A double-sided page from Gram Parsons’ personal scrapbook with original photos of a young Gram with his family and early band members, one side of which is reproduced in the booklet from the album Gram Parsons: The Early Years. 

As noted in the accompanying letter of authenticity from John Delgatto of Sierra Records, This letter is to authenticate a page from Gram Parsons’ mid-60s scrapbook.  I obtained this from the late Paul Surrat, a member of Parsons’ mid-60’s folk group, The Shilos.  Paul had previously obtained it from Gram Parsons’ now-deceased sister, Avis Parsons.  In 1979 my label, Sierra Records, released ‘Gram Parsons-The Early Years,’ an album of tracks by Parsons and The Shilos.  One year earlier, I purchased this and a number of other Parsons-related items from Surrat, for possible inclusion in the package.

The page with the article on the left edge is reproduced in full in the booklet accompanying Gram Parsons: The Early Years. , as pictured here (booklet pictured for reference only and not included).

8 1/2″ x 11″ in very good condition.

An extraordinary Gram Parsons collectible, with Delgatto’s letter of authenticity, and Recordmecca’s written lifetime guarantee.
