John Lennon’s Last Letter Sells for Over $63K at Auction

Turns out the response to the $64,000 concern is … just how much a Beatles fan or souvenirs collector will spend for the last letter John Lennon ever typed.

Lennon penned the missive to his accounting professional on December 8, 1980 — simply hours prior to the rock legend was assassinated in NYC — and it simply brought $63,750 at auction, far going beyond expectations.

The letter was anticipated to opt for someplace in between $30K and $50K — however there was a flurry of bidders at the end of the 17-day online auction, pressing the last rate up early Saturday early morning for auction home, Gotta Have Rock and Roll.

As for the buyer’s identity … they’re choosing to stay confidential in the meantime.

As we reported … Lennon signed the letter — which is the last recognized legal doc with his sign — prior to sending it to his accounting professional, Barry Nichols. It noted the names of 3 proxies Lennon picked to vote at a yearly conference for the Beatles corporation, which was to be held 9 days later on in London.
