The RM Sotheby’s Hershey 2015 sale was held October 8\u20139 in Hershey, Pennsylvania, resulting in $16,344,387 and a 96 percent sell-through rate. This year’s auction results represent the company\u2019s strongest performance in Pennsylvania, besting its 2014 total by more than 16 percent.<\/p>\n

A feature attraction of the AACA Eastern Division Fall Meet, RM\u2019s 2015 two-day Hershey sale welcomed bidders from 20 countries, with more than 20 percent representing new clientele.The top sale honors went to the 1913 Pierce-Arrow Model 66-A Seven-Passenger Touring, chassis 66667, which sold for $830,500 to applause from the packed auction room, after back-and-forth bids from interested parties both in the room and over the Internet. The Pierce-Arrow easily surpassed its pre-sale estimate of $550,000 – $650,000.<\/p>\n

Joining the Model 66-A at the top of the list was the 1911 Oldsmobile Autocrat known as Yellow Peril, chassis 65877, that brought a final price of $698,500. Rounding out the top three and leading the selection of early European vehicles in the sale was a 1914 Rolls-Royce 40\/50 HP Silver Ghost Landaulette, chassis 25EB, which brought a final $577,500 after a strong opening bid.<\/p>\n

\u201cHershey proved once again to be the perfect venue for the offering of important early automotive design,\u201d said Gord Duff, Specialist, RM Sotheby\u2019s. \u201cBrass Era powerhouses were the hit of the week, with the most exciting moment coming as our auctioneer Max Girardo opened bidding on the 1913 Pierce-Arrow, igniting a fierce competition that had the crowd roaring with every raise of a paddle. At another level of the market, expert restorations stood out, with top tier examples bringing well-deserved prices.\u201d<\/p>\n

A number of restored Classic Era automobiles exceeded pre-sale estimates, headed by a 1923 Duesenberg Model A Sport Phaeton, chassis 977, offered from 67 years of ownership, at $374,000, a new auction record for the model. Another example was the restored 1924 Marmon Model 34C Two-Passenger Speedster, chassis B2-5001, a best-of-category car boasting numerous awards, which sold for $203,500. Additional sales of note included a 1934 Pierce-Arrow Eight Two-Passenger Coupe, chassis 2080431, nearly doubling its estimate at $154,000, along with a 1936 Chrysler Imperial Airflow Sedan, chassis 7015285, at $176,000.<\/p>\n

Memorabilia also achieved great prices, kicking off the auction on both Thursday and Friday evening. Stand outs included collectibles offered from the Richard Roy Estate Collection, most notably a trio of scale model replicas of World War II aircraft, led by the North American Aviation P-51 Mustang Model Plane at $21,850, more than triple its top estimate.<\/p>\n
