Michael Jackson, Hendrix, Oasis items on sale at Propstore music auction

RICKMANSWORTH, England, Oct 15 (Reuters) – From Michael Jackson’s jackets to Noel Gallagher’s guitars, music memorabilia will head to auction next month in a sale estimated to raise around 2 million pounds ($2.61 million).
Entertainment memorabilia auctioneer Propstore is offering more than 350 music items used by or that once belonged to megastars at its Nov. 15 sale, as part of a four-day event that will also sell film and television props and costumes.
Highlights from the music lots include a Jimi Hendrix master tape featuring four unreleased demo recordings in a box on which the musician wrote their titles.
Framed “Beat It” lyrics, handwritten by Jackson, will also go under the hammer, as will some of his jackets. A black and gold military style one has a price estimate of 200,000 – 400,000 pounds ($261,000 – $522,000), while his red “Thriller” tour rehearsal jacket comes complete with multiple famous signatures.
