Auction result misses estimated price range
In October 2012 a collector was able to acquire the work Orpheus At Whipsnade by Herry Perry for GBP 625.00 (€ 777.08). 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 1,000.00 – 1,500.00 set by the auction house. Admittedly, works by Herry Perry have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Australia M.C.C. At Lords in October 2012 with an auction result of GBP 3,250.00 (€ 4,040.80).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Im Oktober 2012 konnte ein Sammler die Arbeit Orpheus At Whipsnade von Herry Perry für GBP 625,00 (€ 777,08) 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 1.000,00 – 1.500,00. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Herry Perry auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit Australia M.C.C. At Lords im Oktober 2012 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 3.250,00 (€ 4.040,80).
