George Martin Signed 14x16 Custom Framed Photo (JSA COA)

Frame measures 14" x 16" in size and features a photo that has been hand-signed in black felt-tip pen by George Martin (Record Producer, D.2016). 

George Martin EMI record producer was the first person to sign The Beatles to a major label. In the late 1950s, Martin began to supplement his producer income by publishing music and having his artists record it. Within the recording industry, Martin was known for having become independent at a time when many producers were still salaried. In 1965, the Beatles' success gave Martin the leverage to start Associated Independent Recording (AIR), which enabled him to hire out his services to other artists. AIR demonstrated how important Martin's talents were to his artists, and it allowed him a share in record royalties on his hits. To this day, AIR remains one of the world's pre-eminent recording studios. In 1979, Martin opened a studio on the Caribbean island of Montserrat. This studio was destroyed by Hurricane Hugo ten years later.

The autograph includes an official James Spence Authentication (JSA) hologram and matching COA for authenticity purposes.
