Sold at the lower estimate price
In May 2014 Christies in London held the auction Christie's Interiors, which included the work "Don't make me laugh!" by Norman Thelwell. The result of GBP 500.00 (€ 614.52) was exactly at the lower end of the estimate range of GBP 500.00 – 700.00. Admittedly, works by Norman Thelwell have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work 'How many trading stamps did they give you with him?' in December 2010 with an auction result of GBP 3,750.00 (€ 4,349.99).
Zuschlag beim unteren Schätzpreis
Im Mai 2014 führte Christies in London die Auktion Christie's Interiors durch, in der auch die Arbeit "Don't make me laugh!" von Norman Thelwell zur Versteigerung kam. Das dabei erzielte Ergebnis von GBP 500,00 (€ 614,52) entsprach exakt dem unteren Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 500,00 – 700,00. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Norman Thelwell auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit 'How many trading stamps did they give you with him?' im Dezember 2010 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 3.750,00 (€ 4.349,99).
