GA037 - Australian, Maritime & Natural History
The catalogue is now online for our forthcoming Australian, Maritime & Natural History auction. The sale will feature items of Australian historical interest and importance including Australian and colonial furniture, paintings, silver and decorative arts and pottery, alongside items of engineering interest, maritime-related artwork and objects and a fascinating selection of scientific and natural history artefacts. Included in the sale is a fantastic pair of carvings by renowned Prussian-born carver, Robert Prenzel (pictured), the most important member of a group of professional carvers working in a distinctly Australian idiom in the first quarter of the 20th century. Other works of art to be offered include an important collection of four watercolour and ink drawings of Indigenous Australians by Henry Gregory Gregory, a Benedictine abbot, who was both a controversial, yet instrumental figure in the establishment of the Catholic Church in Australia and its territories, and a Portrait of Sir John Turner Flynn (Flinn), a high ranking and distinguished officer in the Royal British Navy, turned criminal outcast, sentenced to 'transportation for life'.

Bidding<br />
Gibson’s Auctioneers & Valuers offer four bidding options:<br />
1. Auction Room Bidding<br />
To bid in person we suggest you arrive early so that you<br />
have sufficient time to register for a bidding number prior<br />
to the auction. If this is your first time bidding with Gibson’s<br />
Auctioneers & Valuers please bring photo identification, such<br />
as a driver’s licence or passport with you.<br />
2. Telephone Bidding<br />
Gibson’s Auctioneers & Valuers offer telephone bidding on all<br />
lots, at all auctions.<br />
Telephone Bidding is a convenient solution if you are unable to<br />
attend an auction in person. A Gibson’s Auctioneers & Valuers<br />
staff member will call you approximately 5 lots in advance and<br />
with your instruction, bid on your behalf at the auction.<br />
Please note: Telephone Bids must be organised at least 24<br />
hours prior to the auction and that occasionally, the number<br />
of telephone bidders available may be restricted when the<br />
auction is offsite.<br />
To organise a Telephone Bid please follow the link<br />
to the Telephone Bidding form on our website:<br />
www.gibsonsauctions.com.au.<br />
Please fill in & return via email to mail@gibsonsauctions.com.au<br />

3. Absentee Bids<br />
Absentee Bidding is another convenient solution if you<br />
are unable to attend an auction in person, to speak on the<br />
telephone or if you simply have a strict budget.<br />
An Absentee Bid should be set at the maximum amount<br />
you wish to bid on the lot/s you are interested in purchasing.<br />
Should the lot/s be knocked down at an amount lower than<br />
the bid recorded on your form, the lot will be sold to you for<br />
the lesser hammer price.<br />
Please note Absentee Bids must be received at least 24 hours<br />
prior to the auction to allow time for processing.<br />
To organise an Absentee Bid please follow the link to<br />

Please register for this service at least 24 hours prior to the<br />

A scale model of the Melbourne Shrine of Remembrance,<br />

with brass dedication plate: 'Presented to Preston City<br />
Council in trust for the citizens by the S S & A. F. A' (Soldiers,<br />
Sailors, and Airmen's Fathers Association), comprising<br />
over 350 pieces of assembled wood, coated with sand and<br />
enamel painted<br />
25cm high, 70cm wide and deep (approx)<br />
HISTORY<br />
‘Dad’ Jack Vivian Martin was a carpenter/builder from East<br />
Malvern, a former World War I veteran and the father of an<br />
enlisted son, Jack Stanley Martin. He was described in The<br />
Age, 1944, as Vice President of the Malvern branch of the<br />
Soldiers, Sailors, and Airmen’s Fathers Association (the<br />
Dads’ Association), This model for the citizens of Preston is<br />
one of several made by Martin. He built the models<br />
in his spare time to “serve as a memorial to the<br />
sons of fathers …who have paid the supreme<br />
sacrifice”. Other documented models<br />
include shrines for the S S & A. F. A<br />
of Horsham, The Returned Services League of Benalla,<br />
reputedly Malvern, and for the office of the Agent-General<br />
in London. The latter was ceremoniously presented to the<br />
then Premier of Victoria, Mr Dunstan, before its overseas<br />
exhibition and is now included in the collection of the<br />
Imperial War Museums, London.<br />
The scale models, regarded as ‘sacred gifts’, were presented<br />
in solemn and well attended civic dedication ceremonies.<br />
The Preston model also bears a plaque:<br />
”Let all men know that this is Holy Ground; neither decay or<br />
time shall ruin this shrine, for it is built not only of stone but<br />
also in the hearts of men; therefore instead of tears give<br />
remembrance instead of pity praise. The sacrifice of a nation<br />
lies here.”<br />
The S.S. & A.F.A was formed during The Great War under<br />
a slightly different name and had branches in most states.<br />
The ‘dads’ were active lobbyists, raising funds for the<br />
building of memorials and committed to returned<br />
veterans’ rights.<br />

