Album cover opens to 12”X24” depicting a color spread of the original four members of The Doors sitting in the Hard Rock Cafe, at the bar with Morrison having a bottle of beer. Inscribed by each member offering very good contrast. “To Danny John Densmore.” “Danny Boy Robbie Krieger”, “Cheers Dan J. Morrison, The Doors” and ‘’To Danny Ray Manzarek”. The story that was told with this album is that “Danny” was Danny Sugarman, the President of The Doors Fan Club (1968-1971) and their second manager. Sugarman sold this album in 1982 to our source. This album was on display in Sugarman’s office for about 10 years. Sugarman was also Iggy Pop’s manager and they both ended up in a mental hospital suffering from drug and alcohol addiction. Sugarman idolized Morrison even having the same haircut and wearing similar clothing. Signatures of all four of The Doors on one piece is of extreme rarity. All four signatures on this named album may be one of a kind. Record not included, light wear to some portion of the very edges of the cover.................$12,500.00
