ARTinvestment.RU   11 апреля 2017

Last March 18, the auction and used books broke the record not only the number of lots, but also on duration

Until the next auction "Russian enamel" stayed almost two weeks. It's time to remember the outcome of the previous one.

so, at the last auction, and used books auction house "Russian enamel" presented to the public 616 lots, including you can find prints, posters, photographs, documents, autographs, business cards and other evamerica, a good selection of books and even Board games. All offered at very affordable prices — from 300 rubles to 105 rubles.

the Factor of affordability, most likely, played a crucial role throughout the incident.

Forces and very active gambling of the Internet and numerous phone players draw lots catalog 616 lasted more than six hours. Imagine this: six hours, without interruptions and significant delays, the heroic auctioneer "Russian enamel" Sergey Chistyakov successfully entertained yourself and dwindling public and not less successfully sold numerous paper items. His efforts, I must say, is quite justified: the hammer took 392 of 616 (63,6 %) of the lots, totaling just less than 3.3 million — 126,6 % (!!!) the mean estimate of the directory. In fairness it should be noted that the large difference between the starting and final prices, not least resulted in a specific approach auction houses to the preliminary assessment of lots that often — several times below the market, particularly caught the eye during the draw of the antiquarian and Thong photos, when the prices of the lots and then soared in dozens of times higher than the starting.

Over one third of all sold @161 mdas lot, as expected, won a sucker for drawings of lots in steps of 50 rubles to the Internet, a little less — 131 lots went to buyers on the phone, 30 times won correspondence rate, and 70 lots have been purchased the most single-minded participants in the room. Agree, to sit in the auction room and three hours is quite difficult, and only six and all the torture and torment that not everyone will agree. Which, by the way, and practice: twenty people who watched and participated in the draw of the first third of the catalog at the time of the announcement of lots of the last third of the catalog only two.

in Order not to assimilate to record the duration of bidding, at this time, perhaps, abandon the detailed statistics for each thematic string, and tell you about the most expensive lots, and lots, record raised in price.

More than all other auction items paid for the photo "the July days of 1917. View of the Palace square, where was assembled and disarmed military units, were on the side of the Bolsheviks" Jacob Steinberg (lot 568), exposed with an estimate of 20-50 thousand rubles. The fight for this magnificent in all respects the began among participants — bargaining started with 45 thousand rubles by correspondence rate, join the players in the room and on the phone, and in the end, the picture went to a buyer in the room for 310 thousand rubles.

In second place on the list of most expensive lots turned out to be another brilliant execution of photographic evidence of events of a century ago the work of Jacob V. Steinberg — picture "the Great October. The red guards, soldiers and sailors at the entrance to the Smolny. Ushers" (lot 569). With the launch of 20 thousand roubles the lot was contested between the same parties in the room and on the phone and went into the hall for 290 thousand rubles. 14.5 times higher than the start.

Closes the three very unusual and interesting lot: a rare completeness of the collection of 1000 labels Soviet alcoholic products produced in 1960-80-е years (lot 542). Collection got an anonymous phone connoisseur of wines at a starting price of 105 thousand rubles.

the Champion for the growth of final prices relative to the start, was lot 197 — sheet with the announcement of the book of Bozidar (B. P. Gordeev) "singing warm unity" book publishing "Centrifuge" in the revised version, with introduction and commentary by S. P. Bobrov, 1916. With a modest start in 2,5 thousand rubles a lot in the fight room, Internet and phone went into the hall for 80 thousand rubles — in 32 (!) times above the initial price.

And another lot, deserves special mention, — archive of documents related to the work of the "Book Shops Writers" in 1940-1941 (lot 499). Lot of 12 sheets of various documents, including minutes of the meetings of the Commission Writing the "Book Shops Writers", regulations, cases, regulations on the Bookstore of the Union of Soviet writers of the USSR, the decisions of Masisprom "On regulation of trade second-hand and antique book in the mountains. Moscow", experts estimated the auction house in the 5-15 thousand rubles, started with absentee rate of 32 thousand rubles, and was sold by telephone to the player, all bets perekopivka hall for 75 thousand rubles.
