BP - Buyer's Premium

A "Buyer's Premium" is charged in addition to the successful bid according to the rate defined in our terms and conditions.

Opening Bid

The opening bid is the minimum amount required to begin bidding, and is generally a percentage of the low estimate.

Bid Information

For your convenience, the bid information on this page automatically refreshes with the most up to date data so you don't have to refresh/reload this page.

Minimum Bid

Bid increments determine the lowest amount you may bid on a particular lot. Normally, bids must be at least one bidding increment over the current bid. However, podium, fax, phone and mail bidders submit bids at various times without knowing the current bid and must be on-increment or at a half increment (called a cut bid). Any podium, fax, phone, or mail bids that do not conform to a full or half increment will be rounded up or down to the nearest full or half increment. However, for Internet bids, these increments only apply to the current bid. Internet bids greater than one increment over the current bid can be any whole dollar amount. It is possible under several circumstances for winning bids to be between increments, sometimes only $1 above the previous increment.

Number of Bidders

This number represents the number of individual bidders prior to the close of Internet bidding on each lot. An individual who bids more than once is still counted only once. During the live session, only the winning bidder is included in this number, although detailed records are kept of all forms of bids.

Status

Reserve (If Any) Not Posted Yet:
Although many lots will not get reserves, this signifies that we have not yet posted any reserves to this entire auction. Reserves are usually posted approximately 3 days prior to the closing for Internet-only auctions, and approximately 7 days prior to the live session for Signature auctions.
Consignor Has Not Yet Submitted a Reserve:
Although the consignor's agreement allows a reserve on this lot, the deadline for submitting such a reserve has elapsed. If consignor submits a reserve post-deadline and the item fails to meet that reserve, we may charge the consignor a higher reserve fee.
No Reserve:
This lot is being sold without a reserve. (Note: By law, consignors may still bid under certain conditions, but they are responsible for paying the full Buyer's Premium and Seller's Commission if they do.)
Reserve Not Met:
A reserve has been posted on this lot, but no bids have met the reserve. The current bid has been set to the reserve amount, and the next bid will meet the reserve.
Reserve Met:
Reserves have been posted for this auction, and there is a reserve on this lot that has already been met.

Description
To Kill a Mockingbird Lot - Agreement Signed by Phillip Alford, Two Edited Clips of 35mm Footage, and Production Call Sheets. Phillip Alford was 13 years old and living in Birmingham, Alabama when he auditioned for the role of Jem Finch in To Kill a Mockingbird (1962), based on Harper Lee's Pulitzer Prize-winning novel. He had never previously been in a movie, and the story goes that Alford only agreed to the audition because it excused him from half a day of school! At any rate, Alford won the part of Jem (son of lawyer Atticus Finch, played by Gregory Peck in his Oscar-winning performance) and gave a moving, memorable, entirely natural portrayal. This lot contains a letter from Pakula-Mulligan Productions of Universal Studios, dated December 22, 1961, officially notifying Alford that he'd won the role and requesting his signature in agreement. (Alford and his mother both signed the form, as he was a minor.) Also included is a December 28, 1961 letter from the law offices of Silverstone & Rosenthal (and its postmarked envelope) regarding the casting agreement; three original call sheets, dated April 11 and 25, and May 1, 1962; and two clips of edited 35mm footage from the film. This last item is a uniquely rare artifact and deals with the scenes in which the trial begins and the camera tracks up to the segregated balcony, then to the uncuffing of Tom Robinson, and then cuts to Atticus in all his dauntless glory. Also included is a scene with jem and Scout in the forest after the Halloween party. All material is in Fine to Excellent condition. A wonderful archive devoted to a powerful and beloved film. Accompanied by James Spence Authentication auction LOA.
