Auction result well in line with expectations
The work I Guess We Must Abin Three Feet Ahead With A Hundred Yards To Go. Split Was Accusin' An Spurrin' An Whippin'. by Frank Tenney Johnson was auctioned at Sothebys in New York in September 2010. The price achieved of USD 37,500.00 (€ 27,571.50) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 30,000.00 – 50,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Frank Tenney Johnson achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Wyoming Cattlemen in October 2020 with an auction result of USD 550,000.00 (€ 472,224.61).
