Icons and Idols: Rock ‘N’ Roll

The Icons & Idols: Rock ‘N’Roll auction offered by Julien’s Auctions is a two-day event featuring over 700 pieces of rare rock ‘n’ roll memorabilia. The names associated with the items in this sale are some of the world’s most well-known and influential artists, including Tupac Shakur, Prince, Grateful Dead, David Bowie, Elvis Presley, The Beatles, Michael Jackson, Madonna, Queen, Bob Dylan, Jimi Hendrix, Eric Clapton, Bruce Springsteen, Elton John and more.

Anchoring this sale is an archive of Janis Joplin and Big Brother & the Holding Company items that have never been up on the auction block. Two key items tied to Kurt Cobain are his custom-built left-handed Fender Mustang guitar used during Nirvana’s In Utero tour, as well as his vintage olive-green cardigan worn at the band’s most well-known performances on MTV’s Unplugged. One additional highly unusual item is the lot for the 62nd GRAMMY Awards Telecast & MusiCares Person of the Year “experience,” which includes two platinum-level seats to the live telecast and two platinum tickets to the Person of the Year gala in February 2020.
