Blake's Broke


Robert Blake is desperate for cash.

The former "Baretta" star, who filed for bankruptcy last week, was spotted at Norman's Rare Guitars in Tarzana, Calif., trying to sell off his collection of instruments to buy a used car.

Steve Walter, who owns Flatiron District lounge the Cutting Room, says: "I was in L.A. and went there to check out some guitars. There was Robert Blake trying to sell off his guitars from 'Baretta.' All I could think of was Joan Rivers' bit about going on a date with Blake in her stand-up show [at the Cutting Room]. I almost bought the guitars myself." Last year, Blake was acquitted of the 2001 murder of his wife, Bonnie Lee Bakley.
