Sold at the upper estimate price
The work London Transport At London'S Service by Abram Games was sold in the Posters With A Purpose: The London Transport Museum Sale auction at Christies in London in October 2012. The auction ended at the price of GBP 2,000.00 (€ 2,486.65), which exactly corresponded to the upper end of the estimated price range of GBP 1,500.00 – 2,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Abram Games - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Join The Ats, which sold at auction in April 2012 for GBP 4,375.00 (€ 5,365.82).
