The eBay auction will generate funds for the team from the Balmain Campus to assist the girls to represent their school in Hawaii next month.

The award was presented to Mark by Atlantic Records France to signify the sale of 100,000 for the ‘High Voltage’ album, the Australian band’s first European release.

The plaque also features the misspelling of ‘Albert Productions’ as ‘Albeit Productions’.

Mark will personally write a message to the highest bidder on the back of the item and also include a personally signed copy of his autobiography ‘Dirty Deeds: My Life Inside & Outside of AC/DC’.

The auction will continue for the next week.
