The collection of Native American Art belonging
to Anne S. and Robert E. Clay originated during
a trip to New Mexico where the Clays gained a
lifelong appreciation of Native American Art.
Mr and Mrs. Clay emerged as enthusiastic
collectors with a devotion to the modern
masters of Pueblo pottery, Navajo weavings
and Southwestern jewelry. As their collection
became more sophisticated, they developed
strong relationships with respected curators,
dealers, and artists in the Southwest. They
faithfully attended and volunteered at the Indian
Market in Santa Fe for 30 years. Several of the
items in the collection are works commissioned
directly from artists they met personally and have
never been seen by the public.
Mr. Clay was a registered Electrical Engineer and
consulting Engineer in Denver for over 40 years.
He was well-known amongst his engineering
colleagues for wearing one of his many bolo ties
by famed jewelers such as Charles Loloma, Julian
Lovato, Harvey Begay, Ric Charlie, Victor Beck
and Richard Chavez. As the Clay’s collection
grew, the couple searched for representative
examples of the major styles of Pueblo pottery,
weavings and jewelry, and for works which
stood out for their uniqueness. Due to his
keen interest in weavings, Mr. Clay became an
expert on the mythology and history of Native
American Sandpaintings. He was a founding
member of The Douglas Society at the Denver Art
Museum and he was a guest speaker on the topic
of Sandpaintings. In 2006 he was honored by
his fellow Douglas Society members and given
the prestigious Circle of Honor Award. The Clays
also amassed an extensive collection of historical
books on Native American Art and culture which
was donated to the Wheelwright Museum,
Santa Fe in 2011. Mrs. Clay was a collector
and supporter of Native American Arts in her
own right. Although, her interest was mostly in
jewelry and pottery, she was a lover of words
and a natural story teller as a result she became
interested in Storyteller figurines.
During their 60 years of marriage, Mr. and Mrs.
Clay were grateful for their interesting travels
and great friendships that led them through
their study and collecting of Native American Art.
Through the years they have made donations
from their collection to the Denver Art Museum
and loans to various other institutions. We are
honored to have the opportunity to work with
such an extensive collection and to present it as
the inaugural auction in our Denver saleroom.

If we receive written bids on a particular lot for identical amounts, and these are the highest bids on the lot at the auction, it will be sold to the person whose written bid was received and accepted first. Execution of written bids is a free service undertaken subject to other commitments at the time of the sale and we do not accept liability for failing to execute a written bid or for errors and omissions in connection with the written bid.
Telephone BidsOn lots with a low estimate of $300 and above and if a prospective buyer makes arrangements with us prior to the commencement of the sale we will use reasonable efforts to contact them to enable them to participate in the bidding by telephone and we do not accept liability for failure to do so or for errors and omissions in connection with telephone bidding.
Online BidsWe will use reasonable efforts to carry out online bids and do not accept liability for equipment failure, inability to access the Internet or software malfunctions related to the execution of online bids.
ReservesSome lots in the sale are subject to a reserve which is the confidential minimum price below which such lot will not be sold. The reserve will not exceed the low estimate of the lot. Reserves are agreed upon with consignors or, in the absence thereof, the absolute discretion of Leslie Hindman Auctioneers, Inc. The auctioneer may open the bidding on any lot below the reserve by placing a bid on behalf of the seller. The auctioneer may continue to bid on behalf of the seller up to the amount of the reserve, either by placing consecutive bids or by placing bids in response to other bidders. With respect to lots that are offered without reserve, unless there are already competing bids, the auctioneer, in his or her discretion, will generally open the bidding at half of the low estimate for the lot. In the absence of a bid at that level, the auctioneer may proceed backwards at his or her discretion until a bid is recognized, and then continue up from that amount.
Auctioneer’s DiscretionThe auctioneer has the right at his or her absolute and sole discretion to refuse any bid, to advance the bidding in such a manner as he or she may decide, to withdraw any lot, and in the case of error or dispute, and whether during or after the sale, to determine the successful bidder, to continue the bidding, to cancel the sale or to reoffer and resell the item in dispute. If any dispute arises after the sale, our sale record is conclusive.
Successful BidThe highest bidder acknowledged by the auctioneer will be the purchaser. In the case of a tie bid, the winning bidder will determined by the auctioneer at his or her sole discretion. In the event of a dispute between bidders, the auctioneer has final discretion to determine the successful bidder or to reoffer the lot in dispute. If any dispute arises after the sale, the Leslie Hindman Auctioneers, Inc. sale record shall be conclusive. Title passes upon the fall of the auctioneer’s hammer to the highest acknowledged bidder subject to the Conditions of Sale set forth herein, and the bidder assumes full risk and responsibility.
