Now that Sotheby’s has posted its promising sales results for the first three weeks of October, it has also put back up on its website the results for the previous nine months. CultureGrrl had previously flagged the mysterious disappearance of its 2006 monthly sales figures, which occurred after September 2006 showed a slight decline from September of the previous year.
This month, with $325.35 million in sales during the first three weeks, should easily surpass the $328.93 million in sales for October 2005 (scroll down). Nineteen additional auctions were scheduled for this week.
