George Harrison - Personally Owned Sterling Jewelry
George Harrison - Personally Owned Sterling Jewelry. An exceedingly rare personal artifact which was formerly the possession of the late George Harrison, this unique pin features a star insignia with the name Ring O Records (Ringo Starr's record company). While It is likely that Harrison originally received the pin from Ringo, the piece has an interesting history: on a trip to California, Harrison met with the owner and publisher of Cashbox, the leading industry publication of its time. During this meeting, Harrison presented the owner with this pin as a gift. This meeting was documented in photographs, which are included with this lot. One photograph shows Harrison affixing the pin to the Cashbox owner's lapel. A second photograph of shows the two posing together. This rare artifact remained in the possession of the owner until 2003, when a large number of important Cashbox relics were publicly auctioned by the publisher. The jewelry has remained in a private collection since the auction, and is offered here for the first time since being obtained from Cashbox magazine. A letter of authenticity is included with this lot. Cataloged and guaranteed by Startifacts. Important notice: Heritage usually auctions material at the rate of 200-250 lots per hour. On some occasions eBay Live bid software or the Internet may not be able to keep up with the pace of the auction. We recommend placing a realistic absentee bid now as insurance to avoid disappointment. Occasionally the auctioneer may eliminate or reject an eBay Live bid, and the auctioneer may also reopen a lot after the close of the eBay live bidding (usually because we missed an audience bid), and may reject your bid even if it shows you as the winning bidder. By bidding via eBay Live, you agree that Heritage may award the lot to another bidder at its sole discretion under the circumstances described above or any other reasonable circumstances. Also please note that all Heritage lots purchased through eBay Live carry a 20% Buyer's Premium. Please make sure you read the Terms and Conditions before you bid.
