Auction, Christie, Manson & Woods, 25 September 1974. And such a modest quantity.

The same sale had large quantities of other Feuerheerd vintages, and of Quinta do Sibio.

Only another 40 years to photograph Julian. What happens then? Visits to Sotheby's commence?
Re: Christie’s auctions
No. Sotheby’s has nothing like the same records. When I have typed up to 1977, I might† be done.flash_uk wrote:Only another 40 years to photograph Julian. What happens then? Visits to Sotheby's commence?
† A few things need re-photographing. So there might be one more day of picture-taking, perhaps to the early 1980s. Then definitely done.

Re: Christie’s auctions
