The White Album was released in November 1968 and was the ninth studio album from the iconic band. Ringo Star’s personal copy of the album went on sale fifty years later and fetched a staggering $790,000 at auction.

The reason for this is twofold, firstly it was owned by Star himself and was in his personal collection. He is quoted as saying that the new owner of the record will receive it with his fingerprints on the vinyl. Secondly, the record was numbered No.0000001. Each of the records were numbered and this was the very first one ever made. 

There is a huge market for Beatles memorabilia as the band is so iconic. Anything from lyrics sheets to other artifacts can go for hundreds of thousands (if not millions) of dollars. This particular sale is notable, but there were many before and there will be many that follow.
