Christie’s auction house says it raised $21.5 million Thursday, June 20, 2019, selling off more than 120 guitars owned by the Pink Floyd guitarist, singer and songwriter. Proceeds went to ClientEarth, a non-profit fighting climate change. A black Stratocaster, dubbed the “Black Strat”, was the top item and was snatched up for $3,975,000, a new world record for a guitar at auction. (AP Photo/Kirsty Wigglesworth, File)
