Beatles Signed Star-Club Ticket
Super early Star Club, Hamburg Rock n' Twist-Zentrale entry ticket, 3.5 x 2.25, signed on the reverse in fountain pen during their last stint at the club, "The Beatles, Paul McCartney," "Ringo Starr," "John Lennon," and "George Harrison." These were signed for Clint Riven, guitarist for The Wags, during the Beatles' final Hamburg residency from December 18–31, 1962. In very good to fine condition, with overall bleeding to the signatures, creasing, and paper loss to edges. Accompanied by a certificate of authenticity from Tracks and a letter of provenance from the daughter of the original recipient, in full: "In the 1960s Nis-Uwe Westphal aka Clint Raven (16.05.1943 – 13.05.2014) met The Beatles at the Star Club a couple of times performing alongside as a member of the Wags. He always told me that within the group John Lennon has the most absurd kind of humour running around adorned with a toilet seat around his neck. My father liked the way the Beatles represented the spirit of that time not answering the question journalists in a kind and thankful manner anymore. Clint has always been a devoted guitarist and singer holding up the spirit and music of the 60s."
