New York's Murder Memorabilia

Valentine’s Day is only 8 months and 14 bitter arguments away, so why not stock up early on half-assed gifts, like a piece of the white picket fence which bore witness to JFK’s assassination ($5,550)? Or perhaps Scott Peterson’s sweet-swelling maneur company’s business card ($665.50)? The Americana at New York auction house boasts a controversial mix of morbid items, due in part to the Law & Order empire + America’s deafening obsession with death and US-Weekly inspired celebrity (much to Blottered's satisfaction).

Some of the soon to be auctioned items include Karen Carpenter’s index finger, Charles Manson’s tie-dye kit; Liz Phair's latest album; Henry VIII's penis; Marilyn Monroe’s diaphragm (with a complimentary pink rhinestone decorated mirror-compact); and Princess Diana’s corpse.
