John Lennon: A completed 'Valentine Awards 1969' polling form for 'Disc And Music Echo',

1969,
filled in by John in black ink, giving his address as 3 Savile Row, W.1. London and age as 28, putting himself, Yoko or The Beatles as nominees for many of the categories, including Top Boy Singer (World) John Lennon; Best 1968 LP (World) The Beatles; Top TV Show Magical Mystery Tour; Best 1968 Single (World) Hey Jude; and Miss Valentine 1969 Yoko Ono, mounted and framed, approx. 11in x 11 3/4in (28cm x 30cm), overall 18in x 17 1/2in (46cm x 44.5cm)

Footnotes

The tongue-in-cheek 'nominees' in this polling form are typical of John's humour. He clearly enjoyed completing questionnaires in a similar vein and several of those that exist have appeared at various auctions over the years.

Provenance:
Ex-lot 665, 'Rock 'n' Roll & Film Memorabilia', Sotheby's London, 14th September 1995.
