Normally when artwork is damaged, you’d assume the price would be discounted, but not if it’s a bullet-hole caused by the late great Dennis Hopper’s gun. The Warhol print of Mao Zedong sold at auction for $302,500. Its pre-sale estimate was between $20,000 and $30,000. As the story goes, he stumbled into his own one night on what must have been a binge of some pretty good drugs and thought the image of the Chinese leader was staring at him, so he shot it.
