Bonus Episode: Berkshire Museum Update, Settlement Approved
About this episode
Katie and Steve update listeners on the Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court's decision approving the settlement reached between the Attorney General and the Berkshire Museum, which allows the Museum to sell 40 of its most valuable works of art through Sotheby's with some (minor) conditions. Katie and Steve go over the terms of the settlement and discuss their reservations about the form (if not substance) of this resolution. Since the recording of this bonus episode, it has been reported that the yet to open Lucas Museum in Los Angeles will purchase the painting Shuffleton's Barbershop, Norman Rockwell's iconic masterpiece. The rest of the works will be sold gradually at auction until a total of $55 million in proceeds is reached.
