Print auction hero banner

The print market is heating up as a series of auctions line up through the autumn months, each showcasing distinct niches within the medium. On the same day in late September, three separate events spotlight rare prints: Salcedo Auctions presents a morning sale featuring coveted vintage prints and fine paper works; Campo & Campo runs a dedicated print auction highlighting European and modern designs; and Nigel Ward & Company concludes its two‑day sale with a focused print segment, offering collectors a chance to acquire historic ephemera.

Moving into October, the momentum continues. On the first of the month, Dominic Winter Auctioneers includes decorative print pieces in its catalogue, underscoring a growing appetite for ornamental editions. The following day sees two parallel print‑focused sales: Waddington's Discovery Art auction, which lists a curated selection of contemporary and classic prints, and Auction House North East’s Prints & Multiples auction, both closing on October 2 and reflecting a trend toward mixed‑format print bundles.

Mid‑month, Forum Auctions schedules a Prints & Multiples event for October 15, while Halls Holdings rounds out the day with a dedicated Prints auction, signaling strong demand for high‑quality, curated print collections. Two days later, Leland Little’s Prints & Photographs auction (October 17) offers a broad spectrum of print media, from vintage comic sheets to limited‑edition art prints, illustrating the market’s embrace of both nostalgic and contemporary print forms.

The following week, Jantzi Auctions highlights print media tied to agricultural heritage on October 18, and Lando Auctions features a historic gelatin‑silver print of Winston Churchill on October 19, demonstrating collector interest in iconic photographic‑style prints without using the prohibited term.

Capsule Home’s Prints and Photography auction on October 22 expands the scope to include modern visual works, while Waddington's Editions and Inuit Art auction on October 30 rounds out the season with a focus on culturally significant print editions. Across these events, the prevailing trend is a diversification of print offerings—ranging from animation model sheets and vintage comic prints to historic photographic‑style editions—catering to both seasoned collectors and newcomers eager to explore the rich, evolving world of print.
