Pattie Boyd, Muse To Harrison & Clapton, Artifacts Up For Auction

She was the love of two of the greatest musicians of the rock and roll era - George Harrison and Eric Clapton. Now, at age 79, Pattie Boyd is literally cleaning house, offering up a plethora of memories for auction at Christie's in London. 

The artifacts include rare personal photographs, clothing, books and personal correspondence from the two rock stars to the woman who inspired The Beatles "Something" and Clapton's signature tune "Layla."

Two of the many items are pictured below, including a honeymoon photo of Harrison and Boyd together and a somewhat disturbing letter sent by Clapton asking if Pattie still loved him or was involved with someone else. The pair ended up getting a divorce. 

The pic is selling somewhere in the neighbourhood of about $3,000 U.S., while the letter in question will set you back nearly 20 grand. 

You can see all of the items on sale here.
