Cher Auctions Off Personal Items

BEVERLY HILLS, Calif. (October 3, 2006) — Cher has cleared out her closets of all sorts of stuff and it’s up for auction through tomorrow at the Beverly Hilton Hotel.

The items include Bob Mackie gowns, antique furniture, paintings and an autographed football.

New York collector Brian Cummings is bidding on some of the gowns from Cher’s days on the “Sonny and Cher Show.” He calls them exquisite and a part of American history.

Greg Schreiner is a Santa Monica College piano teacher who has a revue called “Hollywood Revisited.” That’s why he’s bidding on some of Cher’s costumes.

Along with the costumes there is a signed football that former NFL quarterback Joe Namath gave to Cher. It went for eleven-hundred dollars. A Leroy Neiman painting of Sonny, Cher and Chastity as a toddler went for 40-thousand dollars.
