The lot will appear in the highly anticipated Rock & Roll History auction on June 24 with an estimate of $2,000-3,000.

Harrison had tried to reform the Beatles for the charity concert in New York, but rowed with Lennon over Ono's involvement. Paul McCartney refused to be involved.

The sale will feature a huge range of lots, including John Lennon's piano and guitar organ, Jimi Hendrix's PPX contract and a guitar smashed by Kurt Cobain.
