Srila Prabhupada Memorabilia On Offer
BY SHYAMANANDA DAS
USA, Jun 14 (VNN) Dear Prabhus: Please accept my obeisances. All Glories to Srila Prabhupada!
A long time collector and custodian of Srila Prabhupada memorabilia has decided to place two items for offer to the Vaishnava community:
1. Srila Prabhupada's 1968 white Mercedes SD 250 S (gasoline, dual carb)- used in San Francisco and Los Angeles between 1971 and 1975. It has been maintained since 1974 by Bhakta das Prabhu's mother, then ex-wife Saranam dasi in California, then in North Carolina. The transcendental vehicle of the pure devotee is in very good condition, runs very well and is fully roadworthy, having had major engine, brake, and other work done over the years. Bhakta das has provided a long authentication letter with memories of Srila Prabhupada in the Mercedes.
2. Srila Prabhupada's Los Angeles apartment shoes, more like slip-ons, dark brown and quite well worn- definitely not a new pair that were maybe worn once or twice. They were given to Lilasakti dasi by Sruta Kirti and added to this collection in 1988. Very good condition. A letter of history and authenticating documents will accompany the re devotee's shoes.
Asking: US$12,500 each, or best offer. Photos upon request; serious inquiries only, please. The reasons for selling will be provided to interested parties.
