Jacques (Czech, 1887-1942) and Charles Biederer (Czech, 1892-1942) maintained a photo studio specializing in erotic photography, primarily of BDSM acts modeled most often by two women. The brothers' studio was shut down during Nazi occupation, and the two were subsequently murdered in the Holocaust.

Condition

Every lot is sold "as is," "where is," and "without warranty," whether express or implied. Lighting and electronics have not been tested and should be professionally evaluated prior to use. Art has not been examined outside of the frame unless otherwise stated.

Our auction items are antique and vintage, often from estates, and are not in perfect condition. They often show normal signs of age, use, and wear, which might not be specified in a condition report. Bidders are responsible for determining the physical condition of items prior to bidding. The absence of a condition report does not indicate the absence of condition issues with the lot. Requests for condition reports, additional photographs, or a video inspection can be obtained via email at: info@vallots.com (any condition statement given is offered as an opinion and should not be treated as a statement of fact).

All bids are final. We do not offer refunds based on item description, condition, or for any other reason.
