Part of A-List Celebrity & Icons Memorabilia Auction (timed auction by GWS Auctions)

Starting at $1.00

Status: Sold

Est. $10,000-$12,000 "The Beach Boys" Dennis & Brian Wilson (Brothers) NEVER BEFORE SEEN (3) Photo Slides from the 1977 (One in Concert) in Envelope W/Milton Love's Typed Notes on It - These three slides are from the estate of Milton Love, and were discovered in a drawer of a dresser that was purchased at an estate sale. These photos have never been released or seen by anyone outside of the Love/Wilson families. Milton Love is the father of one of the most famous Beach Boys, Mike Love (AKA Dr. Love). Two of the slides are never before released photos of Dennis Wilson and Brian Wilson (brothers) relaxing together (as stated on the envelope by Milton Love) in Miami. One slide is concert shot taken from side-stage in the 1970's, and has never been released. It is a magnificent portrayal of the brothers in the beginning stages of their success. We will not be showing photographs of the slides to maintain their value as "Unreleased Photos". These items were never meant for release, as the family always assumed that someone had cleaned out the drawers of the dresser prior to selling it. The Beach Boys are America's biggest band, and are rock n' roll legends. This is a once in a lifetime opportunity to own a legendary piece of iconic history that no one else has ever seen, and was thought to be lost forever. We have only photographed the envelopes with the slide(s) inside, as the new buyer will be the owner of the photograph and will have the choice to release it, or not. There has never been anything like this offered at auction. We have personally spoken with a representative for The Beach Boys, and they confirmed that this is part of the "Milton Love Lost Collection." All photo negatives are available for private viewing (by appointment only), you may schedule an appointment by emailing: Brigitte@gwsauctions.com. All previews will require a signed "Non-Disclosure" prior to viewing.
