Dan Kotelesthis is close to home and yes ....i will be there tommorrow.
I talked to the family and I talked to the auctioneer, who by the way is a comic expert of sorts and doesn't know that much about cards. He did know about a few Ruths and the 33 Lajoie Goudey.
The issue that I dont understand is for instance lot72 (5) Chance portraits...ok, i asked to be sure....are all to be auctioned as 1 group ?...he said ,the highest bidder will get one, then the rest will all go to the underbidders and you will have to state which one that you want,haa?
I said, so if I want a particular one and Iam outbid on that as long as my bid is higher on any of the other ones ,I will get one of the others as long as it is higher than anyone elses....haa?
I said that's silly and doesn't make sense and it surely doesnt seem that that would be best interest of the consignor. He said that it works.
I'll be there early enough to be explained to better than that !
I will let you's know further when I get back....good evening -dan
