Antique Souvenir
Can you tax some one on an item that was caught at a baseball game, solely because it broke a world record?
Here’s the story…
The 21-year-old New York man said Tuesday he had no choice but to sell the ball — several people told him he would be taxed on the souvenir just for holding on to it.
“It wasn’t hard. It was simple math. I’m upset by the decision I had to make,” Murphy said. “I wanted to keep it. I’m young. I don’t have the bank account. … It would have cost me a lot more to keep it.”
I never knew that you could be taxed on an item that became a part of hisotry, due to who made contact with that object. Do they tax antiques stores as well? Or museums for what and who they hold? Is this a law? Is this common practice?
No you can not be taxed on an object the ball has no stated value till its sold. He can be taxed on the money he receives from selling it but not by just possessing it.
