Bruce Springsteen has signed this postcard from the famed Stork Club in New York City in blue pen. This signed postcard was obtained by a dinner guest at the club on a magical night late in 1979 when she had the incredible luck of having dinner at the Stork Club with The Who, who were staying at the Hotel Navarro in New York City, their home base when they were on tour. They would stay at the hotel, which was next door to the Stork Club, (you could get to the Stork Club through a passageway in the hotel), then fly out to their nearby concerts from there. The evening was already extremely special when Bruce Springsteen came by their table, a beer in each pocket, and sat down with them! Bruce signed this postcard for this individual at the table and it has been in her possession since that time up to the time of this auction. This evening also bears historical significance since it was just before the Who's infamous concert in Cincinnati where the tragic stampede took place. The companion of the person who received the signature spent time with the band before and after the stampede and vividly remembers their anguish at what happened. The signed postcard bears some wear on the front, with creasing on both sides, overall good condition with a strong signature. Comes with a letter of provenance from the individual who was there that night and obtained the signed post card and a Gotta Have Rock & Roll Letter of Authenticity.
