An early draft of one of Bob Dylans most popular songs,“Mr. Tambourine Man,” went for over a half-million dollars as part of a weekend sale of dozens of the singers items.
Records, Photos and press letters were a lot of the sale that brought in a total of $1,500,000 in sales at Juliens Auction House.
Tamborine Man sold for $508k.
Other high-selling items Saturday included a 1968 Dylan-signed oil-on-canvas painting for $260,000 and a custom 1983 Fender guitar that he owned and played for $225,000.
Dylan, now 83, is garnering attention with last month’s release of the movie “A Complete Unknown,” which focuses on his rise to stardom in the early 1960s. Dylan is played by Timothée Chalamet, who has worked for several years on the role, which involves singing and playing guitar.
