Oddly enough, you could have asked that question seriously - and people who watch Antiques Roadshow would tell you that if someone could prove that Picasso definitely owned and used a set of brushes (or even one brush), an auctioneer could have a dandy time presiding over a bidding war.

Similarly, musical instruments previously owned by famous musicians command a higher price than the instruments by the same makers that come with no ownership provenance or an undistinguished provenance, as you can see on this well-respected website about violins:
http://www.cozio.com/

It's possible that a true blind test might reveal that a Strad previously owned by Freddy Fartbucket might be better than one owned by Joseph Joachim, but lots of luck getting the same price.
