”The Supremes” 1960’s Contract Signed by Diana Ross, Mary Wilson & Florence Ballard
”The Supremes” contract signed by the original trio of Diana Ross, Mary Wilson and Florence Ballard. Undated contract is from the mid 1960’s, at the height of their fame and before Ballard left the group in 1967. Seven-page contract with their booking agent, General Artists Corporation, is signed on the last page by all three women. Measures 8” x 11”. Slight toning, else near fine. An exceptional piece from the most successful vocal group of all time. Sold for $589.
Circa 1965 poster signed by three of the original Supremes: Diana Ross, Mary Wilson and Florence Ballard. The bill is for a show at San Francisco’s Venetian Room and features semi-gloss pictures of the three performers, under which they each sign their first name. Diana also boldly writes ”Supremes” on the poster, which measures 11” x 13.75”. Some defects on margins: an inkspill on right side, 1.25” tear along upper right, tape and previous owner’s name at top. Good condition, with PSA/DNA COA. Sold for $566.
One of the most covered and influential songs of all time, ”Like a Rolling Stone” lyrics are here handwritten and signed by their creator, Bob Dylan. With this song, Dylan reinvigorated his passion for his own work and fully embraced rock music (”play it fucking loud” he told his band) as a complement to folk. Clocking in at 6 1/2 minutes long, the song was initially thought too long to be commercially successful, until listeners in the mid-60s harassed radio stations to play it in its entirety. ”Like a Rolling Stone” has been covered by Jimi Hendrix, The Rolling Stones and countless others, and inspired even more. Bruce Springsteen first heard it when he was 15 years old: ”on came that snare shot that sounded like somebody’d kicked open the door to your mind…The way that Elvis freed your body, Dylan freed your mind, and showed us that because the music was physical did not mean it was anti-intellect. He had the vision and talent to make a pop song so that it contained the whole world. He invented a new way a pop singer could sound, broke through the limitations of what a recording could achieve, and he changed the face of rock’n’roll for ever and ever.” Perhaps the greatest mystery in music is trying to figure out who Dylan is referring to in the song — even Andy Warhol has been mentioned — but ultimately, rock historians believe it speaks to anyone, even Dylan himself, who eschews an easy, pretentious life for one that is riskier but ultimately more fulfilling, with ”nothing to lose” and ”no secrets to conceal”. Single page measures 8.5” x 11”. In near fine condition. With COA from Jeff Rosen, Bob Dylan’s manager. Sold for $90,000.
Michael Jackson’s iconic ”Beat It” jacket, worn by Jackson during the 1988 Madison Square Gardens tour, and signed by the superstar. The globally-renowned and beloved entertainer signs the jacket just below the collar in the back, ”To Ari / Love / Michael Jackson / 1988” in black felt tip. Red leather jacket with fine chain mail detailing to the shoulders is universally recognizable as the design worn by Jackson in the music video for ”Beat It.” The chart-topping single was responsible for launching the entire ”Thriller” record on a trajectory toward its ultimate position as the best-selling album of all time. Designed by J. Parks, Jackson wore the ”Beat It” jacket while performing in 1988. Michael gave this jacket to Epic Records President Ron Alexenburg’s son; Alexenburg signed the Jackson 5 to Epic Records, where Michael’s career took off. Size 40 jacket has Alexenburg’s name handwritten on the label; overall near fine condition. With provenance from Julien’s Auctions. Sold for $84,422.
