Expensive Rock ‘n Roll Items That Sold for Millions

Bowie’s handwritten lyrics for “Starman” went up for auction in 2022 and quickly blew past expectations. They were originally estimated to fetch around $70,000, but the final price reached nearly $335,000.

The winning bidder planned to display them in an Australian museum, joking that they might have paid too much. But for Bowie fans, getting a rare look at his writing process is priceless.
