The time has come...
Posted: Wed May 02, 2012 5:04 pm
To sell off my Rhoads collection. I'll be 45 come November, And holding onto this stuff no longer seems important, so maybe someone who is looking to bulk up what they have could do well here.
On the downside, this will all go as one lot, as I have no intention whatsoever in auctioning it off by piece.
I have no autographs, no bootlegs, the photos are ones that were commonly seen on tk.
The rare stuff would be the November '82 issue of Guitar Player, (the first, and in my opinion, the best tribute any mag did on the guy), the JApanese Tribute book. I was stationed there from 87-90, and the badges and patches...all the badges were on my denim thru high school. I subscribe to Classic Rock, so that issue does not have the outer cardboard sleeve.
This lot will contain ALL of the following:
2 patches 1 is rectangle red/white font, the other in the shape of pinstripe axe
14 pins/badges
62 3x5 concert shots bought from rock shops in the 80’s
6 8x10 photos
10 guitar plectrumss w/ randy pictures on them
Ozzy Osbourne by Garry Sharpe- Young
Diary of a Madman by Mick Wall
Ozzy Osbourne Garry Johnson
Ozzy HM Photo Book
The Japanese Tribute book put out by BURNN! (Text in Kanji)
Bible of Ozz, small promo book, within was ozzy belt buckle, Zakk patch and CD NRFTW. (Text in Kanji)
Looked like hardcover, half was foam for patch, buckle and CD, other half text. Only text part remains.
Diary US tour book (Cover is live shot of Ozzy in chainmail with arm raised)
Kerrang! #13 4/02 with poster/obit
Guitar Player 11/82 Randy Rhoads Remembered
Guitar for the Practicing Musician 6/85
GFTPM 4/86
Hit Parader 6/87 3 copies
Guitar World 6/87 3 copies 1 cover scuffed
GFTPM 8/87
GFTPM 8/90
GW 8/04
GW Guitar Legends ’05 3 copies
GW 3/06 2 copies 1 sealed, both have bonus disc
GW Guitar Legends 2010? 3 copies
GW 7/11
Premier Guitar 7/11
Classic Rock 3/12 (UK)
Roughly 100 pg scrapbook I collected between 82-85, contains pages from Ozzy HM photo book, as well as pics/articles from above 80’s mags, and more.
Last but not least, the boxed set from last year complete (2x LP, 3x CD, 1x DVD, 1 book, cross & box.)
I have yet to sell anything on ebay, so I need to get that set up, I also need to find out what shipping would cost, as this is gonna be on the heavy side...the magazines alone came to 17 lbs.
I just wanted to give folks here the heads-up first.
The box alone was $120 USD, so this will probably fall somewhere around $220-250 USD
I'll post here when this auction is about to happen.
