Elon Musk’s college ex auctioning off ever-seen pics, signed items — some going for over $10K
A birthday card Elon Musk gave his college girlfriend is up for auction and expected to fetch more than $10,000 — one of dozens of items put on the block by his Ivy League sweetheart.
Jennifer Gwynne, who dated the future billionaire when the two were enrolled at the University of Pennsylvania, is auctioning the personal trove off photos and mementos.
The birthday card Musk gave Gwynne in December 15 reads: “Happy birthday Jennifer (aka Boo Boo). Love, Elon.”
The signed card is expected to sell for more than $10,000 when bidding ends Wednesday.
Gwynne told DailyMail.com that “Boo Boo” was what Musk called her when teasing her playfully.
Another popular item, a dollar bill signed by Musk, has a top bid of $7,604 as of early Monday morning. A photograph of Musk sitting at the computer has solicited 26 bids — with the highest bidder willing to fork over $1,355.

Musk, the future entrepreneur who would go on to become the world’s wealthiest person, is seen in the photos as a 23-year-old who could be playful, affectionate, serious and tech-savvy.
One photo in the collection being put on the block by Boston-based RR Auction shows Musk wearing a “Judge Dredd” T-shirt — which pays homage to the comic book character that inspired the movie starring Sylvester Stallone.
In another photo, a smiling Musk is seen lying down on the floor with his hands behind his head while Gwynne snaps a picture of him as he looks into the camera with his feet apparently on her lap.

“He just saw school as a stepping stone.”
She told DailyMail.com that while their relationship was “sweet,” Musk would withhold “PDA” — public displays of affection.
“His shy nature attracted me at first,” Gwynne said, adding that “he used to be my type.”
She added: “‘We were physical when we needed to be… but there wasn’t any hand-holding or anything like that.”
“He liked to be together,” Gwynne said.
“He just liked having someone there with him, someone to support him.”
She is also auctioning off a 14-karat gold necklace that Musk bought her while they were visiting his mother in Toronto.

Gwynne told DailyMail.com that he initially intended for the necklace to be a Christmas gift, but they decided that it would instead be a birthday present.
The relationship ended when Musk moved to Palo Alto, Calif. after that semester. Gwynne said she visited him once out West, but they decided to end the relationship.

“If we weren’t physically together it was a problem because he’s not good on the phone,” Gwynne recalled.
“He said, ‘It’s a waste of time’.”
‘It was hard, it was not what a 20-year-old woman wanted to hear. I was totally in love with him,’ she said.
