September arrives like a Hoyt Wilhelm or R. A. Dickey pitch, the speed slow, and the outcome uncertain. But we have been here before and know, by the end of September, that the month will resolve itself nicely. At this point we just don’t know how.
The number of events scheduled already ensures the month will set a September record. Such records are now routine but it’s nevertheless encouraging that, as we head into the traditional new auction year – September to August – the schedule continues to filling in. Over the past 9 years the number of September sales covered on AE has steadily increased.
