  • Notes: Winter Associates is not able to give shipping quotes on items, nor do we arrange shipping. Winning bidders will be given a list of suggested shippers after the auction.
  • Condition: Due to the large quantity of textiles in the sale, we cannot provide detailed condition reports on each lot. We have described some condition issues for many of the lots, however, this should in no way be construed as a full condition report. As always, if you are interested in bidding on a lot we strongly recommend that you personally examine the lot. Also, in some instances we have not photographed the entire lot, only a sample piece from the lot, i.e. curtain lots, flat textiles, etc.
