Auction result well in line with expectations
In June 2020 Bonhams in London held the auction The Murray's Cabaret Club Costume Design Archive, which included the work An original costume design for a Murray's Cabaret Club showgirl from the 'Rag Time Medley' by Ronald Cobb. It changed hands for a price of GBP 382.50 (€ 421.26) achieving a result in the upper range of the estimate price range of GBP 300.00 – 400.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Ronald Cobb - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work An original hand-painted design for a menu at Murray's Cabaret Club, which sold at auction in June 2020 for GBP 956.25 (€ 1,053.14).
