Market commentary

Done to very high standards and in concours condition, the 'His'n'Hers' luggage is a brilliant idea by the consignor that brought lots of attention during the preview and contributed to an exceptional price. It wasn't all that long ago that a good, sound, usable Gullwing could be bought for this much money. About eight years ago, to be more precise.
