Description

Vintage circa 1968 ballpoint signatures, "Rick Wright," "Roger," and "David Gilmour," on an off-white 5.5 x 3.25 sheet of graphing paper, with drummer Nick Mason, despite not adding his signature, writing out the band's name in large bubble letters, "Pink Floyd." The sheet also bears a collector's date notation of October 16, 1968. In fine condition, with old tape stains to the side edges. Accompanied by a letter of provenance from the daughter of the original recipient, who states that her father obtained the autographs "on 16th October 1968 after their show at Theatre de Huitieme in Lyon, France." These signatures date to Pink Floyd's massive first world tour, which lasted from February 17th to December 28, 1968, and spanned 116 shows across Europe and North America. Because vocalist and primary songwriter Syd Barrett left the band in April of that year, Waters took on a greater role during live shows and several of Barrett's songs were dropped from the band's set lists.
