The work Electrical And Engineering - A Sketchbook of 40 Works by David Carr was auctioned at Christies in London in October 2012. It achieved a price of GBP 1,625.00 (€ 2,020.40), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 35%. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by David Carr - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Man And Machine II, which sold at auction in November 2006 for GBP 3,840.00 (€ 5,702.52).
