A selection of unique memorabilia associated with the legendary Black Sabbath frontman, Ozzy Osbourne, including autographed guitars and personalized costumes showcasing his distinctive style, was put up for auction just one day following his passing.

Osbourne passed away on Tuesday at the age of 76 after a prolonged struggle with Parkinson’s disease. In his final weeks, he focused on cherishing moments with his family and organizing the “Back to the Beginning” finale charity event alongside his fellow band members on July 5.

On Wednesday, six items used or signed by Osbourne were put up for auction by Gotta Have Rock and Roll, a New Jersey-based auction house.

The coveted items, expected to sell anywhere between $5,000 and $40,000, will be available for bidding through August 8.

The first item available for bidding is an intricate coat adorned with graffiti-style art, which Osbourne wore during the “Retirement Sucks Tour” spanning from 1995 to 1996, as detailed on the auction house’s website.

The other jacket, while less intricate in its design, is entirely made of black mesh — a request Osbourne specifically made as he apparently “had a tendency to get himself soaking wet on stage,” which the mesh would prevent, according to the listing.

The mesh jacket was part of Osbourne’s personal wardrobe, but was worn on stage once during a show in 2011, according to the website.

Both jackets are expected to sell for up to $40,000.

Other items up for auction include two guitars signed by all the Black Sabbath members.

Beyond the auction house, Lamb of God frontman Randy Blythe, whose heavy metal band performed at Black Sabbath’s final concert in July, is auctioning off a pair of Adidas signed by Osbourne that were specifically made as gifts for the performers.

Blythe had promised Osbourne just 10 days before his death that he would auction the shoes off to make a greater contribution to the same charities benefited from the “Back to the Beginning” show, including Cure Parkinson’s, Birmingham Children’s Hospital and Acorn Children’s Hospice, according to a post on Instagram.

“This is how I would like to thank & honor him for all he did for music, my band, & myself. The shoes will be part of a larger auction that is being organized right now. Details soon,” Blythe wrote.

“Thank you Ozzy. We love you.”
