In the 1980s, the broadcaster was a presenter on Top Of The Pops and regularly covered the Glastonbury Festival , with The John Peel Stage being dedicated to him in 2004.
Objects from his Collection , including records, personal correspondence and memorabilia, will be auctioned at Bonhams Knightsbridge on 14 June - the week before Glastonbury's 50th anniversary.
