A notebook containing handwritten lyrics by Freddie Mercury sells for £277,000 at auction. The item is described across outlets as a notebook with lyrics written by Mercury.
The sale takes place during Propstore’s Music Live Auction, with multiple reports noting it is the top-selling lot on day one. Coverage focuses on the winning bid and the significance of the handwritten materials, rather than broader auction results or additional items. Differences between outlets mainly concern the framing and auction-day context—such as whether it is highlighted specifically as the highest-selling lot on the first day—while the core details of the item and the sale price remain consistent.
The reports do not indicate changes to the final price after the winning bid, nor do they provide further information on the buyer or the notebook’s provenance beyond its described contents. Overall, the outlets converge on the same headline figure and item description: Mercury’s handwritten lyrics in a notebook, sold for £277,000 at Propstore’s event.
