA which serves as auctioneer in conducting the auction sale and participates on the following terms and conditions, as amended by any posted notices or oral announcements during the sale, which govern the sale of all the property offered at the auction:

1. (a) JPFA does not assume any risk, liability or responsibility for the authenticity of the authorship of any property offered at this auction (that is the identity of the creator or the period, culture, source or origin, as the case may be, with which the creation of any property is identified).

(b) ALL PROPERTY IS SOLD "AS IS" AND JPFA DOES NOT MAKE ANY REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND OR NATURE, EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, WITH RESPECT TO THE PROPERTY, AND IN NO EVENT SHALL JPFA BE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE CORRECNESS OF ANY CATALOGUE OR NOTICES OR DESCRIPTIONS OF PROPERTY, NOR BE DEEMED TO HAVE MADE ANY REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTY OF PHYSICAL CONDITION, SIZE, QUALITY, RARITY, IMPORTANCE, GENUINENESS, ATRIBUTION, AUTHENTICITY, PROVENANCE OR HISTORICAL RELEVANCE OF THE PROPERTY. No statement in any catalogue, notice or description or made at the sale, in any bill of sale, invoice or elsewhere, shall be deemed such a representation or warranty, expressed or implied, as to where the purchaser acquires any reproduction rights in the property. Prospective bidders should inspect the property before bidding to determine its condition, size and whether or not it has been repaired or restored.

2. Any property may be withdrawn by JPFA at any time before the actual sale without any liability therefore.

3. JPFA 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 the sole and final discretion either to determine the successful bidder or the article of dispute. If any dispute arises after the sale, JPFA's sale records shall be conclusive in all respects.

4. 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 sale, and if, having acknowledged an opening bid, he decides that any advance thereafter is insufficient, he may reject the advance.

5. On the fall of the auctioneer's hammer, the highest bidder shall be deemed to have purchased the offered lot subject to all the conditions set forth herein and thereupon (a) assumes the risk and responsibility thereof (including without limitation damage to frames or glass the covering prints), (b) will sign a confirmation of purchase thereof and (c) will pay the full purchase stamp thereof or such part as JPFA may require. All property shall be removed from JPFA's premises by the purchaser at his expense no later than three days following its sale and, if not so removed, will be sent by JPFA at the expense of the purchaser to a public warehouse for the account, risk and expense of the purchaser and such added charges will then be added to the purchase price of the object.

If the foregoing conditions and other applicable conditions are not complied with, in addition to other remedies available to JPFA by law, including, without limitation, the right to hold the purchaser liable for the bid price, JPFA at their option, may either (a) cancel the sale, or (b) resell the property on three days notice to the purchaser and for the account and risk of the purchaser, either publicly or privately, and in such event the purchaser shall be liable for payment of any deficiency, all other charges due hereunder and incidental damages.

6. [Any checks should be payable to " Joseph Papp Children’s Humanitarian Fund ".]

7. In the case of order bids or bids transmitted by telephone, JPFA is not responsible for any errors or omissions in connection with such bids.
