A world leading music memorabilia specialist will be visitng Henley-on-Thames to offer free valuations of rare music memorabilia items.
Tracks Ltd will be in Henley-on-Thames on Sunday, March 9 to value items from any major music artists from any decade
The market for Beatles and music related memorabilia which began in the eighties has since grown exponentially in size and significance. It is a market worth millions now and the scope is becoming increasingly wide in terms of the artists it includes.
In the world of music memorabilia, the artists and bands whose ephemera attract the highest prices are: The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, Led Zeppelin, The Who, Jimi Hendrix, Pink Floyd, Queen, David Bowie, The Smiths, Joy Division, Oasis, Sex Pistols, The Clash etc.
Much of this interest in pop memorabilia emanates from the fact that rock ‘n’ roll music, artists and bands have played a significant part in many people’s lives both during their teenage and adult years.
For many people, collecting memorabilia is a way of preserving memories of concerts and remembering their idols. In addition, many of the pop posters from the 60’s and 70’s are now seen to have considerable artistic merit.
Autographs and written material are of great interest to collectors. The signatures of The Beatles have always brought the most money. A good clean set of autographs can be £4000 upwards and a set from 1967 can be in excess of £5000. Album sleeves autographed by The Beatles can bring £15,000 to £20,000 and even more if signed on one of the later releases. An album signed on the front cover by Led Zeppelin or Jimi Hendrix can realise £8000 to £10,000.
Concert memorabilia is another strong area of interest. Vintage concert posters from the 1960s relating to the Beatles, The Rolling Stones, Jimi Hendrix or a poster from the 1970s relating to Led Zeppelin can bring £8000 to £10,000.
Tracks Ltd are on the lookout for items such as autographs and signed articles, vintage concert posters from the 1960s and 1970s and concert ephemera such as handbills, flyers, ticket/ticket stubs etc.
Selected items can be purchased on the day. Please look us up on Trustpilot.
