Elvis Presley's gun permit application for sale












Telegraph:

Elvis Presley fans have been given the rare opportunity to buy the only authenticated set of his fingerprints in existence, as long as they have £75,000 to spare.

and get a load of this:

Other lots up for sale include a bustier worn by Marilyn Monroe during the filming of Some Like it Hot, the lyrics of Sexy Sadie hand-carved into a piece of wood by John Lennon, and a portrait of Jimi Hendrix on a Yamaha Pacifier guitar painted by Rolling Stone Ronnie Wood.

The most sought-after items are expected to be the last notebook written by Jim Morrison of the Doors and the former Beatles manager Brian Epstein's own copy of his signed contract with the group, which alone is expected to fetch £250,000.

I was leaning toward the Ronnie Wood painting, so I guess we won't be bidding against one another.
