It’s the season of ripe pumpkins, but a painting of a poison apple brought a record $30,800 at an auction Saturday, Christie’s East said.

The 12 1/2-by-16-inch celluloid for the animated film “Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs” features a scene of the witch standing by her boiling caldron, dipping an apple in poison. It was bought by Russ Cochran, a dealer and collector from West Plains, Mo., a spokeswoman for the gallery said.
