Original ‘Born to Run’ manuscript to be auctioned for an estimated $100,000


Born to Run. It may be the greatest rock n’ roll song ever. Even if you’re not a Bruce Springsteen fan, you’ve probably heard it a million times and can recite the lyrics by heart. That makes the announcement that the original, handwritten manuscript of ‘Born to Run’ will be put up for auction. The rough manuscript is expected to fetch between $70,000 and $100,000.

The manuscript, dated to 1974, is handwritten by Springsteen in blue ink. There many notes in the margins and revisions throughout.

Springsteen fans will no doubt pour over the manuscript, noting the evolution of one of rock’s most enduring songs.


Sotheby’s said the document used to be in the collection of Springsteen’s former manager, Mike Appel, but the seller has not been revealed.

Springsteen has a new album, ‘High Hopes’, set for release on January 14.

The World’s Most Luxurious Cruise Ships


Cruises may have become more affordable over the past few decades with the arrival of low-end offers, known for their kitschy shows and all-you-can-eat buffets.

Below is our selection of luxurious cruise ships offering a level of comfort and service worthy of a five-star hotel.
