-

A 300-YEAR-OLD violin used to record Over The Rainbow in The Wizard of Oz is tipped to sell for £14million.

The instrument was made in 1714 by Antonio Stradivari. It is said to be his most sought-after creation and could become the world’s most expensive violin.

It was entered for sale at New York-based auction house Tarisio and will be showcased in London, Berlin and Tokyo. Tarisio director Carlos Tome said: ‘There has not been a violin like this at auction for decades.’
