The unique series of famous athletes of the 1970s are valued at 10 million dollars, a handsome reward of 1 million is offered for their safe return. More from the Daily Mail and the New York Times.

Obviously stolen to order. The $1m reward is immaterial and it isn’t like they are ever going to appear on the open market any time. I’d say these are loooong gone.
Ok. So I’ve got all these Warhols in my place and I’ve been staring at them for a while now. I still don’t get it. You say they’re worth 10 million?!?! Ooops. ; – P
Wondering if one of those puppies is the disaster/icon “O.J. Simpson”?
