John Lennon – you may remember him from such bands as The Beatles, Plastic Ono Band and Getting Drunk For Two Years With Harry Nilsson – is, like Michael Jackson and Elvis, one of the deadest, hardest working muvvers in showbiz.

Of course, being adopted by America, Lennon still stirs up a lot of interest with people still keen to paw over his memory.

Naturally, memorabilia is the big winner. So what’s being sold now? Would you believe us if we told you his teeth were up for auction? Cloning scientists, do your worst!

One of John Ono’s teeth is to be put up for auction in Stockport on November 5th and Omega Auctions’ Karen Fairweather – who is in charge of the lot – expects it to land some decent cash.

Talking to the Mirror, she says:

“This is the most -wonderful and weird item that we have ever had for sale… it is a truly unique item and it is really difficult to put a value on it. We are expecting it to achieve at least 10k but it is not unknown for items as rare as this to reach six figures.”

The errant tooth fell into the care of Lennon’s former housekeeper, Dot Jarlett, when the pulled it out himself and told Jarlett to give it to her daughter.

Dot’s son, Barry, says:

“He was in the kitchen and he had this tooth which he had wrapped in a piece of paper”

If some mad scientist with a cloning machine lands this tooth, we could well get a Beatles reunion! Won’t that be brilliant and REALLY BLOODY WEIRD?
