Donald Trump’s sketch of the Manhattan skyline that prominently displays Trump Tower at its center is on the block for an opening bid of $9,000, an auction house said Monday.
Trump was among a number of celebrities who included Sen. John McCain, actress Charlize Theron and former Yankees manager Joe Torre who provided sketches during a 2005 charity event to benefit literacy, said Nate D. Sanders Auctions.
Trump’s 11½-by-9-inch line drawing shows a series of buildings flanking Trump Tower with looping lines designating a street curling underneath.
His signature, “Donald J. Trump,” is in gold.
“Originally drawn by Trump for a charity event, and very rare, with only a handful of such drawings known,” the auction house says on its website.
Bidding ends Thursday.
Since he was elected president in November, the price of Trump memorabilia has been hot.
A 2007 Ferrari once owned by Trump went for a record $270,000 in April at a Florida auction.
A set of golf clubs Trump used at his Bedminster, NJ, resort before becoming president was sold for $29,798 at auction earlier this month in Boston.
