Beach Boys SIGNED Smile/Friends Carl Wilson VERY RARE Greeting. Brian,Mike,Bruce

Description: THE BEACH BOYS Friends & Smiley Smile 1974 2x LP Brother Reprise 2MS 2167. 1st edition. This a very RARE and UNIQUE autographed copy of the original pressing of Friend/Smiley Smile album.This album has a paragraph long AUTHENTIC greeting written by Carl Wilson to a friend during/immediately after the release of this album ! It was written by Carl to a friend/acquaintance named " Glenn " It reads " Thank you so much for your great job in finding this beautiful environment to be in..... Carl Wilson The Beach Boys " This is just so amazing to have Carl Wilson write this on anything, especially a Beach Boys album. It is written very clean, clear and in blue bold ball point pen. One can not underestimate the RARITY of having the Great Carl Wilson write a paragraph on thanks on an original copy lp. I obtained the rest of the Beach Boys autographs in later years at various times in Los Angeles/San Diego. It is signed by Bruce Johnston ( in one of the best signatures I have seen of his ), Mike Love , Al Jardine and Brian Wilson ( who unfortunately was rushed when signing this lp and only has a " B " and a line after it that runs into Al Jardine's signature a bit ) ) I guess with the way Brian has been signing his name recently, this is not so bad at all :) Each Beach Boy member other than Carl signed in a bold blue sharpie pen. The lp itself was obtained from a buddy of mine who had some connections to the recording studio where this lp was mixed. The Carl Wilson greeting is 100% authentic as any true Beach Boy fan can see and is 100% guaranteed to be genuine if checked by any reputable 3rd party authentication service. The cover of the this lp is in G or G- condition. It is over 30 years old and wear has developed on the edges, seam splitting. The rest of the cover is actually in very okay condition, considering. I have not listened to the vinyl since this album was from my personal collection. I did show a scan for visual inspection. It comes from a pet and smoke free home. I am a long time Beach Boys fan and collector and have many items signed by them. I just felt it was time for this album to go to someone else who also can appreciate it as I have from almost 15 years. Multiple scans are included to give the best view of everything described of this amazing album. I have adjusted the price a bit considering the quality of the cover and the rushed signature from Brian , however this is still one of the most unique items a fan can ever obtain from The Beach Boys.The autographs on this album are 100% guaranteed to pass and reputable 3rd party authentication service. Period. If there are any questions please do not hesitate to ask. Thank you.
