OZZY OSBOURNE Stage Cape To Be Auctioned Off

August 6, 2004

A yellow and purple satin stage cape worn by Ozzy Osbourne at the California Jam Festival in 1974 is expected to fetch around 4,000 pounds (approximately $7,400) at a London auction next month, according to Bloomberg. The Christie's International Sept. 29 sale of pop memorabilia will include additional items relating to THE WHO, THE BEATLES, and MADONNA.

An electric guitar played by Pete Townshend of THE WHO during the rock group's 1973 U.K. Fallout Shelter Tour may fetch as much as 35,000 pounds ($63,796),Christie's International said.

The 1963 white Gibson SG Special is being offered by a private collector who bought it in the 1970s from an acquaintance of Townshend, Christie's said in a statement.
