Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.A collection of Beatles memorabilia owned by George Harrison's family is expected to sell for six figures at auction next month.
It includes a leather jacket he bought during the band's stint in Hamburg which he wore on stage in Germany and at the Cavern Club.
It is expected to sell for around £120,000 at the sale at Bonham's in London on December 12.
Also in the collection, which was given by Harrison to his brother, Harry, and other relatives are a pair of custom-made boots which could sell for around £15,000.
A guitar owned by fellow Beatle Sir Paul McCartney in the 1950s will also be sold with an estimated price of £30,000.
Harrison, who died in 2001, wrote some of the band's most enduring songs including Something and Here Comes The Sun.
He also worked as a film producer, helped back Monty Python's Life of Brian and through his company Handmade Films was responsible for The Long Good Friday, Time Bandits and Mona Lisa.
