Jack White, along with his record label Third Man, have collaborated with Everything But The House to put items from his personal collection and the label’s archives up for auction. The funds raised will partly be donated to Clark Park Coalition in Southwest Detroit. The auction details can be found here.
The collection up for bidding encompasses a variety of items – from music equipment and music video set pieces to furniture, electric vehicles, and mechanical collectibles. Some noteworthy pieces include the Framus acoustic guitar from the White Stripes era featured in the “We’re Going To Be Friends” video, White’s own blue Ernie Ball St. Vincent guitar used during the Boarding House Reach tour, the striking yellow vintage CitiCar used by Third Man for delivering the World’s Fastest Record, equipment from the Third Man Studio, set pieces from the Raconteurs’ Consolers of the Lonely album photoshoot, and White’s own 2013 Tesla Model S.
Back in August 2020, White and Third Man put up guitars, Meg White’s crash cymbal, and the drum set from the White Stripes’ “Hardest Button to Button” music video for auction to raise funds for the John Peel Centre, Gideon’s Army, and the Detroit Phoenix Center.

Always knew Jack was a stand up guy. His music’s killer and he’s out here doing good work in the community. can’t wait for his new film appearance.
Gotta love a celeb who’s into electric cars, especially one that owns a vintage CitiCar AND a Tesla. Great to see them in the auction. gonna check it out!
His new pressing plant is where it’s at, people. Clean pressings, limited editions, and now charity auctions… what more could u ask for? respect, Jack.
What a collection of memorabilia he’s got. Wish I had the bucks to bid on the guitar he used in “We’re Going to Be Friends”. absolutely love that song!
