UPDATE: Artcurial May 2014 Auction ($3.6 million cover!)

The May 24th Artcurial auction in Paris saw the all-time comic art price set when a Tintin cover (estimated at a mere 700K-900K €) ended up going for over $3.6 million after fees. Featuring scenes from 21 years of Tintin, it isn't too surprising that it surpassed all other foreign art. Another cover hit $1.3 million and two others went for over $200K.

Due to the volume of $100K+ foreign sales, I increased the minimum for pages and covers to $150K.
