The Andy Warhol Campbell's Tomato Soup Bag was made for the pop artist's show at the Boston Museum of Art in 1964 -- but the autograph could be all yours. As Warhol's iconic images began to spread everywhere, his celebrity nearly vaulted ahead of his work. The 17 by 21-inch bag (MINT) with the Campell's soup can looks as ready to tote as the day it was handed out. It has been lovingly preserved in a wood frame, and his autograph, "Andy Warhol 64" (9.0) is discreetly displayed in a rectangular window carved into the back. Bag a piece of pop art history -- and the biggest name in the business.