John William Lindt (1845-1926)<br />
Born in Frankfurt-on-Main, Germany, John William Lindt, son<br />
of a customs officer, received a thorough education with a<br />
promising and illustrious future ahead of him. His appetite for<br />
adventure drifted away from a traditional scholarly course. At<br />
seventeen, he ran away from home on board a Danish vessel<br />
en route to Australia. The voyage passed through the islands<br />
of New Guinea. Witnessing the native habitants of the islands<br />
was a formative experience for the young photographer,<br />
igniting a lifetime interest in anthropology. Lindt jumped ship<br />
at the Brisbane port and ventured into the outback, where<br />
he made a decent living in tuning and repairing pianos for<br />
Queensland homesteads.<br />
Restless and eager to explore, Lindt travelled further south,<br />
landing in Grafton, New South Wales. He took an assistant<br />
role under the local photographer Wagner where he<br />
eventually bought the studio outright in 1968. Lindt made<br />
the acquaintance of the Italian naturalist and explorer Signor<br />
D’Albertis, who happened to be convalescing in the area<br />
around 1873. This friendship reinforced the photographer's<br />
anthropological aptitude. The photographs produced during<br />
this time are some of the most captivating images of the<br />
artist’s oeuvre.<br />
The locality allowed Lindt to observe the customs and<br />
traditions of the Indigenous people from the Bundjalung,<br />
Gumbaynggirr and Yaegl nations, one of the few accessible<br />
and relatively unaltered communities in the region. The<br />
portraits made here of the traditional owners were<br />
engineered with Lindt’s germanic thoughtfulness for<br />
aesthetic composition while simultaneously attempting to<br />
document cultural artefacts particular to each sitter. He<br />
staged the portraits in the studio, influenced by the nature<br />
of the Wet Collodion process. This laboursome process<br />
required the glass plates to be exposed and developed<br />
before the surface dried and was not readily portable.<br />
Lindt’s photographs captured the volatile landscape and<br />
culture of colonial Australia, carrying an immeasurable<br />
value in the documentation of this period. His works are<br />
universally esteemed and enrich museum and gallery<br />
collections worldwide.

Henry Gregory Gregory (1813-1877) born in Cheltenham,<br />
England was educated at Douai and Downside Monastery<br />
and subsequently entered the order in 1833. He travelled<br />
to Australia in 1835 with first appointed Bishop of Australia,<br />
John Bede Polding. It was great privilege for the young<br />
Gregory to accompany the Bishop, performing the duty<br />
of catechist as he was not yet fully ordained. The following<br />
year Gregory spent some time in Norfolk Island as assistant<br />
chaplain and showed fortitude during a mutiny there.<br />
They returned to Rome, allowing Gregory to complete his<br />
doctorate in divinity, bolstering his position in the order and<br />
preparing the young monk for great responsibilities in the<br />
colony. They sailed back to Sydney in 1843, under Poldings<br />
guidance and encouragement Gregory was ordained Prior<br />
and later Abbot of St Mary’s Abbey, Sydney.<br />
The Irish Catholics had a strong foothold in the colony and<br />
did not take fondly to Gregory or Poldings interference.<br />
Gregory was ordained vicar-general to Polding in 1844.<br />
At the age of 30 Gregory did not possess the diplomatic<br />
complexities required to unite the clergy and laity. Following<br />
numerous complaints from monks, clergy and laity in<br />
Sydney, Gregory was recalled and left Sydney in February<br />
1861. He was later exonerated by the Vatican, but decided to<br />
remain in England for the remainder of his life.<br />

