Excuse the post to general discussion. No real place to put this, otherwise. I am not an auction house or an online dealer of any sort. I am an avid Queen fan a nice collection and with something for sale. Figured this could go to another Queen fan...
I have a hard-shell silver photographer's case which belonged to Denis O'Regan, official live photographer to Queen (among many, many other music legends). Denis photographed Queen rehearsing for their Budapest show during the Magic Tour. While Denis was photographing the band, Freddie sat down and stretched out on Denis' photographer's case. Denis took a picture of the seated Freddie and in 2005, sold both the picture of Freddie atop the case and the case iteself to me. The case is literally covered in backstage passes from any concert imaginable: Pink Floyd, Michael Jackson, Brian May Band, Keith Richards, Ozzy, on and on. Denis O'Regan's British Airways frequent flier cards are attached to the handle of the case and clearly display "Denis O' Regan", as they are printed and sized just like a credit card. The same backstage passes viewable in the picture of Freddie are still on the case - even the very pass that Freddie sat his hand on. This item is something Freddie actually touched and sat on. I have contacted the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame Museum and intend on possibly selling the case to them, unless I can interest someone here on Queenzone in it.
So - if you have Paypal (if not, it's easy to register, as long as you hold a bank account) and are interested in purchasing this case, email me at addict015@yahoo.com (make the subject FREDDIE CASE). This will work auction-style and will start at $899. Email me your highest offer. I will reply to and sell the case to the highest bidder.
The picture of Freddie sitting on the case and a picture of the case as it appears now can be viewed at link
My mate manages a hotel which looks on to garden lodge. I m going to stay at the hotel soon and im going to go out in the garden and bottle some air.Would anyone be interested of buying any bottles ...i was thinking of £25.per bottle.
mrjordy,explain to us all one thing...why the topic title is "A Personal Item of Freddie's FOR SALE" and in the text you say " have a hard-shell silver photographer's case which belonged to Denis O'Regan"
so you decide... is a personal item of Freddie or Denis O'Regan?
Just because Freddie sitted on it,doesn't make it a "A Personal Item of Freddie"

I agree. Too much money you're asking. It isn't even autographed or something.
Dude, I think you would fair better just selling it to the rock and roll hall of fame, I would have personally kept it if I were you but, whatever, the thing is yours.
