Handbags
By the classic definition a handbag is a small bag, with or
without a strap or handle, used by women to carry personal
items such as keys, money, and cosmetics. It is also known
as, or called, a purse. These handbags, however, defy all
definition. Ranging in size from large to small, designed
by well-known designers such as Celine, Hogan, Coach,
Chanel, and Kidrobot and crafted of materials from leather
to metal to silk, these bags are not defined by ordinary
standards. Rather, these bags are defined by the women
who once owned them. Women who are celebrities and
socialites in Hollywood. Our newest addition to the auction
line-up, the Hollywood, Celebrity and Society Handbags
Collection features handbags that have been carefully
selected by their famous owners and donated to The
Race To Erase MS so that we may present them to you for
auction. Stars such as Scarlett Johansson, Nicole Richie and
Sarah Jessica Parker, known for their fashion flair, are often

The RACE To Erase MS Gala at the Hyatt Regency

to help locate items and to help with bidding.
2. Auction merchandise is displayed in the same
categories as they appear in the Auction Journal.
3. The Silent Auction BEGINS promptly at 6:30 p.m.
May 7, 2010 and the Silent Auction will be CLOSED at
8:30 p.m. according to the official Auction clock. The
closing bid will be certified by an Auction Official and
constitutes the winning bid.
4. In addition to the Silent Auction there will be a special
Live Auction. Live Auction items are featured in the
beginning of this Catalogue.
5. In the event of a contested item, the last two
individuals appearing on the bid sheet may participate
in a “bid-off” conducted at the table at the time of
closing. Bidders must be present at the table in the
event of a bid-off. An Auction Official will conduct the
bid-off. His or her decision shall be final.
6. All items in the Silent Auction have bid sheets affixed
nearby. The bidder must print their name, table
number, phone number(s), assigned bidder number
and bid amount on the bid sheet.
7. Bid increases must be for at least the amount of the
indicated minimum raise per item. Bids are to be
raised in increments of $10.00 for items of minimum
bid value under $500.00, $25.00 for items of minimum
bid value $500.00 and over, $50.00 for items of
minimum bid value $1,000.00 and over, $100.00 for
items of minimum bid value $5,000.00 and over.
8. New bids must be written on the topmost blank
available. Once a bid sheet is signed by the successful
bidder it is deemed binding. All sales are final and
there will be no refunds.
9. Every effort will be made to notify winners the evening
of the event or directly thereafter. Winners may take
their item the night of the event only by exhibiting a
“paid receipt” at the time of departure. Auction items
not removed the evening of the Auction must be picked
up at the Hyatt Regency Century Plaza on May 8, 2010
between the hours of 10am and 2pm. Any items not
picked up at the hotel on the weekend of the event
must be picked up at the Nancy Davis Foundation
Office. It is the responsibility of the winning bidder to
ship any purchased items if they are too large to take
the night of the Race to Erase MS.
10. All items must be paid for by cash, check, Visa,
MasterCard or American Express at The Race To Erase
MS Gala the evening of Friday, May 7, 2010, unless

over $5,000 be paid for by check or cash.
11. Guests of The Race To Erase MS, as well as those not
attending, are invited to bid by mail for Silent Auction
items. Mail-in bids should be on the form provided
and must be postmarked no later than May 1, 2010.
Mail-in bids will be transferred to bid sheets prior to
the Auction night. Purchase is not guaranteed, as The
Race To Erase MS guests must have the opportunity to
bid.
12. Purchasers of items through mail-in bids will be
notified by May 13, 2010. All sales are final and there
will be no refunds, as mail-in bid forms are binding.
Explanation of payment procedure is given upon win.
13. Reservations for all trips must be mutually arranged
with the donor. All trip dates are subject to availability
and do not include any incidental charges or resort
fees.

correctly, however items are sold “as is”. The Auction
Committee neither warrants nor represents, and
shall in no event be responsible for the correctness of
description, or genuineness, authorship, provenance or
condition of the items or quality of services rendered.
No statement contained in the Catalogue or made
orally at the Auction or elsewhere shall be deemed to
be such a warranty, representation or assumption of
liability.
