Description

Lennon signs The Penguin for his sound engineer, adding a self caricature

Signed book: The Penguin. Middlesex, England: Penguin, 1969. Paperback, 5 x 7.75, 156 pages. Signed and inscribed in blue ballpoint on the second free end page, making it look like the printed creature is speaking: “To Lori (and him) with love, John ‘71.” Lennon adds a nice little self-caricature after his signature as well. Book was signed for engineer Roy Cicala, who worked with Lennon and Yoko Ono, and comes from his personal collection, as well as a letter of authenticity. In very good condition, with light water staining along top of signed page, affecting a couple words of inscription, wear and creasing to covers. COA Roger Epperson/PSA/DNA and R&R COA.
