Description

Lennon signs in Philly at the WFIL Helping Hands Marathon

Ballpoint signature, “John Lennon,” on an off-white 5.5 x 3.5 sheet of stationery imprinted with the name of a Willow Grove, Pennsylvania, optician. Collector’s notation along bottom reads “John Lennon’s autograph / WFIL marathon May 16, 1975.” In very good condition, with intersecting folds, one through a single letter of signature, scattered light toning and soiling, and tape to edges. In May 1975, Lennon, who hadn’t made public appearances in years, traveled from New York to Philadelphia to help out with the charity radiothon, spending hours on the air, answering phones, signing autographs, and personally meeting nearly 2,000 fans who flocked to see him. Pre-certified Roger Epperson/REAL and RRAuction COA.
