Includes an off-white Ramones guitar pick, 1.25 x 1.25, used on stage by Ramone at the same concert. In overall very good to fine condition, with some creasing, surface impressions, and staining to the bottom of the photo.

Accompanied by a letter of provenance from avid Ramones collector and fan Robert Martel, who states: "This one-of-a-kind photo was taken on August 28, 1982 when I saw the Ramones at a Hampton, Beach ('Club Casino') show…I was a guest of the band and had been given front row seats for the show. Johnny tossed me the pick during a break in their performance. I took the photo that day on a 110mm camera…It was autographed by Johnny at a Strawberries Records in-store signing on October 13th, 1984 in Manchester, NH, hosted by my personal friend, former bandmate, and renowned Ramones expert Chris Lamy."
