In fine condition, with scattered scuffs and marks from use.
Accompanied by an original photograph of Clemons and a friend posing with the saxophone, which Clemons gave to her as a birthday present, and a copy of a notarized letter of provenance: “1984 was the year that I received the white sax. Clarence had a room especially for his saxophones, pictures, and his memorabilia. At that time, he had 7-8 different saxs which he notated playing. He did not often leave the house without a sax. He used the white LA Sax quite a bit in the seventies. He had a Grace Jones haircut, wore a white tux, & played a white sax.”
