Imagine Owning John Lennon's Brambach Baby Grand Piano.
John Lennon and Yoko Ono moved to New York in 1972, and into their home in the Dakota in 1973. They also purchased a secret home in Cold Spring Harbor on Long Island in the mid 1970s, a place for them to get away from the city and get back to nature, getting some much-needed privacy. Moving into this half-million dollar, four-acre estate on a hill overlooking the bay, they both found themselves in the perfect place to be musically creative.
For this secret hideaway, John Lennon and Yoko Ono purchased a beautiful 1917 mahogany Baby Grand piano. John and Yoko used this fine instrument to create some of their timeless masterpieces. It was from this period that the couple were working on the 1980 multi-platinum album "Double Fantasy", featuring such classics as "Starting Over", "Woman", "Watching the Wheels", Beautiful Boy", "I'm Losing You", "Walking On Thin Ice", and more. According to Yoko, John wrote one of his last love songs to her on this piano - "Dear Yoko." It was this song that John filmed a video of in their home during April, 1980.
This piano was last auctioned by Yoko Ono at Sotheby's on June 23, 1984 to raise money for the Spirit Foundation that John and Yoko founded in 1978. The Spirit Foundation is a not-for-profit organization that funnels funds to numerous charities, some of which focus on AIDS support services, abused and needy children and the aging. This historic instrument has not been offered publicly since 1984, and has been off the market for over 20 years.
Just sitting at this magnificent Brambach piano, you can picture John, hard at work composing; or just fooling around, playing his favorite songs, even the occasional Beatles tune during the happy years he and Yoko spent together in their lovely Long Island home. Now imagine this historic instrument in your own home, yours to enjoy. (Note: this piano presents beautifully, but the soundboard requires some restoration). This is a chance

Paul McCartney Signed and Used Bass Guitar.
In 1956, Walter Hofner conceived an amplified semi-acoustic bass that revolutionized popular music. Many players revere Hofner's 500/1 Violin Bass as a legend because of its historical significance and its warm, double-bass-like amplified tone, and a playing ease that simply eludes most ordinary basses. The design was was launched at the 1956 Frankfurt Music Fair and rose to fame after Paul McCartney bought his first Hofner bass in a shop in Hamburg in 1961, and used it on many of the Beatles' most famous songs. McCartney, who continues to use the Hofner to this day, and the design is often referred to as the "Beatle bass." Featured here is one such Hofner bass (right handed) used by McCartney during a September 11 benefit concert photo shoot. It's signed by the former Beatle in silver marker and dated 2001. In excellent condition with some mild cracking in the finish.

John Lennon Signed "Helter Skelter" Contract.
"Helter Skelter" was one of the fiercest and most brutal rock songs in the Beatles' catalog; Composer Paul McCartney has said that the track was written and recorded with the aim of making the noisiest, rawest hard rock song possible. While this wasn't an area the Beatles explored often, "Helter Skelter" can hold its own against the heaviest outings by the heaviest groups of the era. Featured here is a double-sided contract, dated October 15, 1968, establishing the royalties for the song between Maclen Music Ltd. and writers McCartney and John Lennon, signed by the latter on the reverse side in black ink. In great condition with some overall light tanning and a one-inch tear and small stain near the bottom edge.

One of the rarest Beatles singles, the special pressing of "Ask Me Why" (VJ Special #8) was limited to a miniscule handful of copies circulated amongst Los Angeles radio stations in 1964 for promotional purposes, possibly to test the reaction to "Anna" as a follow-up single to "Please Please Me." If that was the case, Vee-Jay must have determined that "Anna" wasn't a very strong single, as it went with "Twist and Shout" and "Do You Want To Know a Secret" for its next Beatles 45s. Both 12" discs are in VG+ condition with some tarnishing.

C. Spectorsky, he states that he is "far from being adverse to the notion of doing something for "Playboy," I'm rather excited by the prospect ... Finding the time to do such is yet another story. This damned "Twilight Zone" occupies the bulk of my working day ... " In more fiery language relating to the magazine's interview with American Nazi Party founder George Lincoln Rockwell, he writes: "I anticipate that you people shall probably be roundly roasted for the recent Rockwell interview ... My guess is that in this case exposure is tantamount to education and education, here, is a most salutory instruction into the mentalities, the motives and the modus operandi of an animal pack who are discounted by the aged maxim that 'it can't happen here.'"

Beatles Butcher Cover Promo Poster.
Here's a rare item for Beatles fans: A promotional poster featuring the notorious "butcher" cover for the "Yesterday ... and Today" album. It was the last Beatles album to be created exclusively for the American market by Capitol Records without the group's direct consent (the label had reconfigured every one of the group's LPs in America up to that point). What should have been a routine album, the proposed 11-song U.S.- only compilation of singles and leftover U.K. LP tracks, was graced with a cover depicting the quartet in butcher smocks, handling raw pieces of meat and dismembered baby dolls -- their comment on how albums like this one seemed to chop up their repertory. Initially, Capitol Records' art department went along with the gag and approved a print run of the album, but negative reactions from record chain buyers and disc jockeys forced Capitol to reconsider and a new, tamer photo replaced the original cover. In the end, between the junking of the artwork and the overtime needed to salvage the inventory, the album ended up as the only U.S. Beatles' album to show a loss on Capitol's books. This rare piece of Beatles memorabilia is a must-have display item.

Early Photo of John Lennon with the Quarrymen.
The odds are that under ordinary circumstances, the Quarrymen would have been forgotten decades ago, along with countless other skiffle bands that sprang up throughout England in the mid- to late-'50s. However, they turned out to be one of the greatest sources of talent in the history of popular music, having been founded by John Lennon, and Paul McCartney and George Harrison having passed through their line-up. Featured here is a black-and-white photo of a (very) young John Lennon with some of his Quarrymen bandmates. A candid shot of a future rock legend, and a great item for collector's of Beatles memorabilia.
