In May 2017 Sothebys in New York held the auction American Art, which included the work The Gusher by John Philip Falter. The »bidding war« ended at USD 93,750.00 (€ 83,437.17), 34% above the upper estimate. Admittedly, works by John Philip Falter have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Young Sammy Sixgun in November 2017 with an auction result of USD 516,500.00 (€ 434,106.57).

Im Mai 2017 führte Sothebys in New York die Auktion American Art durch, in der auch die Arbeit The Gusher von John Philip Falter zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von USD 93.750,00 (€ 83.437,17) und damit 34% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von John Philip Falter auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit Young Sammy Sixgun im November 2017 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 516.500,00 (€ 434.106,57).
