Biggest JIMI HENDRIX Memorabilia Auction To Be Held Today
February 16, 2005Ireland Online is reporting that guitars, psychedelic shirts and a high school year book belonging to rock legend Jimi Hendrix will go under the hammer today.
Unseen photographs of the musician and extensive writings by the man himself will also be up for sale.
The huge number of items make up the world's biggest Hendrix memorabilia collection ever to appear at auction.
They were all collected by one man — a devoted fan called Bob Terry — who saw Hendrix perform live in 1967 and became obsessed, collecting items over the next 35 years.
Terry ingratiated himself into Hendrix's circle in order to obtain as much memorabilia as possible.
Three guitars are up for sale as well as a microphone and microphone box from the musician's last tour — complete with doodles and amp settings inside the lid.
An Elk skin fringe jacket, hotel room keys and even one of Hendrix's phone bills will be up for grabs.
Fans of the rock star — who died almost 35 years ago — can also bid for promotional material including posters, tour programmes and concert tickets.
Auctioneers Cooper Owen will be hosting the sale at the Hard Rock Cafe in London from 10:30am today.
