Open bidding

Opening bid

$
Name the most you'd pay. We bid for you, just enough to stay in front, like eBay. Nobody sees your max, not even Captain Nemo.

How the bidding works (the short version of the Articles)
  • The first bid starts a 13-day clock. When it hits zero, the top bidder wins.
  • Enter your max. The price only climbs as far as needed to keep you in front, so you may win for less.
  • Each bid has to beat the price by a small step. Ties go to whoever bid first.
  • Some pieces carry a reserve, a minimum price kept secret. If bidding ends below it, the piece doesn't sell. The box tells you if it's met.
  • A bid in the last 5 minutes resets the clock to 5 minutes. No sniping.
  • Win, and we email a pay link. You have 3 days to pay. Free pickup at the South Loop dock (recommended). Smaller pieces can ship, quoted before you pay.
  • A bid is a promise to buy. Please bid only if you mean it.

What's it worth?

Taking a squint at it...

An estimate from the photos and description, not an appraisal and not a reserve. Bid what it is worth to you; the sea sets no prices and neither do we.

Description

A stout green figure built out of ovals, fists up and feet planted, with a ragged dark crest where the hair would be and a green and pink oval for a face. Behind it the ground is brushed in loose stripes of pink, violet, peach and blue.

The green is laid on thick and outlined in black and ochre, and the close-ups show how much paint there is in it. No signature found on the front. He looks ready to settle something on the dock, and we would not bet against him.

Dock pickup in the South Loop is the plan for this one.
