N.Y. General Business Law § 607-a: Storage of furs

§ 607-a. Storage of furs. In addition to any other provision of this

article, a fur storage operator shall be subject to the following:

1. If there is any statement of limitation in damages in an agreement

for the storage of furs, such agreement shall contain on its face

immediately above the consumer bailor's signature the following notice

"DO NOT SIGN THIS AGREEMENT UNLESS THE DECLARED VALUE OF EACH ARTICLE TO

BE STORED OR SERVICED IS STATED."

2. Where the consumer bailor does not personally deliver furs for

storage and the fur storage operator, in the normal course of his

business, makes an appraisal of such furs before accepting them for

storage, the fur storage operator, for purposes of compliance with the

disclosure provisions of this article, shall be deemed to have complied

if he supplies a consumer bailor with a written storage agreement within

thirty days of receipt of such furs. Provided, however, that nothing

contained in this subdivision shall diminish any existing duty of care

which the fur storage operator owes to the consumer bailor.

3. For the purposes of this section, a fur storage operator means a

warehouseman whose storage business is limited to furs and other items

of valuable clothing and furs means articles of wearing apparel intended

to be worn by individuals and consisting in whole or in part of animal

fur.
