Backstory of the autograph. In 1965, my friend worked for a photography studio in Buena Park, CA run by a Mrs. Waring, the sister of Eric Easton who was one of the Stones' managers at the time. She brought the book backstage at a 1965 concert in San Bernardino, CA to see her brother and have him give the book to Charlie to sign, which he did.
If you have any questions, please ask. Thanks for looking and good luck bidding!
