Has JSA and REAL LOA's. Cleanest copy I've ever seen if this is authentic. Looks perfect. What are the expert's opinions?

Absolutely genuine from a documented signing session.

Incredible qualities. Stunning. That green. Pens. Execution. Condition. Provenance. All.

Will probably sell for at least 10 grand plus their 27% commission. (Probably has a reserve as well)

With three COAs you would hope it is genuine.

Is that a typical Freddie autograph from 1975? Somehow it looks later to me but I'm certainly not qualified to judge.

Does anyone have images of other examples of the LP signed the same day? There should be a few knocking about.

Yeah there are a few. It's a little more rushed than some others, but it's typical for 75/early 76. 

There was another ANATO signing session that was held without Brian on another date. He was out with hepatitis if memory serves. Nice items, but the fully signed pieces are prime, though.

Thanks Innuendo. I think I prefer the ones you posted. There is at least some personalization.

Yes, my signed ANATO album comes from the other ANATO signing session when Brian was sick and not there. My album was signed by everyone but Brian at that signing. Many years later I finally was able to get Brian to sign while on tour in Canada in 2023 to complete my ANATO album!

Right, I remeber. Very cool. I remember being asked how one would would go about competing the album and advising them against sending it to Brian through the mail lol. You had later updated me when you got it signed. Very nice indeed. All the best
