CLvIR PRESLEY © SORRY Gamelan —_ 4 THE FORA FARRE 2hOMIVE GUERNSEY’S AUCTIONEERS & BROKERS SINCE 1975 Re: Property of the late Jeffrey Epstein Dear Attorney General Barr: Although obviously what herein is being proposed is premature, we wanted to provide the following food for thought. There may well come a day when the Property of the late Jeffrey Epstein will be disposed of and, to this end, Guernsey's is ideally suited to both maximizing the financial potential of said property, while spreading nationwide messages in support of young women. The auction process, open to all bidders, is fair with no hint of favoritism. Properly marketed, such an event would absolutely attract a massive audience. (Larger audiences = greater prices.) And Guernsey's, long known for its pioneering work with the media, is pre- pared to help raise awareness by propelling any messages that the Dept. of Justice wishes to send to potential future victims or offenders. Formed nearly half a century ago, Guernsey's has been responsible for many of the most memorable and successful auctions in histo- ry. The world’s largest auction ~ the contents of the ocean liner SS United States - was a Guernsey's event as was the landmark Cold War auction of artwork from the Soviet Union. The definitive auctions devoted to such accomplished individuals as John F. Kennedy, Franklin Roosevelt and Gerald Ford were Guernsey's events as were the sales focused on Princess Diana, Duke Ellington, Mickey Mantle, Elvis Presley and the Beatles. We have had the privilege of working with many of our nation’s most prominent museums including the Smithsonian, and have raised substantial amounts for countless non-profit and charitable organizations. (Working directly with First Lady Betty Ford, funds from the Gerald Ford Auction were used to build one of Paul Newsman’s Hole-in-the-Wall Gang camps for very sick children.) In virtually every direction our events have taken us, we have produced world record results. Not once through the decades have we ever been involved in a litigious matter nor been asked to appear in a court of law for any unpleasant reason. On the other hand, judges have often reached out to us for assistance. Perhaps the most noteworthy of our projects with a court came when we were first asked to inventory, and eventually sell, the com- plete archive of Rosa Parks. Through a multi-year effort, we successfully sold Mrs. Parks Archive to the Buffett Foundation which, with our assistance, donated the critically important material to the U.S. Library of Congress. A letter from the Michigan judge over- seeing the entire matter is enclosed. Down the road, simply the mentioning of Jeffrey Epstein's name will no doubt raise issues; fingers will be pointed. To deal with the aftermath, one needs an impartial, capable, experienced team. Guernsey's can provide just that. Thank you for any consideration given our request. It would be my pleasure to meet with members of your staff to address any questions you might have. Si Arlan Ettinger President EFTA00105509

QOBATe __ Ser FREDDIE G. BURTON, Jr. January 15, 2015 1289 COLEMAN A. YOUNG MUNICIPAL CENTER DETROIT, MICHIGAN 44228 Guernsey's 108 East 73” Street New York, NY 10021 RE: The Estate and Trust of Mrs. Rosa L. Parks Dear Arian: This letter is long overdue as I have been intending to share with you my heartfelt appreciation for Guernsey's incredibly important work regarding the Rosa Park collection of personal property items (“Property”). As you may recall, in late 2006, through the efforts of Attorneys John Chase, Jr. and Melvin D, Jefferson, Jr., your firm was asked to come to Detroit to take control of the Property for inventory and transport to your secure storage facility in New York. It was the expectation of all parties participating in the legal matter before the Wayne County Probate Court that maintenance and storage of the Property would be for a short period of time. None of us thought seven (7) years would pass before this very important collection would find a deserving home. Ini the summer of 2014 through the indefatigable efforts of your firm, the Howard G. Buffett Foundation learned of the availability of the Property and presented a proposal that not only placed the collection in the hands of an organization that will allow the public to marvel at the incredible depth of Mrs. Parks commitment to the fair treatment of all people, but also preserves for history the legacy of Mrs. Parks. I believe it is fair to say that without the willingness of Guernsey’s to maintain its commitment and dedication to preserve the Rosa Parks Property there would be no collection to commemorate her historic efforts. Accordingly, I offer a humble “thank you” for Guernsey’s incredibly impressive work. Warmest regards, Judge of Probate 6 EFTA00105510
