A sketch of the Empire State Building drawn by President Donald Trump has sold at auction for USD 16,000.
Julien's Auctions says the 12-inch-by-9-inch black marker depiction of the iconic New York City skyscraper was created by Trump for a charity auction in Florida during the time he opened his Mar-a-Lago estate as a private club in 1995.
Julien's says the piece signed by Trump went for less than USD 100 the first time it was sold. It was estimated to go for USD 8,000 to USD 12,000 at the auction that took place in Los Angeles and online yesterday.
The buyer has not been named.
The auction house says a portion of the proceeds of the sale are going to benefit WHDD-FM, a National Public Radio station in Connecticut.
