Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
In September 2010 Christies in London held the auction Lehman Brothers: Artwork and Ephemera, which included the work High tension No.1, Installing Aerial by Harold Haliday Costain. The »bidding war« ended at GBP 937.50 (€ 1,084.32), 17% above the upper estimate. Admittedly, works by Harold Haliday Costain have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Water Storage Tank, No. 1, Miami Florida, 1933 in October 2015 with an auction result of GBP 3,250.00 (€ 4,545.94).
