据路透社11月22日报道，根据克里斯蒂拍卖行的说法，这组总长度为16页的诗歌是用铅笔手写而成的，作者在这本诗集的扉页上用兰色墨水写下了“无题诗”字样，而在其它大部分作品的结尾处署名为迪伦或迪伦主义。这些诗歌是迄今为止被拍卖的年代最为久远的迪伦手稿，其成交价格也创下了他历次物品拍卖的新高。拍得该诗集的是一位对迪伦颇感兴趣但身份不明的欧洲买家。

　　迪伦于1959年进入明尼苏达大学学习。当时，他还名叫罗伯特·齐墨曼。1960年底，他便离开了大学，而此时他已摇身一变成为了民谣歌手兼歌曲作者鲍勃·迪伦。随后，迪伦便前往位于纽约格林尼治村的民歌俱乐部，在那里开始了自己辉煌的音乐历程。

　　A collection of poems written by legendary rock poet Bob Dylan as a student at the University of Minnesota in 1960 sold for $78,000 Monday in a Rock & Pop Memorabilia auction at Christie's.

　　The 16 pages of poems hand-written in pencil formed the earliest Dylan manuscript ever offered for auction and it fetched the highest auction price to date for the acclaimed songwriter, according to Christie's.

　　A title page was inscribed in blue ink "Poems Without Titles," with the majority of the poems signed Dylan or Dylanism.

　　The poetry was acquired by an unidentified private European interest.

　　Dylan arrived at the college in 1959 as freshman Robert Zimmerman from upstate Hibbing and left at the end of 1960 as folk singer and songwriter Bob Dylan, headed to make his mark on the folk scene in New York's Greenwich Village.

　　The second-highest priced item in the sale that grossed $661,536 was Eric Clapton's Fender composite Stratocaster electric guitar, circa 1959, which sold for $36,000.
