Singer Taylor Swift lyrics, which are rare memorabilia, have been listed for sale on e-commerce company eBay with a price tag of $1 million. Swift’s handwritten lyric sheet, which she claims features her own writing, has garnered attention for its unprecedented valuation in the world of pop culture collecting.
Taylor Swift’s influence on the music industry and around the world is immense; her songs are often considered deeply personal and poetic. Skyrocketing demand for his memorabilia reflects his cultural influence market. Previous sales of Swift’s handwritten lyrics have been remarkably high, though nothing close to the current asking price on eBay.
The eBay listing calls Swift’s handwritten lyrics an authentic piece of music history and states that they come with proof of authenticity from JSA (James Spence Authentication) and Beckett.
Earlier, a framed lyric sheet for Swift’s first single, “Tim McGraw,” handwritten by Swift, sold for more than $80,000 at Goldin Auctions and included Swift’s signature and one from co-writer Liz Rose.
Another Julien’s Auctions “White Horse,” a song Swift co-wrote with Rose but written entirely by Rose, was expected to fetch between $600 and $800 but ended up selling for $384.
eBay Description: The most famous person in the world right now is Taylor Swift, who has sold over 150 million albums worldwide and completed the highest-grossing tour of all time. Swift’s success started after the release of her first single, “Tim McGraw,” in 2006.
Whether the eBay listing will attract serious bidders at current prices remains to be seen. If the item sells, it will set a new high for the value of music memorabilia around the world, especially from modern artists.
