The souvenirs are flying off the shelves at the Washington, D.C. hotel where Eliot Spitzer allegedly had a tryst with a high-priced call girl.

The tiny gift shop at the Mayflower Hotel has been doing a brisk business in merchandise since the scandal erupted last month, leading to Spitzer's resignation as governor.

The hotel's management says items with the Mayflower logo and the longtime catchphrase, "Washington's Second Best Address" are hot items.

At least one souvenir hunter has gone to extremes. The hotel says the sign for Room 871 -- the one where Spitzer's alleged encounter occurred -- disappeared a few weeks ago.
