Spink Sells Inverted Jennys

The 31-year-old son of billionaire "Bond King" Bill Gross has sold five rare postage stamps against his father's wishes - and bagged nearly $1.9 million in theprocess.

The final gavel price for the prized "Inverted Jenny" stamps, however, fell sorely short of the $3.4 million hoped for by Nick Gross, an LA-based rock drummer - and he mighthave his pop to blame for the missing $1.5 million, sources said.

"The low price could be a function of the dispute over ownership, over questions about title," according to a source close to the situation.

A block of four of the prized "Inverted Jenny" stamps - named for a 1918 printing error that pictured a so-called Jenny biplane upside-down - ended up selling for $1.45million.

The fifth stamp sold for $425,000, within the auction house's range of $250,000 to $675,000.
