BE-HOLD No. 39 BIDDING DEADLINE: Thursday, April 4, 2002, 9PM (Eastern Time) This is an offering of significant original mostly vintage photographs at auction. The presentation consists of three parts. 1) THE CATALOG. This is the primary presentation, and is the fruit of several months effort to present the material in a sensitively arranged manner that will repay repeated study, even long after the sale is over. This is one of the few sales where the ordering of the material and the relationship between Lots in so carefully attended to. 2) THE WEB SITE. This gives an opportunity to see good scans of individual lots, one at a time, in color. 3) THE PREVIEW. This allows you to examine the items directly. This is an essential part of the presentation and I urge you to take advantage of it. Those who skim the offerings for particular interests don’t realize the quality of what you are skipping over. Frequently those who preview the material end up bidding on lots they had previously overlooked. (We have changed the preview to Thursday - Saturday to make it more convenient to attend.) The catalog text as well as color scans can be viewed on our web site http://www.be-hold.com. There is also opportunity for bidding on line for those who desire. Complete instructions can be found on the site. While the text of the printed catalog is fixed once we go to press, the on-line version can be modified with corrections and additional information, so please consult it if possible as the sale progresses. We don’t charge a Buyer’s Premium. If you appreciate this, bid accordingly. However, we do ask that bidders be subscribers. Normal subscription is $50 for 3 issues plus reports in N. America, $70 elsewhere. See the website for additional options. BIDDING starts as soon as the catalog is received. It may continue after the 9:00 PM deadline on the closing night ONLY FOR THOSE WHO HAVE ALREADY PLACED BIDS BEFORE THE DEAD- LINE. You may bid by phone, FAX, E-mail, or on our site. If you want to bid on line, you must have REGISTERED and left some bids before this deadline. Bidding may continue until contested lots have been decided— until there has been 10 minutes without further bidding. The price listed in the catalog is the MINIMUM BID. All bids must be AT LEAST at this level, in a multiple of $5. A full list of procedures and bidding increments is found on the back of the bid sheet, inside the back cover, and on the web site. Bids at a level higher than the minimum will be bid for you, only as needed to top other actually received bids, up to the level of your maximum. We urge you to take advantage of this. BE-HOLD has a long record of trouble-free management of such bidding. The web site will show you the current bidding level. If you call we will let you know it as well. With the on-line bidding there is now less of a need for “call backs,” but if you have a special need that requires us to call you back we can try to comply. PAYMENT FOR ALL AUCTION INVOICES MUST BE SENT WITHIN 10 DAYS OF RECEIPT! We accept Amex, MasterCard and Visa. If you think you may have a problem sending a check or Money Order in time for us to receive it by this date, then you should give us your Charge Card information. It is expected that many fine lots won’t happen to get Minimum Bids by the end of the auction. Those lots will continue to be available, at the level of that Minimum Bid. The report on the web site will be updated for at least a month with these post-auction sales. page 2 | BE-HOLD | www.be-hold.com
