this is in response to the post about podesta, herb, and susan using Sotheby's to line up a house on martha's vineyard for a party.
the agent involved in that transaction found the handkerchief, and this event generated the Susan Sandler email about the 'pizza related map'.
I am drawing a conclusion that Sotheby's is tied in directly with Alefantis/Brock/Comet/Little Red Fox/Buck's through Transformer.
first things first - archive all of the transformer documentation while it's still available:
http://www.transformerdc.org/documents/
it's an open public directory of all pdfs and .docs associated with the transformer gallery for the last several years. i've archived it twice, but i don't know if there's an easy way to just dump .pdfs somewhere. go go go, then come back here.
Sotheby's Cards
Sotheby's has a luxury/VIP credit card which acts as a ticket to museums and private events - it's an elite access pass for the elite of the elite:

Alefantis and Brock used Sotheby's to buy their house: http://archive.is/4z3g2
Alefantis is friends with this agent http://archive.is/gacR0
she posts lots of 'events' and 'showings', as a realtor is likely to do.

sotheby's is present at many transformer auctions - all those .pdfs you downloaded, search them, and you'll find sotheby's throughout.

here's the guest list for the 7th annual transformer auction, for instance.
fbianon said that 'cards' were an important lead, and i think this is why.
sotheby's may be the central service for collecting/disbursing money in a private market scheme. using auctions to hide value transfers, like the dead-drive-on-ebay concept, but on a much larger scale.
ALSO THIS CONNECTS THE CORCORAN, whose trustees are represented by JECCA and ANDREW JON KLINE.
Sotheby's is apparently Corcoran Groups parent company: http://archive.is/X7xv9
2008 is when Corcoran (holder of 2 billion dollars of art assets, i've posted about them before) started its decline, ending with a "donation" to GWU of nearly all property and assets.
appears to be a conflict of interest fire sale: Corcoran selling priceless collections through Sotheby's
http://archive.is/nKRVv
http://archive.is/c1wKd
http://archive.is/Ptwmf
Article states that "Realogy" sees declining profits in Sotheby's, Corcoran, and CitiHabitats - they only made 1.7 BILLION for the quarter.
following these threads.

This is excellent research! What is the conflict of interest with Corcoran selling through its parent company?
Leastofthese ago
Great work! Here are a couple of references to Sotheby's I ran across in my research. This article places Tony Podesta in the VIP lounge at Sotheby's New York: http://archive.is/JN0S
Sotheby's and Christie's used Tony Podesta to lobby congress on a bill that would have given royalties to artists whose artwork is resold at auction: http://archive.is/KM5QF
See also this reddit post that makes some of the same connections you have made: https://www.reddit.com/r/The_Donald/comments/5dfz8m/qatar_podesta_koons_a_royal_family_of_kiddy/
The artwork/real estate/favors connection looks incredibly fishy. Definitely a big red flag and needs more research.

I thinkk you are correct, this is the "CARD" FBIanon mentioned - that or the 5 of spades....sigh

Sotheby's is in the business of selling art! That's enough to make it suspicious? Come on! No downvotes so far? Then mine is the first!

while not damning in and of itself, the whitney is incorporated through the CT umbrella company used by so many other corps involved in everything. they represent tens of thousands of corps everywhere, and is the disappointing dead end i keep coming back to. association doesn't really mean much.
it is refreshing to see that the whitney publishes their finances readily on their website for the last three years. quite a bit more open than most of the other orgs we look at.
founded by a vanderbilt.
ultimately, i don't know how much of a lead the whitney might really be. it certainly appears that they have access to lots of assets - in the hundreds of millions of dollars, and they aren't held back by the same arrangements that tripped up the corcoran trustees.

definitely in the sotheby's "network of museums" though, and i think that's going to become a recurring theme. the question becomes - is this a systemic problem which is based within the sotheby's architecture (i'm afraid it is) or is it a systemic problem created by a cabal of players who recognize the potential in exploiting the sotheby's network?
it's all connected, and it's frustrating to unravel, by design.

Do you have any idea what "opening Bday cards" really means?
bolus ago
personally, i have my doubts that it's a real lead. his birthday is 4/27, i think, and i've received multiple cards from people on my birthday before. it's odd, but not impossibly strange.
Pizzagatethrowaway ago
This feels like the best breakthrough we've seen in weeks. Great work! I think you're right about the "cards"
islandofdelight ago
Interesting! The elite-Cabal actually do believe themselves to be a pure genetic offspring of the Annunaki (Sirian-Orion ETs)... Mesopotamian 'gods' mostly, but have other names in other cultures. Hadad, Set, Marduk was also the being known as Satan. The ritual and pedophilia energetically feed the Archons/demons, who are in service of Lucifer (a different being altogether). This guy in the video talks about "loosh" which is the bio-energy that these parasites feed off of.

Sotheby’s and Christies are crooked as hell. The head of one of the two has done time in prison. I think they both got caught a while back colluding on price fixing and there were fake art scandals too

A pdf for "Summer camp" with comet ping pong references http://archive.is/4czdS
SpikyAube ago
On the 11th Feb 9weird time for a summer camp) it says John Hutchison will be doing an intro to the screening of 80s min-series Cosmos. That couldn't be THE John Hutchison, could it? Canadian inventor John Hutchison who claims to have worked out cold fusion/free energy and is selling this anti-gravity machine on eBay? That would be SO weird. It can't be the same guy, it's probably a pretty common name.

Look at the annual auctions.
Tony podesta is always in attendance as a donor. Sothebys is almost always represented. I've found two or three visits from corcoran trustees.
Bonner group is there.

Alefantis does the food at them too, wonder if there's a stupid legal technicality cause he's probably charging his not for profit business from his for profit business. Another 65k of hotdogs methinks.

Yeah the 2010 catalog is super sketchy, both in terms of who's attending and what's for sale. Plenty of the usual suspects here:
Savories, sweets, and drinks have been generously provided by: 1905, Birch & Barley, Bistrot Lepic & Wine Bar, Buck’s Fishing & Camping, Casa Oaxaca, Comet Ping Pong, Cork Market, Dolci Gelati, Estadio, Gordon Biersch, Kushi, L’Enfant Café & Bar,
