The 1984 Summer Olympics torch that Caitlyn Jenner carried through Lake Tahoe, Nevada ( when she was known as Bruce Jenner ), is being auctioned off, Page Six has noted.
The 24-inch torch, which has a brass finish and leather handle, is being offered by Heritage Auctions at its Platinum Night Sports Auction in Chicago on July 30. Insiders say it could fetch as much as $20,000.
It's the first major piece of Jenner memorabilia to go to auction since the winner of the 1976 Olympic decathlon gold medal became Caitlyn Jenner.
