1. Some of the lots in this sale are offered subject to a reserve. The reserve is a confidential minimum price agreed upon by the consignor and
Skinner, Inc. below which the lot will not be sold. In most cases, the reserve will be set below the estimated range, but in no case will it exceed
the estimates listed. A representative of Skinner, Inc. will execute such reserves by bidding for the consignor. In any event and whether or not a
lot is subject to a reserve, the auctioneer may reject any bid or raise not commensurate with the value of such lot.

2. All property is sold “as is,” and neither the auctioneer nor any consignor makes any warranties or representation of any kind or nature with
respect to the property, and in no event shall they be responsible for the correctness, nor deemed to have made any representation or warranty, of
description, genuineness, authorship, attribution, provenance, period, culture, source, origin, or condition of the property and no statement made
at the sale, or in the bill of sale, or invoice or elsewhere shall be deemed such a warranty of representation or an assumption of liability.

3. Except as provided in paragraph 1 above, the highest bidder as determined by the auctioneer shall be the purchaser. In the case of a disputed
bid, the auctioneer shall have sole discretion in determining the purchaser and may also, at his or her election, withdraw the lot or reoffer the lot
for sale.

4. All merchandise purchased must be paid for and removed from the premises the day of the auction. Skinner, Inc. may impose, and the

limitation, (a) cancelling the sale and applying any payments made by the purchaser to the damages caused by the purchaser’s breach, and/or (b)

Provenance

Robert L. Sharp (1899-1937)

Robert Sharp was a Mississippi native who came to Memphis in the early 1920s and established a reputation as a mandolinist and
music educator. He organized and led the Memphis Plectrum Orchestra, one of the first groups to broadcast for WMC, the
city’s first radio station. Mr. Sharp went on to found the Memphis Plectro Phonic Orchestra, training and performing with
many protégés. He continued as a popular performing artist in Little Rock, Arkansas with his family ensemble, “The Seven
Sharps.” His teaching and radio performances contributed to the mandolin family’s huge national popularity, as well as to the
rich and unique musical tradition of the American South.

Charles S. Rehm (1826-1892)

A native of Hanover, Germany, Mr. Rheem first appeared in the United States as a cornet soloist. After emigrating, Rehm was
elected bandmaster of Dodworth’s Second Regiment Band and was featured at Laura Keene’s Theatre and the Palace Garden
Theatre in New York City. In 1859 he joined the Philharmonic Society of New York, and a year later became bandmaster of the
Governor’s Island Recruiting Service Band. In 1862 he wrote “Our National Union March,” dedicated to President Abraham
Lincoln, and composed numerous other patriotic works for all types of ensembles. In 1872 he was appointed Leader and
Instructor of Music at the Military Academy at West Point, New York, and ultimately became known as America’s most prolific
leader of military bands.
