Are Vargas prints worth anything?

1 Answer
Are Vargas prints worth anything?
Yes, some Vargas prints are worth something. In 2010, Alberto Vargas's painting Vargas Girl, Playboy Illustration, October 1963 sold for more than $179,000 at an auction. However, selling prices for his prints tend to be in the hundreds of dollars. The medium, history, image quality and condition will all impact the potential value of the artist's work. By the late 1980s, Vargas's name had become synonymous with pin-up girls, which he portrayed in illustrations, paintings, lithographs and other works. If you own a Vargas print, a certified appraiser or experienced dealer can assist you with the valuation process. Find Alberto Vargas prints for sale on 1stDibs.
