Austin Productions sculptures are usually for sale at higher prices in stores and art galleries. You can find them online and in stores for as high as $1,500. Looking at the range of sale prices of Austin Productions sculptures at commercial art auctions a valuation of $450 makes sense.
Beginning in the 1950s, the Brooklyn-based Austin Productions began producing replicas of iconic sculptures like Rodin’s “The Thinker, ” the Venus de Milo and more. In later decades, Austin Productions began to branch into postmodernist sculptures, bringing an entirely new look and feel to the brand.
