We've already mentioned the Sotheby's auction that contained artwork from Osamu Tezuka and Akira Toriyama. What we haven't covered is how much each item went for.
The prices listed below are the hammer price with the buyer's premium.
The Tezuka artwork went mostly within the estimated prices.
Lot 231 was estimated to sell for 8,000 to 10,000 EUR. It went for 8,750.
Lot 232 was estimated to sell for 3,000 to 4,000 EUR. It went for 3,625.
Lot 233 was estimated to sell for 2,000 to 3,000 EUR. It went for 1,750.
Lot 234 was estimated to sell for 2,500 to 3,000 EUR. It went for 2,750.1
Akira Toriyama's drawing was Lot 235 with an estimated sale price of 2,000 to 3,000 EUR. It sold for 15,000. That's 5 times the original estimated price.
