I see Sotheby's has an interesting charity auction of photography from 
the San Francisco Pier 24 collection. Here is the link.

However, if you have the time, you can look at all 200+ lots which in 
some cases, like Richard Avedon's "Family" contain multiple images (69) 
under a single lot number. In the auction, there are some fascinating 
images that are rarely seen, but others are very famous. There are 
certainly some striking images amongst the collection.
