Taylor Swift is an 11-time GRAMMY Award-winning artist and the only female in GRAMMY history to win Album of the Year three times. She has sold over 200 million records worldwide, making her one of the best-selling artists of all-time. In 2020, the global superstar stunned the world with the release of Swift's GRAMMY-nominated surprise album evermore, just months after the release of her GRAMMY Album of the Year, folklore. A 2020 Epiphone DR-100EB acoustic guitar (photo right) featuring custom graphics from the album artwork has signed to the body by Swift, with a small heart drawn to the side (estimate: $5,000 - $10,000). The folk and alternative rock album evermore was released during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Nicks has added the inscription "Much Love" above her signature. The guitar is donated by Gibson and restored by Gibson's Repair and Restoration Shop. Over their storied five-decade history of renowned musicianship, songwriting, vocal harmonies and camaraderie, the GRAMMY Award-winning pop rock band has given the world a lifetime of illustrious performances and some of the most beloved and best-selling music ever recorded, selling over 97 million albums worldwide and were inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of fame in 1998.

Her 1971 album Blue–included in the boxed set– is considered one of the best albums of all time in any genre. Over the course of her six-decade career, Mitchell has received ten GRAMMY Awards, including a Lifetime Achievement award in 2002. She was also inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1997. She also received the Polar Music Prize and in her native Canada the Governor General's Performing Arts Award for Lifetime Artistic Achievement. Another stellar highlight is a watercolor painting of Mitchell created live by world-renowned artist Rob Prior before her MusiCares Person of the Year ceremony. At the event, Mitchell stopped by to observe Prior creating the painting (which was based on a photo by Joel Bernstein) and the acclaimed painter contributed a brushstroke or two herself (photo right credit: David Becker) which was shared via a photo of the moment on Mitchell's Twitter account (estimate $2,000 - $4,000).

He made his film acting debut starring in the 2002 musical drama 8 Mile whose soundtrack included the smash hit "Lose Yourself" which became one of his most iconic songs and earned Eminem an Academy Award for Best Original Song and the honor of being the first hip hop artist ever to win the award.
