George Washington's personal, annotated copy of the Constitution was up for auction today. Estimated price was set at between $2M and $3M.
Turns out, went for a titch more than that.

9.8+ Million USD.
Oh well, it was going to be hard to scrape up that much for a book anyway. /sigh

I'd still rather have Annie Oakley's shotgun.

I'd sell it to buy Annie's. I'd feel different about Jefferson's.

They'd probably use it as toilet paper.
