trog Posted April 7, 2016 Share Posted April 7, 2016 I saw this in the local paper today Tutu worn by legendary ballerina sells for £2,600 at Stourbridge auction. The auction house is across the road from where I work, and had I known about this sale I would have gone. There were several lots with connections to Markova - the catalogue is here A quick look reveals lots 675 to 706 are the ones of most interest to the readers of the board. This is the same auction house which a couple of years ago sold the tennis dress from the famous Athena poster. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alison Posted April 7, 2016 Share Posted April 7, 2016 I think this is the trouble with specialist auctions like this: how do you find the right auction house, and how do you get the information to potentially interested parties? See Yolanda's thread on identifying a Fonteyn tutu here: http://www.balletcoforum.com/index.php?/topic/12064-help-identifying-fonteyn-tutu-from-late-1950s/ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's a shame Trog, as Janet mentioned that the sale was coming up on the Fonteyn tutu thread. Sorry you didn't see it.
