In Concert 1952 Program Count Basie George Shearing W/Billy Eckstine’s Autograph

Description: Up for sale is this program for a concert featuring Count Basie, George Shearing & Billy Eckstine. On the inside back cover is an autograph signed by Billy Eckstine himself. This also comes with the ticket stub for the concert at the Minneapolis Auditorium on Saturday, October 25 1952. It is 24 pages with the covers. The program features a brief life story of each of the three concert go-ers. It is a saddle stitched program with 2 staples. They are both nice and secure. I would consider this publication to be in very good to excellent condition. There is some light discoloration on the page edges. There are no page tears. Also, no ink, pencil or any other stains with the exception of a slight yellowing on the outside of the first three pages. The spot is about 1 in. x 1/2 in. There is a crease on the back cover. However, the crease is not rigid. Eckstine’s autograph is on the inside back cover. This will add to the everlasting value because the cover is at least twice as thick as the rest of the pages. This autograph has not been authenticated. However, it’s quite apparent this is the real deal. It matches up with other Eckstine signatures and there’s the ticket stub and the program. Would be too many coincidences’. All pages in the entire program are in the photos.
