Lennon's specs could fetch millions
12.10, Fri Jul 13 2007
A pair of John Lennon's iconic glasses are expected to fetch £1 million at an online auction. The coveted items are on sale at a music memorabilia website. The last pair of Lennon's spectacles sold in 2002 are insured for £1 million. The gold rimmed glasses were given to Japanese translator Junishi Yore by Lennon during the band's 1966 tour of Japan. The glasses have no lenses as Yore took them out as a sign of respect when he heard of Lennon's murder in 1980 - as tradition dictates in Japan. The glasses come with a note from Yore, which reads, "He (Lennon) gave me this ... very nice man. Lenses removed when he die." The auction closes at the end of the month. |
