<p>Jtboat: moved Talk:Treasury Auctions for the Week to Rosa Parks Keepsake</p> <hr /> <div>Interesting read about Rosa Parks<br /> <br /> &quot;NEW YORK CITY -- It was near the end of a long day in 2006, and Joanne Grant, an archivist for world-famous Guernsey's Auctioneers &amp; Brokers, was exhausted.<br /> <br /> She had spent the day rummaging through the cramped attic of Rosa Parks' modest home on Detroit's west side, in search of historic treasure.<br /> <br /> Just as Grant was about to call it quits, she spotted something in the corner. Tucked under the eaves was a shoebox.<br /> <br /> Jackpot.<br /> <br /> It was filled with dozens of letters and papers containing Parks' recollections about her life before and after she became a civil rights icon in December 1955 by refusing to give up her seat on a Montgomery, Ala., bus to a white man.<br /> <br /> &quot;At that moment, I realized these were among the most important things we had found in Detroit. They are remarkable documents,&quot; Grant said.&quot;<br /> <br /> <br /> Excellent piece of history in my opinion.</div>

<p>Jtboat: moved User talk:Jtboat to Neat Things on the Auction Block</p> <hr /> <div>I'm a big fan of auctions in todays economy and just came across this interesting read in the Washington Post. A little out of my price range but still interesting to look at.<br /> <br /> <br /> &quot;Darren Julien, president of Julien’s Auctions, says original artwork by Andy Warhol, Pablo Picasso, Henry Miller and Curtis himself will be sold at an auction of property from the actor’s estate on Sept. 17.<br /> <br /> <br /> Curtis’ own paintings and ceramics are among the items for sale, along with pottery and prints by Picasso, which are expected to fetch more than $3,000 each. Also up for auction is memorabilia from Curtis’ many movies, including the sailor jacket he wore during a kissing scene with Marilyn Monroe in “Some Like It Hot.”<br /> <br /> <br /> The items will be on view at Julien’s Auctions in Beverly Hills, Calif., beginning Sept. 6.&quot;<br /> <br /> <br /> While I'm currently not able to purchase, it's just amazing what you can find doing a little search.</div>
