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 when came across 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. ON this piece she writes in vintage fountain pen, "Tuesday April 11, 1950. Time 9:20 pm (Lilys Birthday) 8:15 Show" . .
