Paul McCartney reunited with guitar stolen 51 years ago
The guitar, originally purchased for £30 in Germany in 1961, has not been valued, but the Lost Bass team think it would be worth more than the most expensive guitar ever sold - a Kurt Cobain guitar which sold for a record $6m (£4.9m) at auction in 2020. John Lennon's stolen guitar sold for $2.4m (£1.9m) when it resurfaced half a century later.

How Yoko Ono and a publishing temp saved the Beatles' Holy Grail from the scrap heap | Salon.com
Almost immediately, she could tell that they held contents of a particular significance. As she sifted through the boxes, she gazed at what seemed like vintage photographs of the Beatles — thousands of them. And then she found a manuscript titled "Living the Beatles’ Legend: Or 200 Miles to Go." It was an oddly formatted specimen — printed in all caps. And further still, she discovered a spate of leather-bound diaries. Leafing through their pages, Kutti was able to ascertain that the boxes must be the property of Malcolm Evans, a name that meant nothing to her. From the looks of the booty that lay before her in the basement, he must have been some kind of chronic hoarder, an avid photographer apparently, and an enthusiastic journaler who peppered his voluminous diary entries with madcap, colorful — even psychedelic — illustrations.

Fix A Cup To Mend The World? Yoko Ono Has An Artistic Solution To Warfare And Climate Change
But the purposeful purposelessness of Mend Piece may have a practical purpose in its own right.
