John Lennon's round glasses and Ringo Starr's parking ticket to go under hammer next month
A visitor stands besides a photo of John Lennon by Linda McCartney during the press preview at the exhibition 'Sixties' by Linda McCartney in the Avant-garde House of Art in Apolda, Germany, April 8, 2016.
Alan Herring, who worked as a chauffeur for Starr and bandmate George Harrison in the late 60s, said Lennon had given him the glasses after leaving them on the back seat of his Mercedes. "I asked John if he'd like me to get them fixed for him. He told me not to worry, that they were just for the look."
Herring said the decision to sell the objects was an emotional one, but that "the memories I have of this very special time in my life working with the Beatles are far more important to me".
