Ronnie Wood’s ex-wife has sold off Stones memorabilia in a two-day auction. 

A worn white leather jacket belonging to Wood was sold for $8960, while a lithograph drawn by Wood of Epric Clapton, and signed by both, was sold for $5120. 

A cardboard cut-out of a guitar, given to Wood by bandmate by Keith Richards, reached almost $7000. The real thing, a 1955 Fender Stratocaster, commanded almost nine times that at $60,800. 

Proceeds from the auction were shared jointly by the former husband and wife, as part of their divorce settlement. 

Jo Wood will release her memoirs in February, charting her life as the spouse of a rock legend.
