The work "We're all alone in the house, Mr Binks, but I know I can trust you - you're such a silly ass!" by Donald Fraser Gould McGill was sold in the British and Continental Watercolours and Oriental auction at Christies in London in December 2005. It changed hands for a price of GBP 456.00 (€ 661.86) achieving a result in the upper range of the estimate price range of GBP 300.00 – 500.00.
