• ... that Robert Scull auction in 1973 of 50 Pop art works from his collection was viewed by the art establishment as the nouveaux riches cashing in? Source: "That auction, “The Collection of Robert C. Scull,” was the first of contemporary American art by a single seller. Its 50 lots of mostly Pop Art brought in $2.2 million (about $10.8 million in 2010 dollars), just above the high estimate, along with stunning evidence that the value of 1960s art would rise exponentially. It was immediately seen as a fall from grace for the Sculls — nouveaux riches cashing in — and the New York art world too." (and [1])
