Description: OFFERED FOR YOUR CONSIDERATION: A beautiful porcelain plate produced and issued by the Gartlan USA, Inc. in 1996 to commemorate the illustrious career of Beatles drummer RINGO STARR! This plate, produced in a worldwide edition of only 1000, has been hand-signed in a gold paint pen by Ringo himself on the right-hand side atop a stunning Michael J. Taylor painted illustration depicting FOUR stages of the legendary drummer's career. The reverse side of the plate features text related to Ringo's career as well as the number of this particular plate: Number #707 of 1000. The plate measures approximately 10-3/16 inches in diameter and is in pristine condition. The plate was purchased directly from the artist, Michael J. Taylor at the Chicago Beatlefest (now known as "the Fest foe Beatles Fans") in August 1996. As a special bonus, the artist embellished the back of the plate with a one-of-a-kind illustration of Ringo's Ludwig drum set as well as an "Apple", which Taylor dated "Beatlefest 1996." He has additionally signed the back of the plate, making it extra special as Gartlan didn't require that he sign the ORIGINAL CAST offering of this plate! When you bought the signed plate, Taylor, who made a special appearance that day, would embellish it on the spot with an original custom illustration. I chose Ringo's drum set which the artist promptly drew with a number of colored pens. He additionally drew an apple, dated and signed it! Few of the plates you see offered feature this additional artwork by Taylor the artist making this one special indeed and you'll only find Taylor's embellishments on plates associated with in-person promotions like the 1996 Fest. GUARANTEED TO PASS PSA AUTHENTICATIONS BUT HAS NO COA OR BOX. The Plate Holder and ORIGINAL 60'S RINGO BUTTON ARE INCLUDED WITH THE PURCHASE! PACKED CAREFULLY and mailed from a smoke-free home with 100% feedback over 20 years with eBay. Please see my other items and thank you for looking. .
