The E-Sylum: Volume 10, Number 48, November 25, 2007, Article 8 KING LOUIS XV'S COPY OF FAMED MEDAL BOOK FAILS TO SELL Hadrien Rambach writes: "I am very surprised to report that the medal book at Christie's in Paris did not sell at the auction this week. In the same sale, lot 233 sold for EUR 1,125 including Buyer's Premium - it was a 1645 edition of Goltzius, a rather worn copy bound in calf. "The current uncertainties of the market (stock, real-estate, gold, etc.) may explain this disappointing result, as could the strikes currently going on in France. Anyway, I therefore expect the owner to offer it now for private sale, so whoever buys it may certainly get a bargain!"
