In a special auction held last night, a platinum award for Pink Floyd's The Wall album was sold for
€31,500 (approximately US$41,150) in aid of the Tsunami appeal.
The auction was organised by Greek National TV (ERT) and the platinum disc was a gift from Franka Wright, the Greek fashion designer who married Richard Wright in 1984. She stated that Richard loves Greece so much that he was very happy to do it. Franka presented the award herself to the eventual winner of the auction - a Greek man from Filothei, Athens. The award was one of many special items donated to the auction, which was set to raise a lot of money for the appeal.
Our thanks to George over at the Greek PF Fan Club for this news.
