John Lennon’s eldest son Julian is selling some of the rarest pieces of music history from his private collection. 

John Lennon’s coat from the “Magical Mystery Tour” film, his cape from “Help!,” three guitars and Paul McCartney’s handwritten arrangement notes for “Hey Jude” are some of the most sought after memorabilia from music history up for nonfungible token (NFT) auction.

The NFT series, called “Lennon Connection: The NFT Collection,” has opened up for bidding on Monday and will commence on February 7 in collaboration with NFT marketplace YellowHeart and Julien’s Auctions. A portion of the sale from the NFT auction will be donated to Lennon’s White Feather Foundation. 

Julian would keep the original physical items and the buyer would own the rights to the unique NFT. Each NFT in the collection would be offered as an audio-visual collectible, narrated by Julian Lennon himself.

The most notable item that is expected to attract the highest bid is said to be the hand-written note by Paul McCartney for Hey Jude. The NFT for the item has a starting price of $30,000.
