Sorry for the private Facebook group post but this was the only place I could find with info on the sale.
Pretty crazy bidding and a price indicative of just how much the Magic art market has grown.
Wow that's quite a price tag. I know some others have gone for high 80k+ but hadn't seen any break 100k yet. Is this the most we've seen original Magic art go for?
Yeah good question, this is definitely one of the highest of all time. Demonic Tutor sold for $168k which I think was the previous record until Force of Will sold for $350k a short while ago.
That one is so far and above anything else that I can’t imagine anything other than maybe Black Lotus or some combo of iconic art + special interest from the buyer will ever crack that but who knows.
