Via BBC: *A pair of glasses worn by former Beatle John Lennon have sparked a bidding war after being offered for sale online. The trademark circular sunglasses were worn by Lennon during the Beatles’ 1966 tour of Japan, where the band played some of their last ever live dates.
Anonymous rival bidders have already pushed the price as high as £750,000 at online auction house 991.com. “The interest has been phenomenal,” said sales director John Warner. “Our phones have been in meltdown. It’s almost impossible to put a value on them,” he added. “They’re the rarest of the rare.”
