Move over, Scarlett Johansson’s dirty tissue.
There’s a new bodily-fluid laden celebrity item on the auction block: a
vial of Reagan’s blood. Or, more specifically, a vial that contains
“residue” of the Gipper’s blood.
And, as you’d expect, the Ronald Reagan Presidential Foundation and others are none too pleased with the whole thing.
Reuters
explains that the anonymous seller acquired the vial from his or her
mother, who took it from Bio-Science Laboratories, which did the blood
testing for George Washington Hospital. The blood in the vial was
reportedly collected shortly after the 1981 assassination attempt on
Reagan’s life.
