Big, fat, liar's stuff for sale!

They're having an auction of "psychic" Jeanne Dixon's crap. Come and get it.
Dixon, who died in Washington in 1997, was at one time the most celebrated psychic in America, if not the English-speaking world. She was also a fixture in Washington, a grand doyenne who corresponded with presidents and was one of Nancy Reagan's astrologers. She grew wealthy as a nationally syndicated columnist and author of seven books. Her most famous prediction was the assassination of John F. Kennedy. (Okay, she also said that we would be in World War III with China in 1958 and that we'd have a female president by now.)
Below is a pathetic statement on how gullible people are.
Dixon kept everything. There are several letters from Ronald Reagan to Dixon and her husband, James, a Washington real estate executive who died in 1984, plus books, letters and telegrams from Billy Graham, Brigitte Bardot, Betty Ford, John Glenn, Joan Crawford, Richard Nixon and Harry Truman. There is a framed copy of a 1991 Senate roll-call vote on the nomination of Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas with a cryptic notation, "Dear Mrs. Dixon, Wow. You hit it right on the head. Many heartfelt thanks. Love, J.P."
She probably "predicted" that women won't be seduced by the mixture of pubic hair and Coke. She at least got that one right.
