Description
IMPORTANT – PLEASE REVIEW BEFORE BIDDING: Aeron House makes every effort to accurately identify and describe each lot; however, titles and descriptions may contain errors, omissions, or AI-assisted information and are provided as a general guide only.
BIDDERS MUST REVIEW ALL PHOTOGRAPHS AND VERIFY ALL MATERIAL DETAILS BEFORE BIDDING, including, but not limited to, signatures/autographs, authenticity, maker/artist, dates/years, condition, measurements, quantities/counts, completeness, model/edition, and identifying marks.
AUTHENTICATION: Unless a lot specifically states that an item or signature has been authenticated or certified by a named third-party authentication service (such as JSA, PSA/DNA, Beckett, CGC, or another identified service), the item should be considered UNAUTHENTICATED. The presence of a signature, autograph, attribution, name, or identification in a title or description does not, by itself, constitute a guarantee of authenticity. Bidders are responsible for reviewing the photographs and making their own determination regarding authenticity before bidding.
Photographs are an important part of the lot information and should be carefully reviewed. If any information in the title, description, or photographs appears inconsistent, uncertain, or requires clarification, contact Aeron House before bidding.
