MEMORABILIA SOCIETY

POSTAL AUCTION

CLOSING AT NOON 5th NOVEMBER 2020

Conditions of Postal Sale

The CMS reserves the right to refuse items which are damaged or unsuitable, or we have doubts about authenticity.

Reserves can be placed on lots but must be agreed with the CMS. They should reflect realistic values/expectations and not be the “highest price” expected. The CMS will take 7% of the price realised, the vendor 93% which will normally be paid no later than 6 weeks after the auction. The CMS will undertake to advertise the memorabilia for auction on its website no later than 3 weeks prior to the closing date of the auction. Bids will only be accepted from CMS members. Postal bids must be in writing or -mail by the closing date and time shown above. Generally, no item will be sold below 10% of the lower estimate without reference to the vendor. Thus, an item with a £10-15 estimate can be sold for £9, but not £8, without approval. The incremental scale for the acceptance of bids is as follows: £2 increments up to £20, then £20/22/25/28/30 up to £50, then £5 increments to £100 and £10 increments above that. So, if there are two postal bids at £25 and £30, the item will go to the higher bidder at £28. Should there be two identical bids, the first received will win. Bids submitted between increments will be accepted, thus a £52 bid will not be rounded either up or down. Items will be sent to successful postal bidders the week after the auction and will be sent by the cheapest rate commensurate with the value and size of the item. Postage and packaging will be paid by the successful postal bidder. Successful bidders should aim to pay quickly, so that accounts with vendors can be settled. The CMS will be responsible for the items sent for auction while they are in the possession of the CMS. A list of prices realised at an auction will be published on the Society’ website.

Remember - it is the only cricket auction with no buyer’s premium!

If you would like a photograph of any item for which there is not an illustration, please contact Roger Pease 01543 263711or [email protected].

The art of Enamelling on Copper was introduced to England, from the Continent ,in the 1740's, the two centres being Bilston in the Midlands and on the banks of the Thames. However, with the difficulties caused by the Napoleonic wars and the escalation of the Industrial Revolution, the craft had almost ceased by 1840. In 1970 Susan Benjamin of the London antique shop Halcyon Days, in conjunction with a small family enamelling firm in Bilston, began to revive the craft. Their products are true in quality and character to those made over two centuries ago, and are, without question, the antiques of tomorrow.
