What Would You Pay For John Lennon’s Tooth, or Other Rock Memorabilia? [PHOTOS]
Now I like the Beatles as much as the next guy, but the guy after that guy that is willing to spend upwards of $16,000 on one of John Lennon's tooth, he is just crazy! The tooth that was given as a souvenir to Lennon's housekeeper will go under the hammer on Nov. 5 and is expected to fetch nearly $16,000. Just yesterday we reported a letter written by Paul McCartney would also be sold, and all this selling got us to thinking about some other extremely pricey pieces of rock history...
