Signed Picasso print found by Ohio man at thrift store

Zachary Bodish recently sold the print he bought for $14. It went for $7,000

Thrift stores may normally be known for carrying rags, but one man has found a lot of riches from an item he purchased there.

Zachary Bodish of Ohio paid $14.14 for a poster that ended up being an original signed Pablo Picasso print and recently sold it for $7,000, according to the Associated Press. The person who acquired the art is a private buyer who wishes to remain anonymous.

"A pretty good return," said the 46-year-old Bodish to the Associated Press. "Can't get that at a bank."

Bodish said to The Columbus Dispatch the only thing he is allowed to say about the buyer is, "He raises thoroughbreds and he's sort of a big deal."