John Turner Flinn, born in Devon, England, in 1791, had<br />
five children through marriage to Edwardina Augusta Kent,<br />
a lady of misty origins rumoured to be Queen Caroline's<br />
illegitimate daughter. Serving 39 years in the regiment of<br />
the Royal British Navy, Flinn was widely acknowledged by<br />
his peers as a brave and gallant officer, rising to the position<br />
of 1st Lieutenant. His active service was eventful; receiving<br />
a gunshot wound to the neck during a skirmish with the<br />
French, fighting in the Napoleonic wars, and reportedly<br />
acting as a covert government agent. Most notably, Flinn<br />
entered the service of Queen Caroline during her period of<br />
exile from Britain as commander of her yacht around the<br />
Mediterranean. 1 His society with the Queen is illustrated<br />
in several politicised caricatures (published by George<br />
Humphrey for the press during the trial of her alleged<br />
adultery). After Queen Caroline's death, Flinn was an agent<br />
to Count Ludolph in obtaining foreign prize-money and<br />
also a prize-agent in Britain. 2 His task was hunting down<br />
marines who had unclaimed prize money from foreign<br />
warfare for a commission of 2%. It was a lucrative and<br />
respectable venture for a man of Flinn’s status, however the<br />
temptation to defraud the system would ultimately lead to<br />
his transportation to Australia.<br />
Flinn continued the work as a prize-agent even though his<br />
official license elapsed in 1835. He had entered into an<br />
agreement with William Holgate, a clerk from the Chelsea<br />
Hospital (where prize funds were distributed). For a small fee,<br />
Holgate would provide Flinn with officers’ names and prize<br />
amounts owing, giving him an edge above other competing<br />
agents. Flinn concocted a scheme to misappropriate a large<br />
sum of winnings on behalf of deceased soldier George<br />
Langley. Despite Flinn's condition in life and high society,<br />
an amount of over 177 pounds was incredibly enticing. A<br />
series of cunningly forged letters were all that was required<br />
for him to obtain the entire sum. The transaction did not<br />
go unnoticed by the authorities, however. Investigations<br />
uncovered the deceit and pointed to Flinn as the main<br />
perpetrator. On 28th May 1840, the Crown indicted Flinn for<br />
forgery at The Central Criminal Court, Old Bailey, London.<br />
The evidence and witness statements were incriminating<br />
and Flinn was sentenced to transportation for life. He<br />
narrowly escaped capital punishment with the help of several<br />
petitions from high-ranking naval officers and consideration<br />
of exemplary service to the navy.<br />
At the age of 50, Flinn arrived at Port Arthur aboard the Lord<br />
Lyndoch on the 5th February in 1841. The ship's Surgeon<br />
reported Flinn’s conduct during the voyage as ‘most<br />
excellent’, endorsing him to the guards and progressing<br />
his chances of a conditional pardon. Flinn's naval history<br />
provided additional buffering from the harsher elements of<br />
convict life. In 1843, the Lieutenant-Governor assigned Flinn<br />
the coveted position of Javelin man in Hobart Gaol. Javelin<br />
men guarded the prisons around the colony equipped with<br />
long poles topped with an axe blade or spike. He had a few<br />
stints of hard labour and solitary confinement after drunken<br />
disorderly behaviour however kept a relatively clean record<br />
otherwise. He assisted with two instances of fires breaking<br />
out in the town and received a redeeming review in The<br />
Hobart Town Advertiser and The Cornwall Chronicles. Flinn<br />
was thus awarded a Ticket-to-leave in 1845 for meritorious<br />
conduct. Two of Flinn's sons relocated to Australia from<br />
Britain circa 1851 to join him. He eventually received a full<br />
pardon on the 26th of March 1861. Four years later Flinn<br />
died at age 78 in Melbourne.<br />
This rare portrait of John Turner Flinn presents a unique<br />
opportunity for a collector to preserve an intriguing piece<br />
of <strong>Australian</strong> convict history. This painting has survived in<br />
the spirit of the sitter, a little weathered but still deserving of<br />
restoration to its former splendor.<br />

