Absentee bids let you place your maximum bid on an item before the live auction begins. During the live show, we’ll continue bidding on your behalf up to your max bid — just like leaving a bid with a traditional auctioneer.
When you place an absentee bid, the system sets the current bid conservatively — just enough to keep you in the lead without revealing your full amount.
The current bid shown on each lot reflects all confirmed absentee bids and updates automatically as new bids come in.
When the live auction starts, bidding will begin at the current bid. The auctioneer will continue bidding on behalf of absentee bidders up to their max bids.
Because absentee bids can arrive seconds apart, the current bid you see may not always include bids still being processed. Refresh the page for the most up-to-date information.

Lot 147 - Pair Of Antique Board-Mounted Panoramic Photographs, New England Pond With Rowboat And Houses, And Bearded Man With Horse And Buggy At Mailbox
Pair of antique board-mounted panoramic photographs on matching gray card mounts. The first depicts a calm pond or river with two figures in a rowboat at left, several houses and outbuildings along the wooded far shore, and a large white house with a porch at right, all reflected in the water. The second shows a bearded man in a suit and hat standing beside a horse hitched to a folding-top buggy on a tree-lined dirt road, with a mailbox post visible at the right edge.
Both photographs show fading and toning. The mounts exhibit edge wear and minor corner losses. The stands visible in the photographs are not included.
