Veteran rocker Pete Townshend is selling off his possessions in a bid to raise money for animal charities. The Who star's girlfriend, Rachel Fuller, has spearheaded the campaign, which sees the musician's memorabilia on auction site eBay.

Among the items being auctioned are a pair of boots, pens and a personal stereo - with each item accompanied by a certificate of authentication signed by Townshend. A pair of trousers Townshend wore on The Who's world tour earlier this year have so far reached $980.

A spokesperson for the star says, "It's all for good causes."
