Sotheby’s will auction off a wide range of Queen frontman Freddie Mercury items in September.

The items come from the contents of the Garden Lodge in London, the house where Mercury lived out the last years of his life. Mercury died in 1991 at the age of 45 from AIDS.

The items were auctioned off by Mary Austin, who bequeathed the Garden Lodge and its contents to him. Austin was one of the rock singer’s best friends and the two lived together for a long time.

Austin said, “For many years it has been a pleasure and a privilege to be surrounded by all the wonderful things Freddie loves so much. But the time has come for me to make the difficult decision and close a very special chapter in my life.” In today’s press release.

Austin said he will donate a portion of the proceeds from the sale to two AIDS foundations: the Mercury Phoenix Trust and the Elton John AIDS Foundation.
