    After all lots have been offered individually, the correspondance will be offered intact as one lot (lot 1171).  
    The starting price of the entire correspondence will be fixed by the auctioneer based on the total of the realisations of all individual lots plus 10%.  For the calculation of the starting price for the entire correspondence the auctioneer will calculate written bids on individual lots at their maximum bid (and not at their individual realisation) to avoid that the entire correspondence will be sold below a written bid on a single lot.
