Just bought three Sotheby's auction catalogs, will I be happy?

28 posts in this topic

I saw them on Ebay and decided to bid on them and I won! I was interested to see the OA that was auctioned off back then. I got 1991, 1993, and 1994. I hope I am not dissappointed in them.

 

You won't be. Those catalogs are great.

No. These are very depressing when you see how cheap such good material went for. :cry:

I was at one of those auctions - I think it was the 1992 - as a friend of mine lived in Manhattan at the time. It was pretty awesome, let me tell you.

 

IIRC 1992 is the tough catalog to find.

 

The 1992 catalog was produced in quantity but was distributed using the wrong list and so went mostly to folks who were not interested in comics.

I was doing a background check on a lot and noticed that I only have the results from the following 1990s auctions (have all the catalogs):

 

Sotheby's:

1993, 1994, 1998, 2000

 

Christie's:

none (need to take a closer look)

 

If someone has other results that they are willing to share/exchange, I'd be glad to provide the data that I have.

I have all the results for all the years except 1999 because Sotheby's never sent me the catalog even though I subscribed to the comics one. I only found out a few years ago that they even had an auction that year and luckily got one off eBay.

 

I never got results from any of the Christie's one.

 

PM me if you would like a copy (preferably electronically) of the results.

 

If anyone has the 1999 results, I wouldn't mind a copy (hard copy preferred but will take an electronic copy)
