A
Scottish auction house said a pair of bloomers once worn by Queen
Victoria sold for $14,973, far more than the expected $4,791. Edinburgh
auction house Lyon & Turnbull said the silk bloomers were sold to an
anonymous bidder as part of an auction of royal memorabilia belonging
to the Forbes family. An oil painting of Queen Victoria and her servant,
John Brown, who received the painting from Victoria, sold for $231,993
at the auction.
