“Senator Javits, I’d like to introduce Mick Jagger and Bianca Jagger.” “Oh yeah, and they have a check for you for $350,000.”
A rare and fascinating as well as historical lot of Mick Jagger items from the early 70′s. Mick Jagger and his new bride Bianca traveled to New York to present Senator Jacob Javits of New York, a sizable check for $350,000 to aid the Nicaraguan Earthquake victims, of which Bianca’s family were some.
Here is an autograph signed by both Mick and Bianca on a US Senate notepad, as well as original news clippings from the meeting of the two.
In 1973, The Stones gave a benefit concert in LA to help to raise money. the ticket stub shown is from that show.The watch pictured was later donated by Jagger to LA radio station KMET-FM, who ran a week long auction to raise additional money for the victims.
The watch was a gift from Atlantic Records President Ahmet Ertegun, to Jagger right about the time the Stones signed the deal with Atlantic.
THANKS TO GARY ROCKS.
