Noel Gallagher’s psychedelic golf buggy and Liam Gallagher’s tambourine are among a host of Oasis memorabilia going on auction.
More than 60 items will be on offer at the Propstore online auction, including 18 of Noel’s guitars and handwritten lyrics to some of the band’s greatest hits.
One of the guitars, a custom Silver Sparkle Gibson Les Paul Florentine, which Noel described as “the best in the world”, is expected to fetch between £200,000 to £400,000.
A number of Noel’s handwritten lyrics to Wonderwall are estimated to go for between £4,000 and £8,000 and a set featuring Supersonic and Live Forever lyrics, the latter of which is autographed by both Gallagher brothers, are estimated to sell for between £3,000 and £6,000.
A tambourine that Liam used on stage is also up for grabs. It is unknown when or where the frontman used the instrument, but a similar one auctioned off in 2022 went for between £2,000 and £3,000.
The Oasis Live 25 tour sold out within hours after tickets went on sale on 31 August, prompting the band to announce two extra Wembley Stadium shows, meaning they will play seven dates at the stadium in west London as well as five in Manchester, three in Edinburgh, two in Cardiff and two in Dublin.
The most peculiar item in the auction is a golf buggy with psychedelic paint work in the same style as John Lennon’s Rolls Royce Phantom V limousine.
The vehicle was given to Noel by his then-wife Meg Matthews as a gift in the late 1990s, which he used to travel around the pair’s Buckinghamshire estate. It is expected to sell for between £5,000 and £10,000.

Other items on offer include platinum records presented to Oasis producer Owen Morris, stage equipment, and prints of images of the band in action by photographer Jill Furmanovsky.
All the items included in the auction will be available to view at the Together We’ll Fly exhibition at the Cumberland Hotel near London’s Marble Arch, from Friday 18 October to Sunday 20 October, with proceeds from the event supporting the Teenage Cancer Trust.
A preview exhibition will then be held at Propstore’s Hertfordshire office before the Entertainment Memorabilia Live Auction begins in November.
“This auction provides a unique opportunity for people to connect with the legacy of Oasis and we can’t wait to see these iconic items become part of new collections that will celebrate them for years to come,” Mark Hochman, Propstore’s music and poster specialist said.
Hit British series Baby Reindeer was among the big winners at this year’s Emmy Awards – as Shogun made history and there were also big wins for The Bear and Hacks.
Richard Gadd, who created and starred in the popular but controversial drama Baby Reindeer, collected awards for writing and starring in the limited series category, while co-star Jessica Gunning was named best supporting actress.
Japanese historical drama Shogun became the first non-English language show to be named best drama, and also set a record for the most single-season Emmywins – taking home four prizes on the night to make it 18 in total, following previous gongs at the creative arts event handed out earlier this month.
The Bear picked up four awards in the comedy categories, including wins for stars Jeremy Allen White, Ebon Moss-Bachrach and Liza Colon-Zayas, while Hacks took the overall win for best comedy series.
Meanwhile, Elizabeth Debicki also won her first Emmy for her portrayal of Diana, Princess of Wales, in fictionalised royal drama The Crown.
On stage, Gadd, 35, said it was “stuff of dreams” as he accepted awards for outstanding limited or anthology series, best writing, and lead actor for Baby Reindeer, which is said to be inspired by his real-life experiences.
The show sees his character Donny Dunn stalked by a woman called Martha. After becoming a viral hit earlier this year, the programme made international headlines after a woman claiming to be the inspiration behind Martha filed a lawsuit against Netflix, alleging the story is inaccurate.
In his acceptance speech for the writing award, Gadd said: “Ten years ago, I was down and out. I never ever thought I’d get my life together… then here I am, just over a decade later, picking up one of the biggest writing awards in television.

“I don’t mean that to sound arrogant. I mean it as encouragement for anyone who’s going through a difficult time right now to persevere… if you’re struggling, keep going – keep going and I promise you things will be okay.”
Accepting her supporting actress prize, Gunning said she was “incredibly proud” to be part of the show. “Thank you for trusting me to be your Martha,” she said to Gadd. “I will never, ever forget her or you or this.”
This year’s Emmys ceremony, held at the Peacock Theatre in Los Angeles, was also a huge success for Shogun. The show launched in February and is based on James Clavell’s best-selling novel, set during the 1600s.
Stars Hiroyuki Sanada and Anna Sawai became the first Japanese actors to win Emmys in the dramatic acting categories.
Sanada, who received a standing ovation, told the audience he was “beyond honoured”, and added: “Shogun taught me that when people work together, we can make miracles. We can create a better future together.”
A tearful Sawai, a first-time nominee, said: “I was crying before my name was announced. I’m a mess today. This to all the women who expect nothing and continue to be an example for everyone.”
Baby Reindeer and Shogun were not the only shows to receive multiple prizes, with hit series The Bear also a big winner.
In their opening monologue, father-son hosting duo Eugene and Dan Levy joked that the show, which depicts the stresses of life working in a professional kitchen and stars Jeremy Allen White as a chef running the family business after the death of his brother – would be better off categorised as a drama.
Allen White described himself as “so, so, so lucky” after picking up the Emmy for lead actor in a comedy series for his role as Carmen “Carmy” Berzatto.
“This show has changed my life, it has instilled a faith that change is possible, that change is possible if you are able to reach out, you are really truly not actually alone,” he said in his acceptance speech.
