INFORMATION FOR BUYERS
1. 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. Buyer’s Premium. The Conditions of Sale oblige buyers to pay a buyer’s premium at 25.2% inclusive of VAT on the hammer
price of each lot purchased.
5. VAT. (†) 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 Dealers Margin Scheme or because VAT is due at 20% on importation into the UK. The
double symbol (**) indicates 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 (i.e. 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. Condition 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 form inspection of goods and neither the seller nor 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 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 providing 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. 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 importing goods of that character because, e.g. they may contain prohibited materials such as
ivory. Ask us if you need help.
9. 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.
10. 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. Commission bids should be left with
us before an auction starts. Please enquire in advance about our arrangements for the leaving of commission bids by telephone or
Email.
11. 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). We accept card
payments provided that your registered address is the same as the card address. There is a surcharge of 2.5% plus VAT on credit
cards but no charge on debit cards.
12. 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 may involve the buyer in paying storage charges which are currently set at £5 plus VAT
per lot per day.
13. Artist Resale Right. Buyers of lots executed by qualifying artists are subject to ARR payments which will be added to the
purchaser’s invoice. Where possible such lots are marked in the catalogue with §. The charge will be applied only where the
hammer price exceeds 1,000 Euros and will be a maximum of 4%, for full details visit www.dacs.org.uk or telephone

John Betjeman in memory of the

Edition, with dust jacket . Not Price
Clipped. Michael Tree (illustrator).
First Edition/First Printing. described
as an edition of 125 but this copy is
not numbered, Coolgreena was the
house where Kathleen and her sister
Nell spent their summer holidays in
Trebetherick and where JB would often
have joined the family on the beach and
for treasure hunts, dances and tennis
parties.
1017
1017John Betjeman (1906-1984): signed letter, Summoned by
Bells signed first edition, signed cards and a signed poem
1. Signed letter. Handwritten two-sided letter from Treen,
Trebetherick, 19.3.62, My dear Phoebe, I arrived here last
night for a short holiday and was saddened to hear of your
mother’s {Kathleen Stokes} death. She had written to me last
year enquiring about accommodation in one of our Mutual
Household houses. I enquired about them and found that their
finances were not all that would be desired and then I heard
that she had had that accident so I did not bother to write. I’m
glad I didn’t because I did not want to worry her. Last night
I went and saw your Aunt Nell and Joan and Rea {Nell’s
daughter and son-in-law} were there. They told me how your
mother was looking forward to leaving this world and to
seeing your father again. (he had died in1910); What a happy
state to be in at one’s end. I hope ours will be as composed
and full of faith. She was such a good person it is not really
surprising and you and Allen and your Harry were always
so kind to her. She always had a gossip with me over a gin
and dish of nuts about you and Allen and her grandchildren
and there’s no doubt you all made her very happy. I don’t
think there was anyone in this place who had so many friends
and was so much loved as she was. I’d like you to know
how much I miss her too and can in a degree sympathise
with you and Allen (to whom I have written) in suddenly
finding yourselves orphans. One feels very much alone. but
the parting is, please God, only temporary, Love to you and
Harry, Yours John See biographical notes below.
2. Signed and typed poem ‘In Memoriam’ the manuscript is
of an original poem written in 1962 in memory of three of his
friends AC RJO KS The KS being Kathleen Stokes. “Where’s
Kathleen Stokes with her Sealyhams”; the other two are Anne
Channel and Roland Oakley.
Note Kathleen was also mentioned in his poem “North Coast
Recollections”
“Within the bungalow of Mrs Hanks (Kathleen Stokes)
Her daughter Phoebe now French-chalks the floor “The
bungalow was Coolgreena (see below).
3. John Betjeman: ‘Summoned by Bells’, signed and
inscribed by the author, “for Phoebe with the affection of
4. An undated thank you note from
Betjeman from 43 Cloth Fair EC1
to Phoebe and Harry signed with love
5. Four Christmas cards from Betjeman
to Phoebe and Harry all signed, one
inscribed “and can’t be bothered to
sign his name legibly? No too grand.”
and another, “Let dogs delight to bark
and bite in Effingham all day, the cats
round here ?? loud and clear, oh send
them all away.” Phoebe and Harry lived
in Effingham and she bred Sealyham
terriers.
Biographical notes; John Betchman
had an abiding and life long love of
Trebetherick in Cornwall. He died there
in at his house, Treen in 1984, aged
77 and is buried close by at St Enodoc
Church.
Nell Oakley and Kathleen Stokes were
sisters and first went to Trebetherick in
1919 with their children for the summer
holidays. Nell rented St Enodoc cottage
for six weeks in the summer holidays
from 1919 which were spent with
her children Roland and Joan and her
sister Kathleen Stokes and her two
children. She rented the cottage more
or less until 1934 when her husband
John Oakley died. She built Whitebays
in 1935 and moved permanently to
Trebetherick. During this time Kathleen
also either owned or rented Coolgreena
because it could sleep seventeen when
all the extended family were staying.
Kathleen built Pauntley in 1938 and
lived in Trebetherick until her death in
1962. Kathleens’ children were Allen
and Phoebe and the vendor of this lot
is Phoebe’s daughter and therefore
Kathleen Stokes’s granddaughter

solely your responsibility.

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 .

charge. The copyright in respect of such illustrations
shall be the property of us, the auctioneers, as is the text
of the catalogue.
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.
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 “discretion” we may accept a bid of
up to 20% below the formal reserve.
11. Unsold lots and withdrawn items If an item is unsold
it may with your consent be re-offered at a future sale
(see point 14b relating to authority to sell below). Where
in our opinion an item is unsaleable, you must re-collect
such items from the saleroom promptly on being so
informed. Otherwise, storage charged may be incurred.
We reserve the right to charge for storage in these
circumstances at a reasonable daily rate.

incur a charge of 10% of the mid sale estimate plus VAT
on being bought in or withdrawn after being catalogued.

(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-
GENERAL
16.
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
(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.

Common roundabout then follow directions as above.
EWBANK AUCTIONEERS
In 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 of 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 20,000
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.
