Neil Leifer has achieved global recognition as one of the world’s foremost sports
photographers. On December 2 & 3, Guernsey’s will present Mr. Leifer’s personal collection
of his own vintage photographic prints plus a broad array of noteworthy prints he has
received over his lifetime from other highly regarded photographers. The 700-lot event
(of which 96% will be sold without minimum reserve)
will be live at NYC’s
Bohemian National Hall and available to absentee bidders on
liveauctionneers.comand
invaluable.com.
Perhaps best known for his iconic images of the late Muhammad Ali, two hundred of Neil’s
photos have graced the cover of Sports Illustrated. From the legendary Giants / Colts 1958
overtime classic to Secretariat capturing the Derby, Leifer photos covering the world of
sport are nothing short of riveting. Indeed, half of this event will consist of his older prints
signed by Neil and, in many cases, by Ali or the other iconic sports figures depicted.
Although an auction of Neil Leifer’s work would, by itself, make for an important sale, the
significance of this event is multiplied when factoring in hundreds of important vintage
images taken by approx. ninety other highly regarded 20th century photographers who Neil
befriended. A sampling: Margaret Bourke-White, Alfred Eisenstaedt, Steve McCurry, Carl
Mydans, Gordon Parks, Hy Peskin and Annie Leibovitz.
To acquire the catalogue and/or learn more about this unprecedented auction, please
