In March 2007 Christies in New York held the auction Fine American Paintings, Drawings and Sculpture, which included the work The Trestle Bridge by Walter Emerson Baum. The »bidding war« ended at USD 8,400.00 (€ 6,280.84), 40% above the upper estimate. Admittedly, works by Walter Emerson Baum have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work The Pink House in November 2007 with an auction result of USD 73,000.00 (€ 49,700.44).

Oberer Schätzpreis um 40 % übertroffen

Im März 2007 führte Christies in New York die Auktion Fine American Paintings, Drawings and Sculpture durch, in der auch die Arbeit The Trestle Bridge von Walter Emerson Baum zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von USD 8.400,00 (€ 6.280,84) und damit 40% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Walter Emerson Baum auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit The Pink House im November 2007 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 73.000,00 (€ 49.700,44).
