Part of what makes the Rolling Stones selection in our
upcoming auction so enticing is the fact that we’ve been able to partner with
multiple consignors who had direct relationships with the Stones, which in turn
has enabled us to offer an impressive variety of promotional items that quite
simply are not your average run-of-the-mill commercial products. In addition to
promotional goods, we have a wide variety of desirable collectibles - from
record awards and signed items to rare bootleg CDs, photos, slides and
negatives, vintage vinyl - and much more. Below is a small sample of the
amazing Rolling Stones lots we’ve put together for all you Stones collectors!

collectible is in excellent overall condition and is sure to ‘Wow!’ even the
