An anonymous bidder ponied-up nearly $200,000 Thursday (12/5) for a single page, rough draft of hand written lyrics to what would become Born To Run, the title song to Bruce Springsteen's epic 1975 album. The $197,000 top bid blew past the pre-auction estimate that the rare artifact would fetch between $70 and $100,000. The page from a spiral notebook was auctioned by Sotheby's on behalf of an unidentified seller.
