First of all, i know absolutely not a jot about any sort of music just thought i'd run this by you on here.

Anyway i was speaking to the GF yesterday and she told me her Dad had in his possesion some genuine handwritten lyrics from 'The Who' he was given these over 20 years ago and has kept them ever since.

I dont think he'd sell them and is quite happy to hold onto them but when she told me i thought crikey they maybe worth a couple of hundred quid.

Now i dont know how valuable memoribilia from 'The Who' is worth but is stuff like this worth anything to a collector?

Thanks in advance chaps.

Yeah I would suspect they could be worth quite a bit.

Do you know what song(s) it's for.

I honestly haven't a clue. she is going to pick his brains a bit more about it this week.

As soon as she said 'The Who' my ears pricked up, i dont think i would have had the same reaction if she had said they were 'Hearsay' lyrics lol.

The only thing she said is he has quite a number of these lyrics for quite a few different songs.
