Auction 86 To take place on 8 December 2018 Please post bids to Peter McGowan, Nethergreen House, 9 The Green, Ruddington, Notts NG11 6DY Or email: [email protected] The deadline is Tuesday, 4 December 2018. Late bids cannot be recorded. Ensure you include your current address and contact details. If you are bidding by email, please make sure you have received his confirmation of receipt. Successful bidders living outside the UK will be asked to pay for their lots before despatch. If two bids of the same amount are received for a lot, then the bid received first will take precedence, so early bidding is desirable. All lots now carry reserves, either at a default value of 75% of the estimate or at an undisclosed figure set by the seller. No bid will be accepted below the reserve. Take into account that some of our estimated prices appear rather too modest, and may be well overbid. We don’t claim that these estimates are wholly consistent, so make allowance for this. Remember that revised auction rules, issued earlier this year, now apply. NB: See the members’ page of our website for images of this material. Items unsold in our auctions are sometimes added to the Web Offer pages that can be found at www.bookplatesociety.org/WebOffer2.htm where hundreds of exlibris owned by members are available for direct sale at fixed prices. £ 1 Irish arms: Earl of Limerick (Pery) F23376; DH Kelly, The O’Kelly, pasted on flyleaf with in MS “Denis H 11 Kelly Castle Kelly, Nov 24 1811, F16893; William Laird by Vinycomb, 1901, stain at top right.
