DUKE ELLINGTON
2/22/1972
1 page concert contract & correspondence
Rare piece of jazz history!
You are bidding on a 1 page concert contract and correspondence sent out by the Duke Ellington organization. This particular document references the Duke Ellington concert that was scheduled for February 22, 1972 in Corvallis, Oregon.
The contract is the white copy and has original signatures in black ink. The signatures are of the employer and a representative of Duke Ellington.
There has been no attempt to authenticate these signatures and are not guaranteed to be authentic.
I am NOT an autograph collector or expert and encourage buyers to research these signatures on their own.
Most artist give their managers/agents power of attorney to sign contracts and generally are not involved in the union/paperwork operations. As such, I am pricing these contracts accordingly and assuming they are not signed by the actual artist.
