His widow and children of Peel - whose real name was John Ravenscroft - Said he had collected a " wealth of souvenirs" through his close access to stars and events.
" In going through the accumulation of 40 Years of Pop Music moments, we decided that some of The Most interesting items might find a home, with fans of his programme or of the artists whose music he played, " they Said .
" We hope these items find the attention and appreciation that we're sure John/Dad would feel they warranted.
" We had no desire to split up his beloved Record Collection but have included in the sale a selection of particularly rare or unique records that do not Take Away from the integrity of his archive. "
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.
One item, with an estimate of between £15,000 and £20,000, is a mono pressing of Lennon and Ono 's 1968 LP Two Virgins, 1968, which famously had them pictured naked on The Cover .
