DESCRIPTION:  This is an opportunity to purchase an original candid photo of three members of THE BEACH BOYS.  BRIAN WILSON, CARL WILSON and AL JARDINE have each signed this 11x14 inch photo in blue sharpie.

I am the original recipient of all three autographs and obtained them in-person in 1989.  I am also the photographer who took this photo at Lunken Airport in Cincinnati in 1979, after their plane landed, as they killed time waiting for their bus to arrive.  This photo is an original print made from the original envelope and contains my copyright stamp on the back.

SHIPPING:  $25.00.  Items shipped first class mail, fully insured.

PAYMENT:  Pay Pal is accepted.  I also accept other forms of payment, feel free to inquire.

BACKGROUND:  A pioneer in the autograph field, I have six decades of first-hand autograph experience.  I began collecting autographs in-person in 1960, and have collected ever since  -  all sports, music, politics and more.  I am a well-known and respected figure in the autograph field, known as "The King of Autographs" (KOA.)  

AUTHENTICITY:  Purchase with confidence!  All autographed items are guaranteed authentic for life. I only offer autographed material of names I have first-hand experience with, whose signatures I know very well and am 100% sure of their authenticity.  All signed items $25 and above receive a personalized Letter of Authenticity (LOA) on my KOA letterhead, which includes a photo of the item (see sample LOA.)  The LOA provides authentication certification, and eliminates the need for encapsulation or an unsightly and unnecessary sticker on the item.

PROVENANCE:  Many signed items offered come with provenance (knowledge of history and origin of the item)  -  and of those, many were obtained personally by myself and others were obtained by longtime collector friends.  This is an added bonus that very few sellers are able to provide.   

AUTHENTICATION:  I am regarded by veteran hobbyists as the top first-hand autograph expert in the business!  I am president of a third-party autograph authentication firm, FIRST-HAND AUTHENTICATION (FHA.)  FHA is the only autograph authentication firm where all authentications are based on first-hand experience.
