Description

Lennon’s 1974 Christmas card, with provenance from May Pang

Rare Christmas card that Lennon and May Pang sent to their friends in 1974, 7.5 x 5.5, signed on the front in black ink, “Love, John” and “May.” The unusual image shows Lennon emerging from under a transvestite’s dress, taken by May Pang during a photoshoot which can be seen in the Imagine documentary. In fine condition. Accompanied by an ALS by Pang, one page, September 2011, in full: “This is a handsigned 1974 Christmas card that John Lennon & I signed and sent out to our friends. I took the photograph and I still own it to this day.” With impeccable provenance from Lennon’s one-time girlfriend herself, this is a magnificent piece from Lennon’s post-Beatles years. Pre-certified Roger Epperson/REAL and RR Auction COA.
