Description

One-of-a-kind candid photos of Queen, signed prior to a concert at the Oakland Arena in 1977

Marvelous set of four color candid photos of the members of Queen from late 1977, semi-glossy and satin-finish, 5 x 7 and 7 x 5, individually signed in blue ballpoint or black ink by the pictured musician: Freddie Mercury, Brian May, John Deacon, and Roger Taylor. According to the consignor, the photos were taken at the band’s hotel prior to them departing for their concert at the Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum Arena on December 17, 1977; pictured in the background of the Mercury photo is his former manager Paul Prenter. Reverse of each photo bears “This Paper Manufactured by Kodak” watermarks. Includes two color satin-finish 3.5 x 4.5 photos of Mercury and May performing at the aforesaid concert, as well as a ticket stub for a Queen concert at the Oakland-Alameda Coliseum on September 7, 1982, presumably the date these autographs were obtained. In overall fine condition, with some spotting to the emulsion on the May photo.
