Description
This is a rare chance to secure a true gem from Bowie's ascendancy as Ziggy Stardust and Aladdin Sane. This is a brilliant album that has been autographed by Bowie and the Spiders from Mars including Mike Garson. Great choice of album for autographs as well... all of the signatures are clear and legible on the white background! Bowie has autographed the inside cover at his feet while all of the Spiders have autographed the back cover with greetings for a fan named Mike.
Details:
Artist: David Bowie
Album: Aladdin Sane
Label: RCA RS 1001
Disc: 1LP Orange label
Country: England
Sleeve condition: In addition to the autographs the gatefold sleeve is in very good to excellent condition. There are slight corner creases but on the whole it is very nice indeed! No seam splits, no sticker marks, no tears. This album is the stuff of history!!!
The album comes with the lyric inner sleeve and a fan club application form. The fan club application is intact although creased.
Vinyl condition. Very good to excellent. The label and the vinyl look beautiful. A conservative grading. I personally never actually played this album after purchase. The vinyl album is housed in a high quality inner sleeve.
The album has been stored by myself in a click seal plastic sleeve in a vertical position in a closed cabinet.
I purchased this album from Craig and Mark at the Record Peddler in Manchester during the 1980s. Craig used to sell some incredible Bowie items there. Craig and I saw Bowie together on nine separate occasions. I visited Manchester during August 1984. It was obviously sold to Craig and Mark by a fan called Mike. I cannot provide a certificate of authentication however this is quite a genuine article. I met Trevor Bolder when he toured Australia with Uriah Heep and he autographed his photograph for me and it matches the one on this sleeve.
Why sell such an incredible item? I am selling this record in order to fund the replacement of some Bowie singles that were affected by heat during house moving. I will be selling some other rare and unusual Bowie items as well in the near future. I always thought this item was great but my name is not Mike so I also felt a little weird about owning an album where the Spiders have all written something nice to a fan named Mike. I thought about changing my name at one stage but that is even weirder. If you are a Bowie fan and named Mike you could not do wrong bidding on this record! Where are you Mike?! I hope that this special album finds a good home surrounded by other much loved items of rock memorabilia such as Bowie's Ziggy Stardust masterpiece or the groundbreaking Hunky Dory album!
