Description

Two scarce pieces of 'Sexy MF' ephemera: a black card featuring Prince's symbol in gold and his pre-printed facsimile signature inside, encouraging the recipient to "Keep on Shakin' that Ass!," dated June 7, [1992], with its original envelope; and an 'Aunt Esther' paddle fan, with Paisley Park Studios label on the reverse. In fine condition.

Prince's former co-manager Jill Willis recalls: "Just as 'Gett Off' was his birthday release promotion in 1991, 'Sexy MF' was the same in 1992. Although he went on to stop celebrating his birthdays, during the years I worked with him, he was always up for a party or an 'event' like releasing a single on his birthday. The Aunt Esther paddle fans are apparently quite rare now but seemed to be everywhere around Paisley Park at one time."

The Prince Estate is not affiliated, associated, or connected with RR Auction or this auction, nor has it endorsed, authenticated or sponsored the items available for auction. Further, The Prince Estate has not licensed any of its intellectual property to RR Auction.




From the personal collection of Jill Willis (former Executive Vice-president of Paisley Park).
