    Hi,

    Radio dj Mike Read has been declared bankrupt due to unpaid taxes. To help pay for these, he has put up his record collection for sale by auction.

    He has over 120,000 records including many rare items. These include many rare signed records from the likes of the Beatles, Rolling Stones, David Bowie, Marc Bolan etc.

    The collection includes a 1950s Rock-ola Jukebox full of records.
    There are plenty other bits of memorabilia such as letters and signed photos.

    The collection is being sold as I write. It is been sold in lots.
