The passport that allowed James Joyce to travel Europe with Nora and the kids while he finished up Ulysses goes on the block at Sotheby's London on July 14 as part of the English Literature, History, Children's Books and Illustrations sale. This little 10-paneled piece of paper is expected to fetch up to GBP 70,000.