2. Gibson’s Auctioneers & Valuers<br />
as Agent<br />
Except as otherwise stated Gibson's acts as agent<br />
for the Seller.<br />
The contract for the Sale of the property is therefore<br />
made between the Seller and the Buyer.<br />
3. Before the Sale<br />
A) EXAMINATION OF PROPERTY<br />
Prospective Buyers are strongly advised to examine<br />
in person any property in which they are interested<br />
before the Auction takes place. Neither Gibson's<br />
nor the Seller provides any guarantee in relation to<br />
the nature of the property apart from the Limited<br />
Warranty in the paragraph below. The property is<br />
otherwise sold “as is”.<br />
B) CATALOGUE AND OTHER DESCRIPTIONS<br />
All statements by Gibson's in the catalogue entry for<br />
the property or in the condition report, or made orally<br />
or in writing elsewhere, are statements of opinion<br />
and are not to be relied upon as statements of fact.<br />
Such statements do not constitute a representation,<br />
warranty or assumption of liability by Gibson's of<br />
any kind. References in the catalogue entry to the<br />
condition report, including damage or restoration<br />
are for guidance only and should be evaluated by<br />
personal inspection by the Bidder or a knowledgeable<br />
representative. The absence of such a reference<br />
does not imply that an item is free from defects or<br />
restoration, nor does a reference to particular defects<br />
imply the absence of any others. Estimates of the<br />
selling price should not be relied on as a statement<br />
that this is the price at which the item will sell or its<br />
value for any other purpose. Neither Gibson's nor the<br />
Seller is responsible for any errors or omissions in the<br />
catalogue or any supplemental material.<br />
Images are measured height by width. Illustrations<br />
are provided only as a guide and should not be relied<br />
upon as a true representation of colour or condition.<br />
Images are not shown at a standard scale. Mention<br />
is rarely made of frames (which may be provided as<br />
supplementary images on the website) which do<br />
not form part of the Lot as described in the printed<br />
catalogue.<br />
All transactions are in <strong>Australian</strong> Dollars so there<br />
may be a small exchange rate risk, for international<br />
Buyers. The costs associated with acquiring a goods<br />
certificate will be borne by the Buyer. If the item<br />
turns out to be a Forgery or otherwise incorrectly<br />
described, all reasonable costs will be borne by the<br />
Seller.<br />
C) BUYER'S RESPONSIBILITY<br />
All property is sold “as is” without representation or<br />
warranty of any kind by Gibson's or the Seller. Buyers<br />
are responsible for satisfying themselves concerning<br />
the condition of the property and the matters referred<br />
to in the catalogue by requesting a condition report.<br />
4. At the Sale<br />
A) REFUSAL OF ADMISSION<br />
Gibson's reserves the right at our complete discretion<br />
to refuse admission to the Auction premises or<br />
participation in any Auction and to reject any Bid.<br />
B) REGISTRATION BEFORE BIDDING<br />
Any new Prospective Buyer must complete and<br />
sign a registration form and provide photographic<br />
identification before Bidding. Gibson's may<br />
request bank, trade or other financial references to<br />
substantiate this registration.<br />
C) BIDDING AS A PRINCIPAL<br />
When making a Bid, a Bidder is accepting personal<br />
liability to pay the purchase price including the<br />
Buyer's Premium and all applicable taxes, plus<br />
all other applicable charges, unless it has been<br />
explicitly agreed in writing with Gibson's before<br />
the commencement of the Sale that the Bidder is<br />
acting as agent on behalf of an identified third party<br />
acceptable to Gibson's and that Gibson's will only<br />
look to the principal for payment.<br />
D) INTERNATIONAL REGISTRATIONS<br />
All international clients not known to Gibson's will<br />
be required to scan or fax through an accredited<br />
form of photo identification and pay a deposit at our<br />
discretion in cleared funds into Gibson's account<br />
at least 48 hours before the commencement of<br />
the Auction. Bids will not be accepted without<br />
this deposit. Gibson's also reserves the right to<br />
request any additional forms of identification prior<br />
to registering an overseas Bid. This deposit can be<br />
made using a credit card, however the balance of<br />
any purchase price in excess of $5,000 cannot be<br />
charged to this card without prior arrangement. This<br />
deposit is redeemable against any Auction purchase.<br />
