I bet $10Mil was the reserve and it was close! It was more like an item to make publicity of the auction house. Pretty sure the consignor consigned a few other Robinson items in this auction, if Goldin told him he couldn't set such high reserve he would probably go to Heritage or somewhere else. In fact, there are always a few items on Goldin has high reserves and didn't sold everytime.
This reminds me of the Cobb rare backs auction. Not all cards were priced to sell but some were. But at least Heritage would post the reserve at the end.
