A series of Mick Jagger’s love letters to Marsha Hunt, Jagger's former lover and the mother of his first child, he wrote in 1969 are up for the auction the next month, The Guardian says.
Jagger sent her in July and August of 1969 while he was filming the movie Ned Kelly in New South Wales, Australia. The Philadelphia-born singer is said to be the inspiration for the Rolling Stones' 1971 hit, “Brown Sugar,” Rolling Stone reports.
All ten letters will be sold by Sotheby's as one lot on December 12th; they are expected to fetch somewhere between £70,000 and £100,000.
Hunt said that she is selling the letters in order to pay the electric bill and fund repairs on the house in France where she lives.
