Kurt Cobain's Sweater from MTV Unplugged sold at Auction

According to a report from Rolling Stone, Kurt Cobain's famous green cardigan he wore during Nirvana's set on MTV Unplugged sold for a whopping $330,000 at an auction this Saturday, making it one of the most expensive sweaters ever sold at an auction. Moreover, it doubled its final bid price from approximately four years ago. Back in November of 2015, Kurt's sweater was sold through Julien's Auctions for $137,500, far surpassing the previous estimate which was set at $60,000. Before the Saturday auction took place, the sweater had passed the $200,000 minimum bid before going past the $300,000 pre-auction estimate. Furthermore, the sweater came with a handwritten letter of provenance from Jackie Farry, who was Frances Bean Cobain's nanny and a personal friend of Courtney Love. Courtney gave her the sweater after Kurt Cobain killed himself in April of 1994. #kurtcobain #nirvana #grunge #s #davegrohl #kristnovoselic #rock #nevermind #inutero #music #nirva
