Two bracelets, an incense burner and an ashtray that were once owned by John Lennon. These items were initially part of the Memory Lane Museum auction held in March 1995. The museum was run by Kenneth and Margaret Brunt, whom The Beatles employed as transport contractors during the late 1960s. Family friends of The Brunts bought these items and kept them in their possession for several years.

The set comprises two copper bracelets, one Kenneth received directly from Lennon after a gig, a brass incense burner stamped "Irene India Series", and a copper ashtray. There are signs of verdigris patina and tarnishing. The lot is accompanied by a letter from the previous owner, an original Memory Lane Museum auction catalogue, five photographs showing The Brunts and the family friends and an Apple Corps Ltd cheque. Dimensions (largest): 6 cm x 6 cm x 8.5 cm (2.25" x 2.25" x 3.25")

Estimate: £1,000 - 2,000 M