E) ABSENTEE BIDS<br />
Gibson's will use reasonable efforts to execute written<br />
Bids delivered to us at least 24 hours prior to the<br />
Sale for the convenience of those clients who are<br />
unable to attend the Auction in person. If Gibson's<br />
receives identical written Bids on a particular Lot, and<br />
at the Auction these are the highest Bids on that Lot,<br />
then the Lot will be sold to the person whose written<br />
Bid was received and accepted first. Execution of<br />
written Bids is a free service undertaken subject to<br />
other commitments at the time of the Sale and we<br />
do not accept liability for failing to execute a written<br />
Bid or for errors or omissions which may arise. It is<br />
the Bidder’s responsibility to check with Gibson's<br />
after the Auction if they were successful. Unlimited<br />
or “Buy” Bids will not be accepted. Please refer to our<br />
indicative Bidding increments below for appropriate<br />
absentee Bid amounts (Section K).<br />
F) TELEPHONE BIDS<br />
Priority will be given to overseas and interstate<br />
Bidders. Arrangements for this service must be<br />
confirmed at least 24 hours prior to the Auction<br />
commencing. Gibson's accepts no responsibility<br />
whatsoever for any errors or failure to execute Bids.<br />
In telephone Bidding the Buyer agrees to be bound<br />
by all terms and conditions listed here and accepts<br />
that Gibson's cannot be held responsible for any<br />
miscommunications in the process. The success<br />
of telephone Bidding cannot be guaranteed due to<br />
circumstances that are unforeseen. Buyers should<br />
be aware of the risk and accept the consequences<br />
should contact be unsuccessful at the time of<br />
Auction. You must advise Gibson's of the Lots in<br />
question and recommend a ‘Cover Bid’ amount<br />
should there be any issues with technology or<br />
communication via the telephone number provided.<br />
Gibson's will advise Telephone Bidders who have<br />
registered at least 24 hours before the Auction of any<br />
relevant changes to descriptions, withdrawals or any<br />
other Sale room notices.<br />
G) ONLINE BIDDING<br />
Gibson's accepts no responsibility for any<br />
errors, failure to execute Bids or any other<br />
miscommunications regarding this process. It is the<br />
online Bidder’s responsibility to ensure the accuracy<br />
of the relevant information regarding Bids, Lot<br />
numbers and contact details.
127<br />
H) RESERVES<br />
Unless otherwise indicated, all Lots are offered<br />
subject to a Reserve, which is the confidential<br />
minimum price below which the Lot will not be sold.<br />
The Reserve will not exceed the low estimate printed<br />
in the catalogue. The Auctioneer may open the<br />
Bidding on any Lot below the Reserve by placing<br />
a Bid on behalf of the Seller. The Auctioneer may<br />
continue to Bid on behalf of Seller up to the amount<br />
of the Reserve, either by placing consecutive Bids or<br />
by placing Bids in response to other Bidders.<br />
I) AUCTIONEER'S DISCRETION<br />
The Auctioneer has the right at his absolute and sole<br />
discretion to refuse any Bid, to advance the Bidding<br />
in such a manner as he may decide, to withdraw or<br />
divide any Lot, to combine any two or more Lots and,<br />
in the case or error or dispute and whether during or<br />
after the Sale, to determine the successful Bidder, to<br />
continue the Bidding, to cancel the Sale or to re-offer<br />
and resell the item in dispute. In the event of a dispute,<br />
or the Auctioneer or the Company is of the opinion<br />
that there has been a misunderstanding or mistake<br />
regarding a Sale or a Lot the subject of a Sale, the<br />
Auctioneer may rescind the Sale and put any Lot<br />
up for a Second Auction. If a Sale is rescinded, the<br />
Company may put the Lot up at a second Auction,<br />
offer the Lot for sale by private treaty or withdraw the<br />
Lot from sale entirely.<br />
J) SUCCESSFUL BID AND PASSING OF RISK<br />
Subject to the Auctioneer’s discretion, on the<br />
acceptance of a Bid by the fall of the Auctioneer's<br />
hammer, a contract of sale is made between the<br />
Seller and the Buyer. Risk and responsibility for the<br />
Lot (including frames or glass where relevant) passes<br />
immediately to the Buyer. Gibson's shall not be liable<br />
for any breach of contract by either the Seller or<br />
the Buyer.<br />
K) INDICATIVE BIDDING STEPS, ETC.<br />
Gibson's reserves the right to refuse any Bid,<br />
withdraw any Lot from Sale, to place a Reserve on<br />
any Lot and to advance the Bidding according to<br />
the following:<br />

