The bidding starts at $25,000, so apologies if your bank account is not up to the challenge. But maybe we should just let the man rest in peace. But is it worth $60,000 to own the personal effects of a beloved deceased man? A button may be absent - but Cobain did perform a great, iconic set with his band while wearing it, so maybe it’s a trade-off.
vintage fuzzy cardigan / striped cardigan / 1960s brown striped acrylic mohair fuzzy Kurt Cobain cardigan Medium. This is like found-word poetry written from the essence of Kurt Cobain himself. Kurt Cobain Cardigan Sweater, Unplugged Nirvana Concert 90s, Kurt Cobain's '90s Cardigan, Mohair Cardigan, Gray Knit Cardigan. Baggy, missing a button and in a unique shade of retro green, Cobain. There to perform as part of the MTV Unplugged series, the bleached-blonde musician was wearing a thrift store cardigan.
The sweater is listed on Julien’s Live auction house and described thusly: “The Manhattan brand sweater is a blend of acrylic, mohair and Lycra with five-button closure (one button absent), with two exterior pockets, a burn hole and discoloration near left pocket and discoloration on right pocket, size medium.” One historical moment no one saw serving as fashion inspiration today, however, was when Nirvana singer Kurt Cobain took to the MTV stage in November 1993. Nirvana frontman Kurt Cobain wore the green button-up during the band's MTV. Would it surprise you that some people still want to make money from his brief time on Earth?Ī not-insignificant number of Cobain’s personal effects are coming to auction, which means we must ask: Would you be willing to spend $60,000 on a cardigan that Cobain wore during Nirvana’s very memorable MTV Unplugged set? Surely, there are better things to spend money on than the picked-through remnants of Cobain’s estate? Feel like sending your first kid to a year and a half of college, or no? A stained, cigarette-burned cardigan unwashed in nearly three decades has sold at auction for 334,000 (260,000).
