A Bowie print by a world-renowned artist, and Lionel Messi's signed Barcelona shirt, are just two of many star-studded items going under the virtual hammer to support a local charity helping rape and sexual assault survivors.
Jersey Action Against Rape (JAAR) this week launched its first ever auction, which will be running until 9 December.
For movie buffs, there's a Hogwarts Express ticket signed by Harry Potter himself (Daniel Radcliffe), and a photo of James Bond signed by Roger Moore.
Art lovers will be delighted to find a work monogrammed from Dali’s hand, as well as works from Chagall, Miró and Matisse, and a limited edition poster print from Tracey Emin.
Music fans can make a bid for an LIP signed by members of Pink Floyd, limited edition print of David Bowie, designed and signed by artist Paul Normansell, who also created the cover for the Killers’ album, Day & Age.
Pictured: The Bowie print is one of only 195.
For sports fans, there's a boxing glove signed by Tyson Fury and Lionel Messi's signed Barcelona shirt - though the item expected to fetch the most is a presentation signed by the England's winning 1966 team.
Sitting alongside them are an array of dazzling jewellery items, including 1.00 Carat studded earrings, as well as more affordable luxuries, ranging from Jersey Hemp's Full Spectrum CBD Oil to handmade apple juice using local produce.
The auction comes as JAAR, which is Express’s chosen charity for 2020, has seen a decrease in its finances, but an increase in demand for its services.
In September, JAAR told Express they had lost out on thousands in fundraising as a result of the pandemic, and that they had “definitely seen a rise in demand as people had time on their hands to think and were not distracted by their usual busy schedules and therefore, they needed help processing events that had affected their lives historically.”
