Ok, here it goes:
Feb, 2016, one of them was assigned a lot #292. Both owners claimed that their drawing was
featured in a book by H.Asmodi, Pablo Picasso, Ballettzeichnungen,
Feldafing 1956. The sale was cancelled because obviously one of them
is a forgery.
The Picasso Foundation was called-in to examine both of them.
The first drawing had no gallery receipts (lot#292) and was smaller in size.
The second drawing had a receipt from a gallery in Zurich. The first
drawing lot #292was declared unauthentic, fake Picasso by Picasso Foundation.
The drawing with the gallery receipts was declared authentic and
placed for sale as ot #176, June 23 2016, London:

The first, the fake Picasso was then placed to a different auction
house called Bishop and Miller Auctioneers. They were contacted by
Christie's London who told them that they are about to sale a known
forgery of Picasso, but Bishop and Miller ignored their outrage.
They place it for sale withholding the whole truth about it. Sold it
as lot#600 on their September, 2016 sale.
To this day they have not refunded the buyer and claim that they did nothing wrong
