FULL LETTER of AUTHENTICITY from JSA #XX62162
Original signature of FRANK SINATRA in ballpoint pen ink on the back of a
Sands Hotel and Casino postcard from Las Vegas! Postcard measures 5 ½” x 3 ½” and presents
very well. Autograph is bold and crisp - an unmistakable Frank
Sinatra signature from September 1960! A note was found in the frame this
postcard was originally displayed – likely written by the person who originally
obtained the autograph, indicating, “Frank Sinatra’s signature on back at the
Sands in Las Vegas on our honeymoon – 9/1960.”
So, what was going on in Las Vegas in September 1960? Frank’s daughter,
Nancy, married Tommy Sands at the Sands hotel on September 11, 1960. Frank
Sinatra was a consistent performer at the Sands, along with some guest
appearances of other Rat Pack members, while in the last few months of campaigning
for John F. Kennedy! The Sands hotel was featured in the 1960 movie, “Oceans
Eleven” and is the scene of Sinatra and Rat Pack legendary fun and
entertainment.
See scans of front and back of postcard for overall condition.
Watermark "ebay" does not appear on the actual
item.
Here is your opportunity to own a vintage Frank Sinatra
signature – an authentic autograph from the prime of his career from the Sands Hotel
and Casino in Las Vegas. Vintage, authentic Sinatra signatures are very rare!
This is a must-have piece for the serious Sinatra collector pegged to a
specific time and place during Frank’s legendary career. Also, a unique
opportunity to own a vintage Sinatra signature from his hey day with the Rat
Pack and JFK.
A terrific investment - the signature of a legend. Many people
try to sell Sinatra signatures – some authentic, but must not authentic. Do
your research before you buy a Sinatra signature. Rule of thumb – if the price
is too good to be true, it probably is. Consult with industry experts like
third party authenticators if you are unsure or have doubts.
Sinatra was a willing autograph signer throughout his career (60+ years),
however many forgeries and secretarial signatures exist in the market today. It
is widely known that Sinatra utilized secretaries to deal with his mail
correspondence, including autograph requests, as far back as 1939-1940. Many
(some would argue MOST) of the Sinatra signatures you see for sale in the
market today are classic examples of secretarial signatures from the 1970's -
1990's or outright forgeries. Do not take on the risk of buying a Sinatra
signature that you do not have confidence in. Look for signatures that have
credible background and provenance.
