Market commentary
A staggering transaction, aggressively pursued by bidders both here and on the phones to this outstanding result. The new owner says hell make it run and do nothing else with it. Thank goodness. Is the price big money Gooding & Company sold Otis Chandlers 1912 Limited, impeccably restored to concours condition, for $1,265,000 just a year ago, giving a significant, money where your mouth is, example of the origility premiums being paid these days.
