A devoted fan of The Beatles is putting his entire collection of memorabilia up for auction. Frenchman Jacques Volcouve has been immersed in Beatlemania for over 50 years but has decided to finally share his “pleasure and passion”.Volcouve, now in his 60s, first discovered the legendary British band with their iconic 1967 album Sgt Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band. What transpired was decades of dedicating his life to collecting 15,000 posters, signed books, autographs, figurines and other memorabilia, which will now go up for auction at Paris’ prestigious Hotel Drouot on 18 March.
