I have often complained here about the lack of effort put into auction lot descriptions by the "usual gang" of UK and mainland Europe auction houses. They manage photos quite well, but fall down in length and quality of descriptions - both in terms of what the item is and what it's condition is. LP Foto in Stockholm actual admits that "items valued as being under 1000 SEK are not really looked at".

Chiswick Auctions (London) has, I think, started a Photographica section and has an auction in the middle of May. The descriptions are better than anything I have seen before and I hope the other houses put their act together!

I have absolutely no knowledge of the auction house or the person(s) involved. But I have sent them an email with appreciation of their effort!
