Music Memorabilia, the upcoming auction to be presented by Bonhams, will include 193 lots of ephemera and collectibles. Some of the highlights of the auction include original handwritten lyrics for Elton John’s “Goodbye, Yellow Brick Road” and “Candle in the Wind.” Another key piece is the handwritten lyrics for John’s “Your Song,” autographed by the artist and Bernie Taupin. Included in this lot is a vinyl record of the song and several related books.
A 1967 Gibson EB-3 electric bass guitar, owned and played by Bill Wyman, is another highlight of the auction. While the neck and body of the guitar are made of mahogany with a cherry finish, the fretboard is made of Brazilian rosewood. A stage-worn vest belonging to George Harrison is accompanied by a notarized letter of provenance from the current owner. The letter details how he acquired the vest while attending Harrison’s show at the Los Angeles Forum in 1974. To view the complete catalog and register to bid online, visit Invaluable
