One of the most creative writers of the 60's & 70's, Hunter S. Thompson's popularity goes without saying. Being a loose-cannon, Hunter was always a tough autograph during his years of fame, but this offering takes rarity to a new level! Offered here is a hardcover "Fear And Loathing In Las Vegas, And Other American Stories" book signed on title page by Hunter S. Thompson and illustrator Ralph Steadman, and signed on the cover in black felt tip marker by Johnny Depp, who played Thompson in the biopic of the same name as the book. All signatures were obtained in-person, with Thompson's autograph acquired October 18, 2004 at a book signing at Book Soup in Hollywood; Ralph Steadman acquired October 31, 2006, also at Book Soup; and finally by Johnny Depp on May 8, 2012 at the "Dark Shadows" premiere in Hollywood. Accompanied by a full Letter of Authenticity from Beckett Authentication Services (BAS).
