Impressive figures. Andy Warhol was a genius, both artistically and commercially. The creator of Pop Art. Thanks a lot, Jaime.

Many tha ks, I shall add it. And here is something amazing

Big $ sound for guitar with loud history
Central Station | 21 May 2018
A guitar that played a role in Bob Dylan's artistic evolution from folk music to rock fetched US$500,000 (HK$3.89 million) at auction in New York. The 1965 Fender Telecaster that belonged to Robbie Robertson, Dylan's guitarist, was used by Dylan, Eric Clapton and George Harrison. The guitar marked the singer's path from folk stylings like The Times They Are A-Changin (1964), to electric rock, including 1965's Like a Rolling Stone. Dylan is appearing with his band in Hong Kong on August 4.
Other guitars that went under the hammer by auctioneer Julien's in cluded George Harrison's first electric guitar, a Hofner Club 40 for US$430,000 and a Fender Telecaster rosewood guitar made for Elvis Presley in 1968 for US$115,200.
More than 40 years after his death Elvis items still fetch handsome prices.A decorated Elvis belt, which he wore during a concert in Hawaii in 1972, sold for US$354,400. And a star-shaped diamond ring donated by Elvis to an admirer at a concert in 1975 brought in US$100,000.

Hi poppii!! Please note that my name is Jaime, not Jamie LOL. Anyways, Warhol never met Elvis, this info I gor from his last boyfriend who was asked about it. His answer was that he adored Elvis, listened to his records all of the time, but never met nor saw him. Warmest Jaime
