Section II: Maps & Atlases, Lots 93-202
Built over a span of more than fifty years, the superb Warren Heckrotte Collection of Rare Cartography, Exploration and Voyages features rare and important landmarks in the exploration of the Americas, particularly the Pacific slope and the northwest coast. Part One concentrates on the time from the beginning of the mapping of the New World through the epic discoveries of Lewis and Clark. Included are maps and printed books of great rarity and import, many of which are seldom on the market.
PBA Dynamic Bidding
When you place an absentee bid online, PBA's Dynamic Bidding will calculate your absentee bid against competing absentee bids and determine the current high bid amount. So, for example, if you place an absentee bid of $200 on an item with a minimum bid of $100, you will be notified that you are the high bidder and the bid is at $100. If a second bidder then places a bid of $150, your bid will be incremented up to $160. The under bidder will also be notified by email that their bid was outbid with a link to the item to enter a higher bid if desired. The current high bid will be the starting bid when the lot comes up in the live auction itself. In addition to providing full transparency, Dynamic Bidding will allow you to make more informed decisions.
