Aside from some artwork, there are original lyrics and notes to a few of the songs penned by FM, his waistcoat with his 6 cats printed on the front, the guitar on which he 'composed' Crazy Little Thing Called Love, and many more items.
When asked why she was selling now, she replied that she believes it's time to get her affairs in order and all she is keeping are the personal gifts FM bought for her.

I attended a Queen fan club convention in the early 80's to write about it for a magazine.
An auctioned lot was one of Freddie's stage leotards (unwashed) which went for more than £800.
I spoke to the lady who had the winning bid and she told me that her delight was somewhat tempered by the fact that she would have to wait until she got home to tell her husband that they were selling the car!

People derive pleasure in endless ways - some enjoy collecting memorabilia, and there is a massive lucrative market in it.
I'm not a fan myself, even though I have far more access to it than most people, but I have no issue with people enjoying owning things from famous people, if it gives them pleasure.
For me, anything that doesn't cause pain or damage is fine, if people want to indulge, no worries.

Apparently Steve McQueen’s underpants were sold. As was Rasputin’s penis, Napoleons penis, and famously Marilyn Monroe’s dress for ludicrous amounts. You may be alright with it Andy, I’m not. I find it obscene that the obsession to own, and goodness knows do what with deceased cast off’s unhealthy. And a complete waste of money that could be put to much better use. But that’s me.
Back when hangings were public, the hangman would typically cut the roped used into inch-long pieces and sell them as souvenirs to the assembled masses. Of course, they would always have many more pieces available from other items not actually used in the hanging itself, hence "money for old rope". People love a souvenir.
