Description

Vintage ballpoint signatures of the Rolling Stones— “Mick Jagger, xx,” “Brian Jones, xx,” “Keith Richard,” Bill Wyman,” and “The Rolling Stones, Charlie Boy, xx”—on an off-white autograph album centerfold page measuring 8.75 x 3.5, the reverse of which has been signed again by Jones and Richards. In fine condition.

Accompanied by a letter of provenance from the original recipient, in part: “This is my account of the evening when the Rolling Stones appeared at Torquay Town Hall on Saturday 29th August 1964….I had already given my autograph book to my uncle Jeff (who was working backstage that night)…After the show I collected my album from my uncle, who told me where the Rolling Stones were going to eat…Our destination a rather posh Italian restaurant, phonetically ‘Saffonies’…practically right next door to the Queens Hotel, which is where the Rolling Stones would have preferred to stay. We were the only people there peering in the large glass windows, then rewarded when the Rolling Stones entered via the back staircase and sat at a table in an alcove next to the stairs. I turned around to speak to my sister but she wasn’t there, looked again into the restaurant and was absolutely astounded to see her stood next to their table. They all signed her concert program for the cost of a kiss with Mick Jagger.” Accompanied by a copy of the ticket for the Stones concert at Torquay Town Hall on August 29, 1964.
