The Brokeback Mountain shirts sold for over
$100,000 and now a 1950 GMC truck used
in the movie has sold for over $60,000. The owner of
the truck, who is only 16, plans to use the profits to fund his college education. He had purchased the truck, which
was driven by Jake Gyllenhaal in the movie, at an auction after the film was made.We already showed you the Brokeback Mountain shirts, now the
1950 GMC pickup used in the movie is for sale. The black truck was driven by Jake Gyllenhaal and is seen during several
scenes in the movie. The truck has its original engine and is in good running condition. It was bought from High Meadow
Productions who handled transportation for the movie. The interior was restored for the movie and has a brown
leather bench seat with black dash. So far bidding has been light compared to the frenzy over the Brokeback
shirts and the
auction ends on March 30.Filed under: Apparel, Auctions, Celebrity Shopping
We mentioned the heated
auction for Jack's shirts from Brokeback Mountain a few weeks ago. The auction closed on
February 20 and the shirts sold for
$101,100.51. Gay.com has an interview with the winner, collector Tom Gregory. Gregory is the life partner of David
Bohnett, founder of GeoCities and the head of the David Bohnett
foundation. In the interview, Gregory says he will never separate the shirts and he won't let anyone try them on.Filed under: Estates
We mentioned recently that Heath
Ledger had put his Australian house on the
market, now he has chosen a home in Boerum Hill, Brooklyn. His $4.7 million home is a 150-year-old house with
four floors, a three-car garage and a ground-floor tenant. Ledger and Michelle Williams had been renting a smaller home
nearby. Ledger finds Brooklyn a little less paparazzi-heavy than Sydney and according to The Daily Telegraph he's a big hit
with the neighbors.Filed under: Apparel, Auctions
