Christmas is approaching, so if you're a Nirvana fan of expensive and morbid tastes, then why not buy yourself a lock of Kurt Cobain's hair?
There's some pretty bizarre rock n' roll memorabilia out there, but now Julien's Live are set to auction off a clump of the late Nirvana frontman's locks - with a starting bid of just $4,000.
"A lock of Kurt Cobain's hair given to doll maker and comic artist Dame Darcy by Courtney Love," reads the description. "In a comic book style letter of authenticity, Darcy explains that in the 1990s she sold her handmade dolls in the back of her comic book Meat Cake. Love became a client and commissioned a doll for her daughter Frances using Cobain’s hair. This lock was the hair that remained once the doll was made. Accompanied by both a black and white and inked copy of the letter of authenticity."
If you want something a little less creepy but more pricey, you can also pick up the green cardigan worn by Cobain in their iconic MTV Unplugged performance.
With a starting price of $20,000, the description reads: "A vintage green cardigan sweater worn by Kurt Cobain during Nirvana’s appearance on MTV Unplugged in 1993. The Manhattan brand sweater is a blend of acrylic, mohair and Lycra with five-button closure (one button absent), with two exterior pockets, a burn hole and discoloration near left pocket and discoloration on right pocket, size medium.
"The sweater was obtained from a close friend of the Cobain family. A signed letter of authenticity and provenance from the Cobain family friend will be provided to the winning bidder."
