Ever Wished You Could Find a Hidden Treasure for Under 20.00?
These are the top ten collecting stories based on real events.
. September 2012: Abstract Painting Brings Thousands
A Goodwill store in North Carolina sold a large abstract painting in 2011 for $9.99 to an amateur painter who wanted to reuse the canvas. A friend suggested she look up the artist’s name written on the back. It was Ilya Bolotowsky. Sotheby’s auctioned the painting on Sept. 21, 2012, for $34,375. The seller plans to pay bills and repair her house with the money.
One man's trash is another man's treasure (or woman) is so true! Hidden treasures are everywhere!
Maybe our time is coming to unmask a Marvel Comic worth thousands, or a rare, unheard recording by Elvis Presley...whatever it is; Comic, Magazine, Vinyl Record, Coin, Poster, Autograph...whatever...hidden treasures are everywhere.
