I just picked this up from member John William.  I want to especially thank John William for his patience as I dealt with a PayPal issue.  

It’s a sheet of paper signed in December 1981 at Madison Square Garden by all band members:  Angus Young, Malcolm Young, Brian Johnson, Cliff Williams, and Phil Rudd.  To me, this is what autograph collecting is all about.  This isn’t some shiny, flawless mass-produced autograph item from a pre-arranged signing (I have those too).  This is a living, breathing piece of AC/DC history obtained by a fan on the fly at an actual AC/DC concert in perhaps America’s most famous venue Madison Square Garden in New York City just a little more than a year after Brian Johnson joined the band after the tragic passing of Bon Scott.

This is the group that was responsible for the greatest hard rock album ever produced, Back in Black!

It’s the real definition of an autograph...where a fan is able to get close enough to the band to get their autographs using the only thing he has available...in this case, a piece of paper.  Forget those pristine items from the pre-arranged signings (although I buy those too)...this has history and character!  In my eyes, it’s a beauty.

Thanks John.
