There are a lot of strange things that end up on the auction block. A slice of Prince Charles and Lady Diana Spencer’s wedding cake was auctioned off in 2015, thirty four years after the wedding for just over $1,300. In 2015 Sotheby’s sold a lock of hair from the head of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart for more than $50,000. Another slice of wedding cake, this time from the wedding of Queen Elizabeth II and the Duke of Edinburgh in 1947 sold in 2015 for a little over $700. Winston Churchill’s dentures sold for $23,000 in 2010.
Recently, Indianapolis resident David Charles was arrested for allegedly selling stolen brains from the Indiana Medical History Museum on eBay’s auction site for about $100 each. The sale of Adolph Hitler’s underwear for over $5,000 may be one of the strangest things of all.
