Slash, the collector: Guitarist's decor up for auction
Julien's Auctions is selling belongings from the guitarist Slash on March 26. After reviewing the lots up for bidding, writer David A. Keeps declares in a Q&A with Slash that the home furnishings "strike some unexpected chords": an amusing ballerina tapestry, Victoriana such as the bedside lamps pictured above right, Asian antiques, African carvings, Indian brass, movie memorabilia and plenty of boy’s toys. And lots of skulls. The table below -- glass top set on a resin skeleton base -- was a gift from Charlie Sheen. Look for more in our photo gallery.

Isn't that ballerina tapestry the same as the painting in the Disney Haunted mansion? If not, it's definitely in the same spirit/style. Anyway... Kinda silly story. "Slash has a yard sale". Stop the presses. Even Slash would probably agree. (Yeah, auction, not yard sale, I know. It's sarcasm- auctions are rich people's yard sales).
