May 25th: On This Day in 1967 - John Lennon's Rolls Royce

May 25, 1967: John Lennon's psychedelic Rolls Royce was delivered on this day and caused an uproar, which included the Rolls Royce Company raising a formal complaint. He had bought the car from Rolls Royce in 1965 and was dissatisfied with the color, so had it painted in a psychedelic pattern. The car sold years later at Sotheby's for $2,299.000.00.
