Ever since Prince passed away in 2016, many fans have been searching for any bit of memorabilia to remember the iconic musician with. Now, some of the most sought after items are going up for auction, but it’ll cost quite a bit to take them home. Prince’s ‘Purple Rain’ shirt and custom cloud guitar, along with a number of other items, are set to be sold this month.

Of all the items being auctioned, the shirt and guitar are expected to bring in the most money. The white, ruffled shirt was actually worn by Prince during the climax of ‘Purple Rain,’ while the custom bright yellow Cloud Guitar features 18 black Prince symbols on the neck and fretboard. Both items are expected to bring in at least 60k.

According to TMZ, some other items being sold from Prince’s collection include; the first pressing of ‘The Black Album,’ his stage-worn gold outfit from his ‘Jam of the Year Tour’ and a jacket from his ‘Essence’ magazine photoshoot. Bidding is currently taking place at RR Auction and will run through March 10. For Prince fans, this may be the best chance of getting some top notch memorabilia.
