Diane Keaton's photobooth strips match Abraham Lincoln's assassination hat at auction: here's what that tells us about the actress's photographic eye

Three photobooth photographs taken by Keaton in the late 1970s sold for $23,040, more than 57 times estimate.

When Diane Keaton died last October, I wrote about the immense photographic legacy that ran alongside her acting career. Her nine books, her rescued archives, her decades of work with a Rolleiflex that most people never knew about. Now, with the results in from Bonhams' four-part auction of her estate, it's clear that collectors understood something critics are still catching up to.

The sale totalled $4.2 million, with 100% of 700-plus lots sold, but some of the most telling results came not from the sale of her Annie Hall script or her Ralph Lauren wardrobe, but from her photographs.
