Pattie Boyd Collection: Rare Clapton Love Letters Up For Auction

Collection includes handwritten lyrics, photographs, and personal correspondence.

Pattie Boyd, the iconic muse of George Harrison and Eric Clapton, is set to auction off a collection of cultural memorabilia that offers a glimpse into the golden era of British music and fashion. The collection, aptly named the 'Pattie Boyd Collection,' includes handwritten lyrics from Clapton, photographs of the Beatles and Harrison, portraits of Boyd herself, treasured objets d'art, and personal correspondence between Boyd and Clapton.

One of the highlights of the collection is the original painting used for the 1970 Derek and the Dominoes album 'Layla And Other Songs,' valued at $40,000-$60,000. Clapton chose this painting for the album cover because he believed it resembled Boyd.
