Description

Vintage ballpoint signatures of Brian Jones, Mick Jagger, Keith Richards, Bill Wyman, and Charlie Watts on a beige 6 x 3.5 envelope. In very good to fine condition, with scattered light creasing and a central vertical fold. Consignor notes that the signatures were obtained on a ferry on March 22, 1964, when the Stones were traveling to the Isle of Wight to perform an evening show at the Esplanade Pavilion. Accompanied by a certificate of authenticity from Tracks and a letter of provenance: "My next door neighbour was working on the Isle of Wight ferry, which crosses from Portsmouth Harbour to Ryde on the Isle of Wight. My neighbour was aware that my father was a Rolling Stones fan, and was shocked to find them on his ferry that day crossing to the island. He was able to obtain all the members of the bands autographs, which included the late Brian Jones. On returning home from his shift, he gladly gave the envelope with all the signatures on to my dad. My father gave them to me prior to him passing away in 1979, and have been with me ever since."
