Description

Exceptionally rare vintage ballpoint signatures of Derek and the Dominoes — “Eric Clapton,” “Bobby Whitlock,” “Carl Radle,” and “Jim Gordon” — on an off-white 8 x 6.5 sheet. The consignor notes that autographs were obtained at The Penthouse in Leeds, England, on October 10, 1970. In fine condition, with intersecting folds. Accompanied by a certificate of authenticity from Tracks and a letter of provenance from the original recipient: “Leeds and Bradford University hosted some high-profile bands in the early 1970s. This band was playing at Leeds University in 1970. I have found the date to be 10th October 1970. I attended the concert with friends and waited at the end to get autographs. They have been out of sight but in my belongings for safekeeping for 54+ years.” Full signature sets of Derek and the Dominos remain appreciably rare given the band’s brief tenure as a band, which roughly lasted one year, from 1970 to 1971.
