*Memorabilia belonging to civil rights icon Rosa Parks are going on sale courtesy of auction house Guernsey's, with proceeds to benefit the Rosa and Raymond Parks Institute for Self Development and the Parks family.
"The archive includes thousands of items -- ranging from Mrs. Parks' schoolbooks to her Congressional Gold Medal," according to Guernsey's.
A Michigan court chose Guernsey's for the sale, which could net up to $10 million, according to estimates from the Washington Post.
Parks, who refused to give up her bus seat to a white customer in Alabama in December 1955 and became the poster child of the US civil rights movement, died October 24, 2005, aged 92.
