Not quite so expensive, but at €29,000 (£25,020) raising a much higher than predicted and record sum, was Le Surréalisme en 1947, a slightly browned example of the deluxe edition of this important catalogue.
Containing 24, mostly coloured prints in different techniques, it also has a velvet binding to which is attached a painted foam rubber breast by Duchamp and, on the back, bears the words “Priere de Toucher”.
In 2010, Christie’s New York sold for $210,000 what was described as the ‘unique’ original of this binding breast jest.
