Pepper album cover, rare 1964 Beatles Bobb’n Head prototypes, and Sid Vicious’ (bassist for the Sex Pistols) last signatures before he died, taken while out on bail in NYC for allegedly murdering his girlfriend, Nancy Spungen, are amongst the rock and roll memorabilia that are up for auction until today 6pm ET.
