Upper estimate price exceeded by 33 %.
The work 'Cricketers All.' ("Well, My Lads, You'Re Both A Bit Too Good For Me At Present, But Here'S Luck To The Game") by Ernest Shepard was sold in the The Political Cartoon Collection of Jeffrey Archer auction at Sothebys in London in March 2018. The »bidding war« ended at GBP 2,000.00 (€ 2,277.11), 33% above the upper estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Ernest Shepard achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work "Here Is Edward Bear, Coming Downstairs Now, Bump, Bump, Bump, On The Back Of His Head, Behind Christopher Robin." in December 2012 with an auction result of GBP 139,250.00 (€ 171,733.92).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 33 % übertroffen
Die Arbeit 'Cricketers All.' ("Well, My Lads, You'Re Both A Bit Too Good For Me At Present, But Here'S Luck To The Game") von Ernest Shepard wurde im März 2018 in der Auktion The Political Cartoon Collection of Jeffrey Archer bei Sothebys in London versteigert. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von GBP 2.000,00 (€ 2.277,11) und damit 33% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Ernest Shepard erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit "Here Is Edward Bear, Coming Downstairs Now, Bump, Bump, Bump, On The Back Of His Head, Behind Christopher Robin." im Dezember 2012 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 139.250,00 (€ 171.733,92).
