I'm a pinhead I Suppose.
Listing price reflects the significance of the timing in which this was signed - 1976 at the infancy of their career - all four original signatures IN BALLPOINT PEN - and even the signature of Arturo Vega their designer and co/manager. Unfortunately all 5 of these man have passed away a very long time ago.
As a Ramones fan since the age of 9, and as someone who has a portrait of Joey Ramone tattooed on their arm. The price also reflects that. I AM HAPPY TO CONSIDER REASONABLE OFFERS - this honestly belongs in a museum and not with me -
Price Also Includes SHIPPING AND FULL INSURANCE - DOMESTIC OR INTERNATIONALLY - GUARANTEE THE SAFEST AND HONEST SHIPPING -
I AM A PROFESSIONAL RECORD DEALER - Typically Specializing in 45rpm Records from the 50's and 60's - i.e. All the Records That Inspired The Ramones themselves.
Signed by Tommy, Joey, Johnny and Dee Dee and Arturo Vega in BALL POINT PEN - Indentations are clear Never Will Smudge and this is the GREATEST example of their signatures and writing style - just like one would think Joey's Signature is the HEAVIEST :)
AUTHENTICATED by both:
MONTE MELNICK - Directly by Ramones Tour Manager for over 2,200 Shows and Author of "ON THE ROAD WITH THE RAMONES"
and JAMES MARSHALL - aka RADIO DJ "THE HOUND" (WFMU) - Archivist / Collector & Husband of Author GILLIAN MCCAIN "Please Kill Me" The Autobiography of NYC Punk in The 70's .