the Hammer Price, Buyer's Premium and any<br />

days after the Auction date.<br />
The Buyer will not acquire title for the Lot until<br />

This applies even if the Buyer wishes to send items<br />

D) COLLECTION OF PURCHASES & INSURANCE<br />
Gibson's is entitled to retain items sold until all<br />
amounts due to us have been received in full in good<br />
cleared funds. Subject to this, the Buyer shall collect<br />
purchased Lots within three (3) days from the date of<br />
the Sale unless otherwise agreed in writing between<br />
Gibson's and the Buyer.<br />
At the fall of the hammer, insurance is the<br />
responsibility of the purchaser.<br />
E) PACKING, HANDLING AND SHIPPING<br />
At the request of the Buyer, Gibson's may assist with<br />
packing of goods but takes no responsibility for loss,<br />
damage or breakage that may occur. Gibson's at the<br />
request of the Buyer may arrange for a carrier, packer<br />
or shipper to have the property packed, insured and<br />
shipped at the Buyer’s expense. All packing, shipping,<br />
insurance, postage & associated charges will be<br />
borne by the purchaser. Gibson's can assist with<br />
removal companies that the Buyer can use but takes<br />
no responsibility whatsoever for the actions of any<br />
recommended third party.<br />
F) CULTURAL HERITAGE EXPORT LICENCES<br />
Unless otherwise agreed by Gibson's in writing, the<br />
fact that the Buyer wishes to apply for an export<br />
licence does not affect their obligation to make full<br />
payment immediately, nor Gibson's right to charge<br />
interest or storage charges on late payment. It is<br />
the responsibility of the Buyer to check Australia’s<br />
Protection of Moveable Cultural Heritage Act 1986<br />
prior to purchase. Export/import licences applications<br />
are the responsibility of the Buyer and/or the Buyer's<br />
nominated shipper. Gibson's shall not be obliged to<br />
rescind a Sale nor to refund any expenses incurred by<br />
the Buyer in circumstances where an export licence<br />
is not granted.<br />
G) REMEDIES FOR NON-PAYMENT<br />
If the Buyer fails to make full payment immediately,<br />
Gibson's is entitled to exercise one or more of the<br />
following rights or remedies (in addition to asserting<br />
any other rights or remedies available under the law)<br />
i) to charge interest at the ANZ visa credit card<br />
rate as published weekly in the <strong>Australian</strong><br />
Financial Review;<br />
ii)<br />
iii)<br />
iv)<br />
to hold the defaulting Buyer liable for the<br />
total amount due and to commence legal<br />
proceedings for its recovery along with interest,<br />
legal fees and costs to the fullest extent<br />
permitted under applicable law;<br />
to cancel the Sale;<br />
to resell the property publicly or privately on<br />
such terms as the Company sees fit;<br />
v) to pay the Seller an amount up to the net<br />
proceeds payable in respect of the amount Bid<br />
by the defaulting Buyer. In these circumstances<br />
the defaulting Buyer can have no claim upon<br />
Gibson's in the event that the Lot(s) are sold for<br />
an amount greater than the original invoiced<br />
amount;<br />
vi)<br />
to offset against any amounts which Gibson's<br />
may owe the Buyer across any other<br />
transactions;<br />
viii) to reject at any future Auction any Bids made by<br />
or on behalf of the Buyer or to obtain a deposit<br />
from the Buyer prior to accepting any Bids;<br />
ix)<br />
to exercise all the rights and remedies of a<br />
person holding security over any property in<br />
our possession owned by the Buyer whether by<br />
way of pledge, security interest or in any other<br />
way, to the fullest extent permitted by the law of<br />
the place where such property is located. The<br />
Buyer will be deemed to have been granted such<br />
security to us and we may retain such property<br />
as collateral security for such Buyer’s obligations<br />
to the Company;<br />
x) to take such other action as the Company<br />
deems necessary or appropriate.<br />
H) FAILURE TO COLLECT PURCHASES<br />
Where purchases are not collected within three (3)<br />
days from the Sale date, whether or not payment has<br />
been made, the Company shall be permitted to:<br />
i) remove, store and further insure the Lot at the<br />
expense of the Buyer, releasing only after full<br />
payment has been received from the Buyer for<br />
incurred costs;<br />
ii)<br />
iii)<br />
re-sell the Lot without Reserve by Auction,<br />
private treaty or any other means whereby the<br />
Buyer agrees not to challenge the resale price<br />
achieved.<br />
rescind the Sale of that Lot or any other Lot sold<br />
by the Seller to the Buyer at the same or any<br />
other Auction.<br />
If Gibson's do re-sell the property under clauses H<br />
and G, the defaulting Buyer agrees to be liable for<br />
all payments of any deficiency between the total<br />
amount originally due and the price obtained, as well<br />
as the legal as all costs, expenses, damages, legal<br />
fees, commissions and premiums of whatever kinds<br />
associated with both Sales or otherwise arising from<br />
the default.<br />
6. Extent of Gibson's Liability<br />
Gibson's agrees to refund the purchase price in the<br />
circumstances of the Limited Warranty set out in<br />
paragraph 7. Apart from that, neither the Seller nor<br />
the Company, nor any of the Company’s employees<br />
or agents are responsible for the correctness of<br />
any statement of whatever kind concerning any Lot,<br />
whether written or oral, nor for any other errors or<br />
omissions in description or for any faults or defects<br />
in any Lots. Except as stated in paragraph 7 below,<br />
neither the Seller, the Company, its officers, agents<br />
or employees give any representation warranty
128<br />
or guarantee or assume any liability of any kind in<br />
respect of any Lot with regard to merchantability,<br />
fitness for a particular purpose, description, size,<br />
quality, condition, attribution, authenticity, rarity,<br />
importance, medium, provenance, exhibition history,<br />
literature or historical relevance. Except as required<br />
by local law any warranty of any kind is excluded by<br />
this paragraph.<br />
7. Limited Warranty<br />
Subject to the terms and conditions of this<br />
paragraph, the warrants for the period of fourteen<br />
(14) days from the date of the Sale that any property<br />
described in this catalogue (noting such description<br />
may be amended by any Saleroom notice or<br />
announcement) which is stated without qualification<br />
to be the work of a named author or authorship is<br />
authentic and not a forgery. The term “Author” or<br />
“Authorship” refers to the creator of the property or<br />
to the period, culture, source, or origin as the case<br />
may be, with which the creation of such property is<br />
identified in the catalogue.<br />
The warranty is subject to the following:<br />
i) it does not apply where a) the catalogue<br />
description or Saleroom notice corresponded<br />
to the generally accepted opinion of scholars<br />
and experts at the date of the Sale or fairly<br />
indicated that there was a conflict of opinions,<br />
or b) correct identification of a Lot can be<br />
demonstrated only by means of a scientific<br />
process not generally accepted for use until<br />
after publication of the catalogue or a process<br />
which at the date of the publication of the<br />
catalogue was unreasonably expensive or<br />
impractical or likely to have caused damage to<br />
the property.<br />
ii)<br />
iii)<br />
iv)<br />
the benefits of the warranty are not assignable<br />

