BID OR HOW MUCH THE BID AMOUNT IS. WE APOLOGIZE FOR ANY CONFUSION CAUSED BY THIS.

Tremont Auctions will be pleased to provide a condition report for any lot on request. Nevertheless,

prospective buyers are reminded that each lot is sold "as is", and their attention is drawn to term #1.

free from wear and tear, imperfections or the effects of aging. Most of the items we sell are OLD and

will have imperfections pursuant to age. We recommend prospective bidders examine all items in which

they have an interest. By placing a bid, either in person, by phone, absentee or via the Internet, you

signify that you have examined the items as fully as you desire to or that you have chosen not to

evaluation leave uncertainty in your mind, we recommend you have an expert examine the lot for you

or DO NOT BID on the item in question. Bidding on these items is acceptance of these terms. 0
