100 pp.; 22.5 x 24.5 cm.; sewn bound; black-and-white & color; edition size unknown; unsigned and unnumbered; offset-printed Catalogue for the auction of works from the collection of Robert C. Scull held at Sotheby''s on October 18, 1973. Features works by Lee Bontecou, John Chamberlain, Dan Christensen, Willem de Kooning, Walter De Maria, Jim Dine, Mark di Suvero, Philip Guston, Robert Indiana, Jasper Johns, Franz Kline, Robert Morris, Barnett Newman, Claes Oldenburg, Larry Poons, Robert Rauschenberg, Larry Rivers, James Rosenquist, Lucas Samaras, George Segal, Frank Stella, Ernest Trova, Cy Twombly, Andy Warhol, Tom Wesselmann and Peter Young. ". The sale, held simultaneously in Sotheby Parke Bernet''s main selling gallery, at Madison Avenue and 76th Street, as well as in several television-equipped side galleries, was preceded by a brace of demonstrations attacking Mr. Scull, his taxicabs, and his collecting habits. Despite the uproar a number of record sales were recorded. . Jasper Johns''s works set five different auction records at the sale. His huge canvas, "Double White Map," executed in 1965, brought $240,000. The price was $90,000 higher than the previous high recorded for a Johns painting, reportedly paid by a private - European collector recently. It was double the auction record for a living American artist, which had been held by Georgia O''Keeffe, whose "Poppies" sold for $120,000 last March. It topped the auction record of $75,000 for a work of Pop Art held since 1970 by Roy Lichtenstein, as well as the auction record for any 20th-century American work of art. The previous holder was Yasuo Kuniyoshi with $200,000 for "Little Joe With Cow," sold in March. Johns''s sculpture., "Painted Bronze," consisting of bronze replicas of two Ballantine Beer cans on a platform was sold for $90,000 and established an auction record for a sculpture by a living American artist. Claes Oldenburg''s "Stove," at $45,000, had held the record since 1970. Their entry was not facilitated by a noisy, and well televised, demonstration by the Taxi Rank and File Coalition, a group of cab drivers vying for recognition as an opposing bargaining group for cabbies. They carried signs suggesting that Mr. Scull was a "parasite" who "lived off the backs of cabbies" so he could "be with the beautiful people."."--Fred Ferretti, "Scull''s U.S. Art Brings Record $2 Million," New York Times, October 19, 1973 Good. Scruffing to dust jacket with two long horizontal abrasions over cover image, mild edge wear and light foxing. Mild foxing to endpapers.
