Christine McVie auctioned off some of her personal items over the weekend - and in the wake of her death...you better believe they fetched a pretty penny.
The event was hosted by Julien's Auctions on Saturday and Sunday in Beverly Hills, where more than 800 items belonging to three different Fleetwood Mac members, including CMV, were offered for sale to the highest bidder...and Christine's things were in high demand.
Among the prizes to be won are the wardrobe she wore herself, not to mention Christine's musical instruments and stage gear...so, yes, rare collectibles.< /p>
For starters, Christine's two different dresses were sold...one was the vintage maxi dress she donned for the hit album "Rumors" (sold for $56,250) and her hippie dress in polka dot chiffon - which she wore to the 1976 Rock Music Awards (sold for $31,250).
There's more... the singer's Leslie speaker and her own mics fetched $37,500; his Hammond B3 touring organ fetched $28,125; his small Yamaha electric grand piano sold for $22,400; and Christine's other stage organ went for $18,750. Nearly $200,000 in total.
Other FM items were also part of the auction: some of John McVie's possessions were also sold, such as his guitars and bass which alone fetched nearly a quarter of a million dollars. Plus, Mick Fleetwood's iconic "Rumors" wooden balls alone pocketed $128,000.
