Nirvana's signed Nevermind album sells for £18,600 at auction

An extremely rare, fully signed cover of Nirvana's 'Nevermind' album, autographed by Kurt Cobain, Dave Grohl, and Krist Novoselic after a 1991 Bristol gig, has sold at auction for £18,600. The item, stored in a loft for over 30 years by a local fan who obtained the signatures after the 700-person Bierkeller show, was described by auctioneers as possibly the best-signed example ever to come to market. Auctioneer and music specialist Martin Hughes noted that full sets of Nirvana signatures from this era are extremely rare and have attracted global collector interest. The local connection to Bristol and the legendary status of the gig added to the item's appeal. The vendor, a well-known local Rock & Metal DJ, recounted how personal access to the band and venue staff enabled him to secure the signatures. The sale has been highlighted as a significant event in music memorabilia circles.
