In July 2013 Christies in New York held the auction First Impression Prints and Multiples, which included the work Approach to the Station by Benton Murdoch Spruance. The »bidding war« ended at USD 10,000.00 (€ 7,528.99), 67% above the upper estimate. Admittedly, works by Benton Murdoch Spruance have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work The People Work - Morning, Noon, Evening, Night in August this year with an auction result of USD 35,280.00 (€ 32,549.13).

Im Juli 2013 führte Christies in New York die Auktion First Impression Prints and Multiples durch, in der auch die Arbeit Approach to the Station von Benton Murdoch Spruance zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von USD 10.000,00 (€ 7.528,99) und damit 67% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Benton Murdoch Spruance auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit The People Work - Morning, Noon, Evening, Night im August diesen Jahres mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 35.280,00 (€ 32.549,13).