15. Jewels & Watches<br />
GEMSTONES<br />
Gemstones have historically been subjected to a<br />
variety of treatments to enhance their appearance.<br />
Sapphire and rubies are routinely heat treated to<br />
improve their colour and clarity, similarly emeralds<br />
are frequently treated with oils or resin for the same<br />
purpose. Other treatments such as staining or dyeing,<br />
irradiation, filling or coating may have been used<br />
on other precious and semi-precious gemstones<br />
and organic material. These treatments may be<br />
permanent, whilst others may need special care to<br />
reserve their appearance. Buyers should assume that<br />
each Lot has been subject to some form of treatment<br />
and that the estimates reflect this.<br />
A number of laboratories issue certificates that give<br />
detailed descriptions of gemstones, and in the event<br />
that Gibson's has been supplied with or obtained<br />
certificates for any Lot, this shall be noted in the<br />
catalogue. However, as there may not be consensus<br />
between different laboratories on the degree, or<br />
types of treatment of the gemstones, Gibson's<br />
supplies these without warranty.<br />
Buyers should assume that all gemstones sold<br />
by Gibson's may have been subjected to such<br />
treatments, and that the catalogue estimates reflect<br />
this.<br />
PEARLS<br />
Pearls, like gemstones, are also subject to various<br />
treatments. Buyers should assume that any pearls<br />
sold by Gibson's may have been subjected to such<br />
treatments, and that the catalogue estimates reflect<br />
this.<br />
WATCHES<br />
Please note: All watches sold by Gibson's are sold on<br />
an “as is” basis. Gibson's makes no representation<br />
or warranty that any watch is in working order. Many<br />
watches have been repaired over their lifetime and<br />
may contain non-original parts. The absence of any<br />
reference to the condition of a watch does not imply<br />
that the Lot is in good condition and without defects,<br />
repairs or restorations. Buyers should be aware that<br />
a general service, change of battery or further repair<br />
work, for which the Buyer is solely responsible for,<br />
may be necessary.<br />
ESTIMATED WEIGHTS<br />
If a stone has a known weight, it has been weighed<br />
out of the mount. If a stone has an estimated weight,<br />
it is an approximate weight only and has been<br />
measured by us in the mount and is a statement of<br />
opinion only. The information is given as a guide only<br />
and Buyers should satisfy themselves with regard to<br />
this information as to its accuracy.
