Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
In December 2011 Christies in New York held the auction Photographs Including Crossing America: Photographs from The Consolidated Freightways Collection, Part II, which included the work New York Pier, July 5, 1976 by Tod Papageorge. Here, the upper estimate of USD 1,800.00 was slightly exceeded - the artwork found a new owner for USD 1,875.00 (€ 1,445.31). However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Tod Papageorge - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Girl Kicking Ball, Central Park, 1991, which sold at auction in October 2015 for USD 5,625.00 (€ 5,094.19).
