An as-new copy of this stunning and scarce deluxe auction catalogue, produced by Christie's for the sale of Princess Diana's dresses to benefit the AIDS Crisis Trust and the Royal Marsden Hospital Cancer Fund. Signed and numbered by Diana, only a few months before her death, the sale of her 80 dresses raised over $3.6 million dollars. Each successful bidder received a copy of this signed catalogue, which was also available for sale for $2,000. Unsigned cloth copies and a smaller paperback format were also issued.
