A handwritten working manuscript of Bruce Springsteen’s 1975 hit “Born to Run” will be offered at auction on Dec. 5 in New York.
Sotheby’s said Wednesday the presale estimate is $ 70,000 to $ 100,000.

Sotheby’s says most of the lines in this 1974 version are apparently unpublished and unrecorded. However, the manuscript does include “a nearly perfected chorus.”
It’s written in blue ink, on an 8 1/2-by-11-inch sheet of ruled notepaper.
The document will be part of a Manhattan sale of fine books and manuscripts. It was written in Long Branch, N.J.
