Peter, I just now saw your post of Gerry and the 12 (must've missed it before--sorry)

As you can see, the TRC seems to be intact, and the end of the headstock looks so as well, I'll venture a guess that it may have been shortened a bit if at all.

Anyway, it's a great story and judging form it, Gerry must be quite a schmoozer!

Wow, Mike, I'd love to see it full-sized!

Paul: Not to take away from the focus on Gerry but the TRC is butchered and the keywinds look too close to the top of the headstock to me.

"It's Gonna Be Alright" was his philosophy for sure.
Life, as with music, often requires one to let go of the melody and listen to the rhythm

Paul - Can do. The photo or business card? I think Gerry is playing a futurama. Geez could that photo be 1962 or earlier? I've got a sheet of signatures of the Pacemakers also. I collect signed items of 60s British Invasion.

Mike, I love that early photo! I have a '58 Grazioso similar to what he is holding. If you don't mind could you send me a larger pic for my file? Thanks a million. Ron

Looks like a Futurama to me too, but my eyes are failing...just ask Peter! Anyway, can you detect any headstock damage on the Futurama?

Blowups of all and the sigs, too, if you pleeze, M!!

Wow! I just realized that I should have received it by now. Mike will you verify it was sent to my comcast.net address. Thanks

Ron & Paul - Sorry. The emails were not sent yesterday. They got caught up in my outbox. Re-sent them and you should have the pix by now.
