Auction News
Original works by Edward Gorey continue to do well at auction, and some pieces do amazingly well. Heritage Auctions sold this TV Guide color piece (published February 6, 1988) for $15,000.00 (including buyer's premium).
Never Get on an Elevator Alone with a Foreign Woman is a stunning 7.75" x 5" pen & ink and watercolor painting with everything you could wish for in an Edward Gorey piece. It is nice to see that Heritage is publishing the known provenance as part of the description of their listings. Hopefully, this will become the standard practice of all auction houses and dealers.
