7. KITSCH OR NOT, Dogs Playing Poker paintings sell for big bucks.
A 1998 auction saw a Coolidge original sell for $74,000 at Sotheby's. Then in 2005, A Bold Bluff and Waterloo: Two were put up for auction in Doyle New York’s Dogs in Art Auction. Before they hit the block, predictions were made that the pair of rare paintings would fetch $30,000 to $50,000. But an anonymous bidder ultimately paid a whopping $590,400 for them, setting a record for the sale of Coolidge works.

What's especially fun about sock puppets is that you can make each one unique and individual, so that they each have special characters. And they don't have to be human––animals and aliens are great possibilities

It took me years and owning dogs to finally get the full genius of the irony of this painting.
I mean, have you ever seen a dog that could pull off a poker face? It is just not in them to hide their feelings. The tail is a pretty good tell too.
