Full of information about the creators of the exhibits, and interesting snippets and anecdotes about their owner. Freddie designed Queen's logos. He trained in graphic design. The main logo incorporated all their astrological signs.

He worked closely with the chosen designers for the stage outfits, occasionally even sourcing and giving them the fabric he wanted used. He was good with a needle and sometimes sewed on his own embellishments.

Freddie was an erudite collector over a broad spectrum, although he rarely attended actions himself, sending his assistant Peter, or Mary, with his marked up catalogue (and no top bid!). He did however arrange to have private views, and said Sotherby's was one of his favourite places.

Despite his great love of Japan, he didn't like sushi or sashimi. I'm with him on that. Despite never having visited the country myself I have been fascinated by it since a kid.

On food, Freddie loved a good English breakfast.

I saw Queen live at Hyde Park in 1976. ( )
