A Huge Auction of Rock Star Things

The negatives from Madonna’s Penthouse shoot. Sinatra’s herringbone button-down. A Bigsby guitar signed by the Cult. These are all things you’re about to own.

Once upon a time, the forward pass didn’t exist in football. Which is hilarious. Because picture it. Then Knute Rockne came along and made it all acceptable. Anyway, now you can get a replica of the same antique, hand-sewn watermelon football he threw back in the day. Horrifyingly ineffective helmet optional.
