Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
In December 2010 Christies in London held the auction Christie's Interiors, which included the work 'had a topping day last week. I'm staying with the Goldbergs and Bobby took me for a joy-fly in his new 5000 H.P. 'Flick''; 'Came to London, where we had half a dozen dances at the Fitz.'; and 'And got back to Yorshire in time for the finish of the u by Lewis Baumer. Here, the upper estimate of GBP 800.00 was slightly exceeded - the artwork found a new owner for GBP 812.50 (€ 942.50). Admittedly, works by Lewis Baumer have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Tennis Holidays in November 2010 with an auction result of GBP 3,250.00 (€ 3,883.75).
