Elvis Presley's fingerprints will go up for sale at auction in London this Thursday. The prints appear on an application made by Presley to hold a concealed gun and are thought to be the only set in existence. The auction is the latest sale of music memorabilia at the Idea Generation Gallery in Shoreditch and will also include the first guitar Jimi Hendrix ever set light to, the last surviving drum-kit of Led Zeppelin's John Bonham, Jim Morrison's final notebook of poetry, and the song-sheet for Band Aid's 'We Are The World' signed by Michael Jackson, Stevie Wonder, Bruce Springsteen, Bob Dylan and others.
