If you've got a deep passion for classic rock—and the cash to prove it—there some serious once-in-a-lifetime collectables up for grabs. From massively famous suits to the very place where David Bowie dreamed up some of his most beloved hits, it's a beautiful time to be an insanely rich rock fan.
Here are all the things up for auction right now that you can buy—or, at least, dream of buying, since you'll need a minimum of $ to catch 'em all.
1. John Legend's famous 1960s Douglas Millings suit, starting at $50,000
Starting tomorrow, you can buy this ultra famous four-button, narrow-lapel skinny suit worn by Lennon himself with his name written inside.
The grey wool suit was made by Millings, a British tailor that created hundreds of looks for The Beatles. Obviously, you should be prepared to hand in some serious cash for this one—bidding starts at $50,000 and will certainly not stop there.
2. Bob Dylan's handwritten lyrics to "Wisconsin", starting at $30,000
Even the most dedicated Bob Dylan fans may not have heard about this one: an unpublished 1961 song about Wisconsin. And the handwritten lyrics are going up for auction tomorrow (apparently, tomorrow is a beautiful day).
According to Nate D. Saunders Auctions, the lyrics were written back in 1961, just a short time after he moved to the Big Apple and signed with Columbia records. "I'm always dubious when a 'newly discovered Dylan manuscript' shows up at auction," Jeff Gold, a music historian who appraised the Bob Dylan Archive, told Rolling Stone. "There have been any number of forgeries sold as authentic over the years. This one, however, is the real deal. It's a long way from the kind of writing that won him the Nobel Prize, but it's still noteworthy as an example of Dylan's early songwriting."
3. David Bowie's former New York apartment, $6.5 million
Looking for a place that's charged with creative energy? You probably can't do better than David Bowie's former three-bedroom apartment in Central Park South, where the musician lived for a decade. Bowie lived in the apartment with his wife from 1992 to 2002, and his Yamaha piano is still in the living room.
The property is currently listed for just under $6.5 million, but seriously, talk about a rockstar apartment.
