A British man purchased this drawing, done and signed by an 11 year-old Andy Warhol, at a Las Vegas yard sale for a mere $5. According to the buyer, the seller's aunt cared for the pop artist as a child. The sketch has been appraised at over $2 million.

Hahaha so cool and love the humorous article. Hate Warhol though!
Funny.
As if I needed another excuse to go to yard sales! LOL
Great story.
I find it creepy that he bought it for only $5 knowing it was worth so much more, even if it was from a "druggie". (There would be no reason to purchase it otherwise since it's so incredibly ugly.)
Brittlebar, exactly my thoughts. Except, I would say its even more dodgy that it was purchased from a drug addict, that is just taking advantage of the disadvantaged.
