Description: Vintage, original signature of FRANK SINATRA in pencil on small address book page. Second address book page features signatures of TOMMY DORSEY, CONNIE HAINES and BRUCE SNYDER. Signatures are in pencil but bold and crisp - including the unmistakable, genuine Frank Sinatra signature from the early 1940s when he was a singing with the Tommy Dorsey Band! Pages measure approximately 2 1/2" x 3 3/4". The back of the page signed by Dorsey, Haines, and Snyder includes a handwritten note (likely by the person who obtained the signatures). Clearly, Sinatra was not yet the mega-star he would soon become because the note reads, "These are the autographs of Tommy Dorsey, His songstress Miss Connie Haines and two of the orchestra boys." Watermark "ebay" does not appear on the actual item.
