Student Auction Scores 'Soprano' Shirt
The Village Community School — the private school of choice for the West Village's finest future bobos — is having their annual benefit auction, where one can bid online for all sorts of high-end items (like a week in Venice, which starts at $1000). Included in the posh array of desirables is Tony Soprano's "bloodied" shirt from the show's Season Six premiere, worn and autographed by James Gandolfini. The item is expected to fetch so much money that bidding will only be conducted on eBay.
Of course, it helps that Gandolfini's son is a student at the school — the shirt sure beats his bake sale contributions.
