    Now you have to prove to the Pogues and Blue Moons that a better way to go might be via private sales. Though who can say without testing the waters? A "Clapp-like" collection sold in one transaction would be a change.

    TEFAF ART MARKET REPORT 2017: MARKET SHIFTS AWAY FROM AUCTION MODEL TOWARDS DEALER SALES

    I'll go with a dealer generated this headline.

    Who knows what is real anymore.

    Not that it would prove anything, but I'd bet that Pogue wishes he had sold privately.

    Not sure. Most private sales of major numismatic holdings occurred after their accumulators died or were incapacitated (e.g., Waldo Newcomer, dealers like Wayte Raymond or Charles Wormser). Eliasberg bought the Clapp collection en bloc in 1942 from the Clapp Estate (i.e., both John M. Clapp and his son John H. Clapp were dead at this point).

    The article presented in the post title as "Interesting and relevant article about the art market..." is nothing more than an advertisement followed by telephone numbers to call.

    I disagree. And FWIW, there was no need to read past the word "ENDS" at the end of the article.

    Sorry, I'll stop reading past the end of the "article" in the future. When it says end, it means "end"!
