Handwritten lyrics to Oasis' iconic song "Wonderwall," along with notable items such as Noel Gallagher's guitar and a custom golf buggy, are set to be auctioned off, providing fans with an exclusive look into the band's legacy. The auction, organized by Propstore, includes over 60 pieces of memorabilia, touted to be the largest collection of Oasis guitars ever made available at auction.
One of the highlighted items is a custom Silver Sparkle Gibson Les Paul Florentine, which Gallagher once described as the best guitar in the world, with an estimated sale price between £200,000 and £400,000. The handwritten "Wonderwall" lyrics are expected to fetch between £4,000 and £8,000, while another set featuring lyrics to "Live Forever" and "Supersonic" along with the brothers' signatures could go for around £3,000 to £6,000.
Additional notable items include a tambourine used by Liam Gallagher on stage and the golf buggy gifted to Noel by his ex-wife Meg Matthews. The golf buggy, painted in psychedelic designs reminiscent of John Lennon’s Rolls Royce, is anticipated to sell for between £5,000 and £10,000.
The public will have the chance to view the items at the "Together We'll Fly" exhibition at the Cumberland Hotel from October 18 to October 20, with proceeds benefiting the Teenage Cancer Trust. Mark Hochman, Propstore's music and poster specialist, stated that this auction offers a unique opportunity for fans to connect with the legacy of Oasis.
This auction coincides with the recent announcement of Oasis' much-anticipated return, marking their first performances as a band since their infamous split in 2009, with stadium shows scheduled in the UK and Ireland for 2025. Liam Gallagher has returned to social media, commenting on the ticket controversy surrounding the reunion.
