B45751 – Queen 1982 Autographed Hot Space Tour Programme Leeds (UK)

A concert programme from the UK leg of Queen’s 1982 Hot Space tour autographed on the first inside page by Queen in blue ballpoint pen. The signature of Brian May is much clearer than appears on the image. The signatures were obtained on 29th May 1982 at the Hilton Hotel, Leeds the day after the group had performed at Elland Road Football Stadium.
Provenance: accompanied by a letter from the original recipient that reads ‘Back In 1982 I was fortunate enough to go to Elland Road football ground in Leeds to see Queen live.
My fiancé at the time was the granddaughter of a chap called Sam Bolton who used to be chairman of Leeds United and latter chairman of the F.A. When he passed her grandmother and mother became shareholders in LUFC. Consequently, they were given tickets for the gig which were in the directors’ box!! We were all given a programme which I didn’t realise until I got home were signed!!!!
So, I put it on a shelf with all the other programmes I had and there it sat for 40 plus years. I’m getting a bit past it now and it’s time to let someone else have its safekeeping’.
The programme measures 24.25cm x 33.5cm (9.5 inches x 23.2 inches). The condition excellent.
