The New York-based auctioneer said the seller of the Hendrix guitar strap is the audience member who caught it.

The auction also includes a guitar smashed by Nirvana’s Kurt Cobain in 1993. There’s a glove worn by Jackson at a 1997 concert in London. And there’s a dress worn by Katy Perry in her video for “I Kissed a Girl.”

The Jackson glove is being sold by Steve Manning, who was a friend and publicist to the late King of Pop.
