A Beatles Memorabilia Auction is happening July 3rd in Las Vegas, featuring Stuart Sutcliffe Original Art, which was endorsed by John Lennon, at that time as Johnny & the Moondogs. This is the first time Stuart’s art, lyrics and paintings are available for sale anywhere, plus Beatles Memorabilia and Autographs will be displayed and on sale.
The assorted works of art will be offered for sale July 3rd at the ItsOnlyRockNRoll.com online and in-person auction at the Mirage Hotel in Las Vegas, and also on eBay. These include: Abstract Sculpture, Abstract Figures on Paper, Seagull Painting, Abstract Oil Paintings, Charcoal and Ink Artworks, Handwritten Song Lyrics and Set Lists, Handwritten Poems, Liverpool Art School Artworks, Pen and Ink Drawings, Self Portrait Sketch, Watercolor Painting, and others.
Actually, Stuart Sutcliffe was the Beatles first bass player, in the late fifties as the Silver Beatles. So this event will really spotlight the early years of the group, while they were gaining popularity in Hamburg, Germany. Stuart was really a gifted artist, who dedicated his life to his art and left the Beatles in 1961 to pursue full time studies at the art institute. Paul switched to bass, then Pete Best was replaced by Ringo a year later.
Besides the Stuart Sutcliffe Collection, the auction will include over 350 lots of Beatles Autographs, Concert Posters, Records, Toys and Memorabilia, priced anywhere between $100.00 to $100,000.
