Auction result well in line with expectations
In October 2001 Christies in New York held the auction American Paintings and Sculpture, which included the work Truck, Trains and Ship; Traffic Light and Truck; Still Life with Flour Sacks: Three works by Walter Murch. The price achieved of USD 3,760.00 (€ 4,181.03) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 3,000.00 – 5,000.00. Admittedly, works by Walter Murch have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Carlock in March 2010 with an auction result of USD 31,250.00 (€ 23,103.65).
