N.W.A Fully Signed Slip With Eazy-E (PSA/DNA).
Offered here is a signed slip by NWA, dating back to 1988 shortly before the debut of “Straight Outta Compton". The slip features signatures from Eazy-E, Dr. Dre, DJ Yella, and Ice Cube.
Provenance: The signatures were obtained by Tony Smith, a former Magic Mountain employee who worked at the carnival basketball stand. According to Tony, he hit it off with the four members while they were playing the game, as he was feeding them free basketballs, knowing them from the LA rap scene. As a token of appreciation, the band offered to sign the slip for him, also mentioning that they were about to become really famous.
The slip includes the very rare signature of Eazy-E, who passed away in 1995. Eazy-E hand wrote the inscription: “TO: TONY / NICE MEETING YOU STAY COOL HOMEBOY / ‘EAZY-E' / N.W.A." Additionally, Ice Cube inscribed, “TO: TONY / STAY UP / ICE CUBE / N.W.A." DJ Yella and Dr. Dre also signed the slip. The verso of the slip has numbers on it, indicating it was used in the basketball game.
Good to fair condition.
Authentication: PSA/DNA Letter of Authenticity and a Gotta Have Rock and Roll Certificate of Authenticity.
