I wonder how much the 75cent royalty check went for.
$20,480..

That headline is misleading. The auctioneer is gratified at the attendance and camaraderie of Sondheim fans in the room.
But he's not quite stunned at the bidding-
But having been in the auction business for a long time, I’ve seen this kind of thing happen before. It’s not unusual for a bidder who really wants to corner the attention on a lot to jump ahead as a tactic to see if he could secure the thing.

Someone said here the other day that auction houses routinely underprice estimates in order to draw people in.
