Arctic Monkeys have donated a signed vinyl copy of their seventh album ‘The Car’ in 2022, with the highest bid at time of publication being £160.
Noel Gallagher has given a rare, hand-signed pair of Adidas Stan Smith trainers to the auction, featuring a picture of the Oasis guitarist on the tongue of the shoe and his initials on the heel tab. The size 7 shoes have a minimum bid of £500. There is also a white mounted print of Gallagher’s Live At The Royal Albert Hall poster, numbered 1 of 5. That has a minimum bid of £1000.
There is also a mounted, signed Taylor Swift presentation, with photographs of the pop superstar and a plaque. It has a current bid of £500.
Other items include a signed Brian May guitar that already has a £1000 bid in place, a signed wool jacket that was worn by Lewis Capaldi to the 2023 Brit Awards with a £1500 minimum bid, a signed Ed Sheeran and Pete McKee print, The Who’s Glastonbury 2015 headline setlist signed by Roger Daltrey and a Lord Of The Rings poster signed by Ian McKellen.

Other items in the auction come from Courteeners, Bryan Adams, Nicholas Hoult, Iron Maiden, Newton Faulkner, Tom Hanks and Little Mix.
At the start of the year, Daltrey confirmed that he would be stepping down as the curator for the Teenager Cancer Trust concert series after more than two decades. Since its initiation in 2000, the series has raised over £32million to support those struggling with cancer.
