Rare music and film memorabilia take centre stage at Kruse GWS Auctions’ “Artifacts of Hollywood & Music” sale. The sale is set to feature nearly 400 lots, including two gold rings owned by Elvis Presley­—­estimated to fetch between US$35,000-60,000 (C$47,400- 81,300).

Several other lots are credited to Presley, including a microphone from his Las Vegas residency and a pill bottle dated March 1977.

Auctioneer Brigitte Kruse emphasized that Presley lots continue to be highly valued­. Jewellery owned by the star is “still proving to be one of the most powerful asset classes on the face of the planet,” she says in conversation with Reuters.
