Mahatma Gandhi dedicated his life to the freedom fight of India. Naturally, anything that belonged to him or had his writing on it would fetch a good price if sold today. A signed vintage photo of Mahatma Gandhi, walking alongside Madan Mohan Malaviya, was auctioned for USD 41,806 (equivalent to Rs 27 Lakh) in the United States.
Signed in fountain pen, “M K Gandhi,” the rare photo was taken after the second session of India’s Round Table Conference in London in September 1931, according to Boston-based RR Auction, reported PTI.

As the delegate acting on behalf of the Indian National Congress, Gandhi attended the second session of the British-organised round table conference, a three-part conference series held in London from 1930 to 1932, with the aim of discussing the ongoing constitutional reforms in India, a media release said.
