Sketch by Beatles legend John Lennon is set to sell for £12000

Lennon gave it to publisher Tom Maschler, who worked with him on his books of stories and sketches in the Sixties.

Mr Maschler kept the unsigned 10ins by 8ins artwork for five decades.

He wrote: “I very much enjoyed working closely with John while he produced the drawings and writings for the critically acclaimed books I published for him In His Own Write and A Spaniard in the Works.

“John acknowledged the affection and esteem I had for his work by giving me the raw materials for his books when the projects came to a close.

“I think that ‘Lady Flying on a Wire’ is an exceptionally fine example of John’s work.
