ANNOUNCES:
THE SALE OF THE MOST IMPORTANT PIECE OF HISTORIC ROCK MEMORABILIA EVER:
The Album Signed by John
Lennon for Mark Chapman
(Five hours before Lennon's death)
| Moments in
Time' s President, Gary Zimet, has announced that the record album
Double Fantasy by John
Winston Lennon autographed for Mark David Chapman prior to Chapman's
assassination of the legendary Beatle is being offered for sale once again. The album,
originally acquired by the gentleman who found
it in the front gate flower planter outside the Dakota, home of the late John
Lennon in 1980 was made famous when pictures of Lennon signing the album for
Chapman appeared in the newspapers and on TV stations around the world.
A Beatle fan all of his life, this gentleman wrestled for 19 years before
coming to the decision to sell the album. The album was sold to a private
buyer in 1999 by Moments In Time Inc and is now being offered once again
exclusively here. The album bears the signature of
John Lennon and is dated 1980. The cover and dust jacket contain forensically
enhanced fingerprints of Chapman. This piece of crucial evidence against
Chapman was turned into police and then returned to the owner with a letter of
extreme gratitude from the District Attorney. "We are very excited to bring such a historically significant piece to the
market", said Bob Zafian, spokesman for Moments in Time and agent for the
seller. "I have never come across a piece with such provenance; police
reports, fingerprint documentation, letters from the District Attorney, it goes
on and on".
