In February 2021 Bonhams in London held the auction The Gentleman's Library Sale, which included the work An original costume design of a Murray's Cabaret Club showgirl in a white dress with red cape by Ronald Cobb. The »bidding war« ended at GBP 280.50 (€ 323.50), 40% above the upper estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Ronald Cobb - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work An original hand-painted design for a menu at Murray's Cabaret Club, which sold at auction in June 2020 for GBP 956.25 (€ 1,053.14).
