The vinyl collection largely contains duplicates, according to the British institution, and won’t affect the BBC’s core vinyl archive. The auction is being run by Omega Auctions — an auction house that specialises in music items— and will contain rare vinyl, BBC memorabilia and audio equipment including microphones, broadcasting consoles, and an ‘On Air’ BBC Radio lightbox.
The majority of the auction contains vinyl records, with everything from jazz and krautrock collections to a Pink Floyd rarities LP pack. The auction will also include a copy of the Beatles ‘Please Please Me’ LP pressings pack.
