Color glossy 3.5 x 3.5 candid photo of Lennon walking outdoors, signed upside down in black ballpoint. In fine condition, with small vertical crease along Lennon’s sideburn, and some light skipping to first name of signature. Photo is stamp dated on the reverse, June 1974, by Kodak. Accompanied by a letter of authenticity from noted Beatles expert Frank Caiazzo, stating “This signature also dates from 1974, shortly after the shot was taken.
Dating to his “Lost Weekend,” the former Beatle was in New York at the time with his companion May Pang to record the solo album, Walls and Bridges. This is an excellent example from the time period, remarkably very neat and very complete. Lennon signatures from the mid 1970s are becoming increasingly difficult to find and are extremely desirable.” Pre-certified Roger Epperson/REAL and RRAuction COA.
