Some rare Tupac collectibles are now for sale, TMZ reports. A never-before-seen booking photo and a prison ID from the rapper’s time at New York’s Clinton Correctional Facility are available for purchase online at MomentsInTime.com.
According to TMZ, the booking photo is going for $35,000 and the prison ID is selling for more than double that, priced at $75,000. The ID will also come with a note that reads “I lost my ID and need a new one… thank you, signed by Tupac. His first prison ID was sold in 2019 for $30,000, up from a starting auction price of $2,000. The new one for sale passed between a few family members’ hands before a private collector purchased it.
In 1995, Tupac served eleven months in prison after being convicted of sexual abuse charges. The late rapper’s name has been in the media as of late due to an arrest being made connected to his murder. Learn more about the first arrest in Tupac's murder case in The FADER's in-depth explainer.
