A sketch of the New York City skyline drawn by President Donald Trump fetched nearly $30,000 at an auction Thursday night.

The piece received 11 bids as of late Thursday and ultimately sold for $29,184, according to a statement from Nate D. Sanders Auctions, reports CNN.

The 11.5’ by 9’ (29.2cm by 22.9cm) sketch of the New York City skyline is composed of six high-rises depicted as mongline rectangles and triangles, Xinhua news agency reported.

In the centre of the drawing is the Trump tower, the President’s namesake property in downtown New York, which stands out from all the block buildings with some exclusive details.

Below the buildings are wavy lines and Trump’s signature scrawled with a golden pen.

Showing no signs of adjustments or colouring, the drawing may have taken less than a minute to finish.

According to the auction house, the drawing was made in 2005 for a charity event aiming to eliminate illiteracy.
