I have friends back in Dallas who work at Heritage Auctions. They do a LOT of music memorabilia, but they usually shy away from ugly or controversial stuff. Guitar enthusiasts (of which I am one) get lost and drool at the mouth when perusing their guitar auctions.

I would have been VERY disappointed if they had accepted these items to sell.
