Frank Sinatra
Autographed Vintage Menu from Paramount Hotel

From the “Phyllis” Collection. Here is a menu signed in the cover’s upper left corner “For Phyllis Frank Sinatra”. Menu is from the French Casino in the Hotel Paramount NY City where Mr Sinatra has a dressing room on the 15^th floor. Phyllis has documented this on the back of the menu where she also notes the date and time “Monday Dec 1, 1952, Time 10:40 PM outer lobby of Hotel Paramount right next to the casino – Frank’s dressing room is on the 15^th floor of this hotel”.

Recently discovered an estate auction of vintage Frank Sinatra memorabilia including several autographed items including rare books, concert programs and menus. What made this find so extraordinary is that the autographs were Genuine. Now that may not sound unusual. However, genuine signatures of Frank Sinatra are quite rare as the majority of his autographs on the market were signed by a secretary or are outright forgeries. It is estimated as much as 90-95% of Mr. Sinatra's autographs are Not genuine.. So upon examining this collection, it was quite amazing. Come to find out this piece (and all pieces from this collection) was acquired In Person. Phyllis was the President of the Frank Sinatra Fan Club in the late 40s to early-mid 50s

See above photo of Mr Sinatra & Phyllis, along with an image of an original 1948 Frank Sinatra Fan Club membership card in which Phyllis signs as the club's President.

What also makes these signed Sinatra pieces so extraordinary is the provenance that most of them come with in the form of the documented experience written on each piece. For this piece she writes “Tuesday June 22, 1954 about 1”20 AM at Sands stage door”.
