Freddie Mercury would have turned 79 today—and tomorrow marks the anniversary of the night his legacy took center stage at #SothebysLondon. In one of the evening’s most unforgettable moments, his silver snake bangle—worn in the 1975 Bohemian Rhapsody video—ignited a rapid-fire bidding battle before selling for £698,500, nearly 100 times its estimate. That record-setting result was part of 'Freddie Mercury: A World of His Own', a white-glove Evening Sale that totaled £12.2 million and captured the full spirit of the Queen frontman.
