SCARCE Queen Complete Group Signed Debut Album - 44 Years in the Making!Queen’s 1973 debut album signed on the front cover in in felt pen “Freddie Mercury,"“Roger Taylor,” and “John Deacon,” signed in the era of the release, completed with a contemporary blue felt tip autograph from Brian May. Creases to edges and corners, mild ring of wear to front cover (typical of LPs of the age), and scattered surface marks, otherwise fine condition. The record is included.
Equally impressive as the signed album itself is the dedication and genesis of how it was signed. In 1975 this album was initially signed by Freddie, Roger and John at a record store signing in NYC. As fate would have it, Brian was sick the day of the signing and did not attend. After being signed by the three, this album sat dormant for 44 years until earlier this year when Brian completed it before attending the Global Citizens Festival in New York City. Amazing! Fully band signed albums during this early period in the band’s history are extremely scarce. Accompanied by a full Letter of Authenticity from Beckett Authentication Services (BAS).
