As a devoted collector of Americana, I would really love to have this $35 million dollar Durand hanging behind my dog-chewed sofa. It grieves me to the core that dimestore slut Alice Walton beat me to it. It's so beautiful.
I'll keep saving my money and try to get in on the next round.
Or I could hang this lovely Jimmy Carter quilt on my wall instead.
Or, as has been suggested, a magnificent velvet Elvis.
