The auctioneer has the right to reject any bid and to advance the bidding at his/her absolute discretion and, in the event of any dispute between bidders, to determine the successful bidder or to re-offer and resell the article in dispute. Should there be any dispute after the sale, the auctioneer’s record of final sale shall be conclusive. 5. Absentee bids will be accepted by mail, telephone, email, or in person.

These estimates are the approximate prices we expect to be realized. They are not definitive. The bidding begins below the listed prices. The Auctioneer will use the following increments: $200-1,000 $50 increments $1,000-2,000 $100 increments $2,000-5,000 $200 increments $5,000 and above $500 increments The name listed at the top of each lot indicates the artist who, in our best judgment, is the author of the work. (No unqualified statement regarding authorship is made or intended.) When one date is given it refers to the date of the negative from which the print was made in the same year or soon thereafter. Some prints show two dates, the first referring to the negative and the second to the print. When the print date is unknown, but assumed later, “printed later” appears following the negative date. Measurements generally refer to image size (sometimes paper size) and are given in inches. The height appears first, followed by the width. All lots with estimated retail values marked by [ ] are offered for sale subject to a reserve, which is the confidential minimum price below which such lot will not be sold. Please note that all statements and terms in this catalog are subject to the provisions of the Conditions of Sale and San Francisco Camerawork makes no warranties or representations with any lot.
