Christine McVie’s Belongings to Be Auctioned for Charity in October
A collection of items once owned by the late Fleetwood Mac star Christine McVie is set to be auctioned in October, with proceeds going to charity.
This unique collection spans McVie’s remarkable career, featuring various items, some of which are one-of-a-kind treasures from her time with the iconic band.
Among the standout items are a Hammond XK-5 organ McVie used during Fleetwood Mac tours, handwritten chord sheets for the song “Tusk,” and a Grammy nomination plaque for the legendary “Rumours” album.
In addition to these musical artifacts, personal belongings such as artwork, furniture, stage outfits, and jewelry will also be available. In total, more than 650 items will be auctioned, with prices ranging from as low as $50 to significantly higher amounts. Notable pieces include McVie’s Rock & Roll Hall of Fame Award from 1998, estimated between $10,000 and $15,000, and a framed painting by British artist Edward Reginald Frampton, valued between $120,000 and $150,000.

For fans who might not be able to afford these items, there’s an opportunity to view highlights of the collection. Starting from Friday, Aug. 30, through Tuesday, Oct. 15, these items will be on display at the Musicians Hall of Fame & Museum in Nashville.
The auction is scheduled for Oct. 16 and 17 at the Musicians Hall of Fame, with online bidding available through Julien’s Auctions. Proceeds from the event will benefit MusiCares and other charitable organizations.
