This month there are 43 events posted to the auction calendar. This passes for a quiet month but it is actually the busiest August on record. A generation ago auction houses took August off but not anymore. The calendars in the high months are so busy – with a hundred sales that it has made sense to move into a 24/7/365 auction schedule. We are there now, always connected to the Internet, able to follow sales on line and bid electronically and on the phone.
