September 11, the auction house "Russian enamel" held its first autumn auction

Tuesday September 11 "Russian enamel" decided to open a new season, not leaving, so to speak, permanently on vacation: last summer they auction held on August 29. Directory on the familiar theme of "Rare books, manuscripts, autographs, photographs, posters and postcards" were collected from 410 lots, two of which were filmed. Traded it not that very long, but with a certain stubbornness: the event started traditionally at seven in the evening, but ended in the past.

the Turnout immediately demonstrated that the holiday season has successfully ended: the room was more than a half dozen people in the Network number of participants reached 86!Trading is also quite smartly.

From the entire catalog of new owners found 241 lot, that is a decent 58.7 per cent of the total.The number of participants in the Network could not affect the results: the Internet was sold to 52.3 percent (126 lots). Then descending, followed by phone (24,9 % or 60 lots), correspondence rates (12.9 per cent, or 31 per lot) and hall (of 9.9 %, or 24 lots, — but what among them lots!).

Revenue also could not please: the sum of all sales was 60.9 % of the mean estimate of the directory, that is 13.7 million rubles., and for the sum equal or exceeding 100 thousand rubles. was sold twenty-six lots.

When the bidding started, the impression that we have already acquired the top ranking of records: the first lot ("Hunting for wild animals, birds and fish" George. Stradanus in Latin, published at the end of the sixteenth century) was ranked in the final top-10 honourable eighth place, while the "Description of Russian-императорского capital city Saint-Петербурга and memorable objects in the surroundings thereof. With the plan. 3 h." I. G. Georgi in 1794 moved down only 1 step, and eventually became the second. For both lots fought the Internet and telephone, and in both cases won the last one: "the Hunt..." was sold for 480 thousand rubles., and "the Description..." for 600 thousand

the Undoubted leader of the auction was a manuscript of Marina Tsvetaeva, which often appears in the tops of the "literary Fund". This time the subject for-настоящему hot battles between room, phone and the Internet were two minovanii notebook pages with poems from the series "don Juan", dated 1939. The lot was estimated at 1.4–1.5 million rubles, but willing to join the great Russian literature was too much. Traded for the lot under a beautiful room 33 not less than ten minutes, and the winner was hall: at a rate of 3.35 million RUB over the rest of the participants all-таки surrendered.

With the second step of the podium last auction we also still did not meet him until the end: "the Description..." George, sold for 600 thousand rubles., divided it with the first volume of the collected works of M. Kuzmin "Network. Poems," published in 1915. The special charm sold instance gave more handwritten insertion, which the author made up some lines, stanzas and entire poems, censorship. According to the description of the "literary Fund," "S. 14-16, 17, 19, 21, 35-36, 40, 41, 45-46, 47, 57, 61, 88, 104-104 (so!), 114, 128, 130, 131, 132-133, 135, 141, 162, 163, 166, 203, 205-206, 209, 210 in place of points, indicating the gaps in the poems, the author from the hands of oreshkovo ink was written the missing text". Here the struggle has passed between the two phones. The winner enlarged by the author, the publication got for 600 thousand in the evaluation of 500-550 thousand.

In third place was also a prominent figure in our literature — book of Anna Akhmatova's "Running time" (1965) autographed (one of the last), I. G. Ehrenburg, and her note to him. The lot was estimated at 240-250 million, but party hard on the Internet got it for 550 thousand, parasporin of the player on the phone.

the Leader in the ranking of the difference between the estimate and the price may be another example of a small victory over the modest rating. The small book "Alexander Suvorov. His life and deeds. Biographical sketch" of 1900, compiled by N. Telesheva, autographed by the author, was estimated at 1-1,1 thousand rubles., but the participants on the phone and the Network decided otherwise. Eventually the book got the last one for 13 thousand rubles., that is 12.3 times higher than an average rating.

the Trading was lively and cheerful, which helped a lot comments auctioneer: for the most part after the next original statements Torg was somewhat excited. As it was, for example, with item number 9 ("a Wandering harlot, or the conversation of Madeleine and Julie" from P. Aretino, 1791): it was worth to hear the phrase "Only 8 thousand for such obscene pictures!", as the value of the lot rose to 15 thousand.

is not worse than look the situation with lot 32 (Filimonov, V. "Lunch. Poem"), marching in the catalog with the comment "about the food": at the beginning of the auction, it was announced an absentee rate of 19 thousand, and immediately after that it turned out that the party already offered a lot of 55 thousand the Auctioneer does not lose, and with the remark, "Forget what I was talking about zaochku 19 thousand!"gave in.
