(SOUNDBITE) (English) JONATHAN RENDELL, DEPUTY CHAIRMAN, CHRISTIE'S AMERICAS, SAYING: "These are the things that the Reagans lived with in Bel Air, owned, enjoyed. A lot of the things on sale went with them from California to the White House and then came home again." Expected to sell for up to $20,000 is a chunk of the Berlin Wall. Christie's Rendell puts the sale in the context of modern history. (SOUNDBITE) (English) JONATHAN RENDELL, DEPUTY CHAIRMAN, CHRISTIE'S AMERICAS, SAYING: "I just think that it's important to look at this as a part of recent, American history.
