Kurt Cobain Relics are Going Up for Auction

On Wednesday, October 9th, it was reported by Julien’s Auctions that the sweater and a custom Fender guitar built in 1993 that Kurt Cobain used during the band’s In Utero Tour will be offered during a two-day auction of rock memorabilia this month. The auction will be held on October 25th and 26th.

Cobain, one of the biggest stars of the grunge rock music scene of the early 1990s, was 27 when he killed himself on April 5, 1994.

The olive green cardigan that Kurt Cobain wore during Nirvana’s MTV Unplugged performance and one of the late rocker’s custom guitars are headed to auction. The turquoise-bodied left-handed guitar was on display for several years at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.

Other pieces in the auction include handwritten lyrics by Bob Dylan, Eric Clapton and Bruce Springsteen.
