The sale offers items spanning the band's
entire performing career, including a signed copy of the Fab
Four's first single from 1962, "Love Me Do", valued at between
15,000 and 20,000 pounds ($19,000-$25,400).
Other items on sale include a pair of John Lennon's unmistakable
glasses, valued at 30,000 to 40,000 pounds, and his school
detention sheet, estimated to be worth as much as 5,000 pounds,
which details a record of his misbehaviour as a boy.
A 1966 Cartier watch, estimated at up to 25,000 pounds, is also
up for grabs. It belonged to band manager Brian Epstein, whose
death in 1967 is considered a key factor in the eventual
separation of the four lads from Liverpool.
