Auction result misses estimated price range
In October 2012 a collector was able to acquire the work The Museums Kensington by Fred Taylor for GBP 1,375.00 (€ 1,709.57). This price was achieved in the auction Posters With A Purpose: The London Transport Museum Sale at Christies in London and was even below the estimate range of GBP 1,500.00 – 2,000.00 set by the auction house. Admittedly, works by Fred Taylor have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work British Hong Kong in October 2008 with an auction result of GBP 6,875.00 (€ 8,763.16).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Im Oktober 2012 konnte ein Sammler die Arbeit The Museums Kensington von Fred Taylor für GBP 1.375,00 (€ 1.709,57) erwerben. Dieser Preis wurde in der Auktion Posters With A Purpose: The London Transport Museum Sale bei Christies in London erzielt und lag noch unterhalb der von dem Auktionshaus angesetzten Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 1.500,00 – 2.000,00. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Fred Taylor auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit British Hong Kong im Oktober 2008 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 6.875,00 (€ 8.763,16).
