Locati's April Auction was held on April 16th at noon. Co-owner Michael Locati said, "This was another good sale with a diverse offering of quality lots". Included in this auction was a Tiffany Studios hanging fixture which sold for $6,000. An Anne Packard Oil On Board outperformed the estimate of $500 to $1,000 with a hammer of $2,600. Michael Locati said, "Although many 19th-century academic landscapes are selling poorly in this market, works like the one we offered by Anne Packard are sought after". A Kazak Rug had a realized price of $1,300.
Salvador Dali’s Playing Cards sold for $14,000. The lithographs' estimated value was set at $10,000 to $15,000. "We were happy to see the Dali prints sell at the higher end of our estimate" co-owner Michael states. In the late 1960s, Salvador Dalí partnered with a French printing firm to produce 17 designs released as limited-edition playing cards.
