I would have liked that Goldberg Variations interview script with
annotations by GG which sold (for $2500) on ebay recently:

'This is one of only two copies of the original script for the
"Goldberg Variations" radio interview with Pulitzer Prize winning
music critic Tim Page, issued in 2002 as part of "A State of
Wonder" on SONY Classical.  From Page's personal collection,
the script features markings by Gould in his customary black
felt-tip pen but is not signed; also annotated by Page.'

The only collectible I've bought is one of the 1955 Goldberg
Variations LPs, which was much more affordable :)
