I'd like to see a picture of the box and the certificate.

 

I live in Miami area and wonder how a CBG signed by Fidel would go over in Little Havana.

Hi Hal,

 

What's your email address? I'll scan in the certificate and send a picture tomorrow. 

 

I've been to Miami and Cuba - loved the music and culture, amazing places!

 

thanks,

 

Christine

Thanks Christine, but I was being a bit tongue-in-cheek.  I fear a Fidel-signed CBG down here would be treated Roger Daltry-style: smashed to bits

I am curious though, how much are you asking for it?

Bearing it mind it's going to at least double in value when he passes away (I paid 5k for it 2 years ago) I'm asking for £7k now.  I'm happy to hang onto it until the right time, but if I get a good offer in the meantime I could be tempted :)

uh, that's $11,250 US.

Might need to put more than a $2 piezo in it!
