Records and music memorabilia from the legendary BBC DJ John Peel's personal collection are being auctioned off this June, The Guardian reports. Peel's family said in a statement:
John/Dad was in a position to have access to many of the most celebrated people and events in the history of popular music. This is reflected in a wealth of souvenirs he collected. In going through the accumulation of 40 years of pop music moments, we decided that some of the most interesting items might find a home, with fans of his programme or of the artists whose music he played.
