Auction result well in line with expectations

The work Note to Marty Pahls by Robert Crumb was auctioned at Phillips in London in December 2010. It changed hands for a price of GBP 7,500.00 (€ 8,699.98) achieving a result in the upper range of the estimate price range of GBP 6,000.00 – 8,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Robert Crumb achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work The Vulture Goddess in November 2014 with an auction result of USD 221,000.00 (€ 177,681.30).

Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen

Die Arbeit Note to Marty Pahls von Robert Crumb kam im Dezember 2010 bei Phillips in London zur Auktion. Dabei wechselte sie für einen Preis von GBP 7.500,00 (€ 8.699,98) den Besitzer und erzielte damit ein Ergebnis im oberen Bereich der Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 6.000,00 – 8.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Robert Crumb erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit The Vulture Goddess im November 2014 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 221.000,00 (€ 177.681,30).
