Beatles icon John Lennon's sunglasses have sold at auction in London for £137,500.
John Lennon's golden glasses are expected to fetch thousands of pounds at auction.
Personal items once belonging to former Beatles musician John Lennon were about to go up for auction in an illegal black market event in Berlin, but a German police in raid on Tuesday captured the items in the nick of time. Three diaries, letters, a pair of Lennon's signature glasses, original recordings of a Beatles concert, and other items were allegedly stolen in New York by a man who worked as the chauffeur of Yoko Ono between 1995 and 2006. Other items were found in the car of a man that has been arrested by authorities on Monday. A different suspect involved in the case is believed to be living in Turkey.
