Elvis Presley Triavil Prescription Pill Bottle, EST, $4,000-6,000
Julien’s Auctions’ Music Icons sale is offering all sorts of goodies. Elvis Presley’s empty prescription bottles are right up my collecting alley (I have a bounced check from Courtney Love!) But what’s more 80s than the embellished cropped tux jacket Madonna (& Rosanna Arquette) wore in Desperately Seeking Susan? And its $80-100,000 estimate seems perfectly reasonable if your last name is Ciccone or Winfrey.
The sale will be held at the Hard Rock Cafe in NYC, Saturday, May 21. The lots are on view there today through Friday. For more backstory on the movie check out this post I did to celebrate the 30th anniversary of the cult film. Kids, if you haven’t seen it, it’s a MUST-SEE.
Embellished cropped tuxedo jacket designed by Santo Loquasto and worn by Rosanna Arquette and Madonna in “Desperately Seeking Susan” (1985). Also seen in “Into the Groove” music video. EST: $80,000-$100,000
