How much do you love Eminem?
Where here's a way to prove it.
Adam Graham of the Detroit News reports that the star rapper is selling off parts of his childhood home on Detroit's east side to celebrate the 16th anniversary of "The Marshall Mathers LP." The home at 19946 Dresden St. was demolished in 2013. Items will be sold on the Internet and some proceeds will go to the Marshall Mathers Foundation, which provides funds for at-risk youth in Michigan and the U.S.
Graham reports:
Bricks from the home, framed in a plexiglass collectible case with a commemorative plaque on the side, are available for $313, and come with a reissued “Marshall Mathers LP” cassette. The bricks, 700 of which are available, come with a numbered certificate of authenticity which includes Eminem’s handwritten signature.
In addition to the bricks, also available are dog tags that spell out the home’s address, 19946 Dresden St. ($28, or $42 with a “MMLP” cassette”) which were re-purposed from the wood of the home. The dog tags come packaged in a box modeled after the home. A deluxe package, which includes a T-shirt, cassette, dog tag and authentic brick, retails for $350.
