Sale Description
We are honored to have in our hands a limited edition lithograph by John LENNON, titled POWER TO THE PEOPLE. There were originally 5 different lithographs by John LENNON in an estate sale in Austin, and we are now down to one. We felt the best way to find the right buyer would be through an online auction sale.
To own a piece of John Lennon is a great investment in history.
John Winston Ono Lennon MBE (9 October 1940 ““ 8 December 1980) was an English singer, songwriter, and peace activist who co-founded the BEATLES, the most commercially successful band in the history of popular music. He and fellow member, Paul McCartney, formed a much-celebrate songwriting partnership. Along with George Harrison and Ring Starr, the group would ascend to worldwide fame during the 1960s.
He was born as John Winston Lennon in Liverpool, where he became involved in the skiffle craze as a teenager. In 1957, he formed his first band, the Quarrymen, which evolved into the Beatles in 1960. Lennon began to record as a solo artist before the barnd's break up in April 1970. After he married Yoko Ono in 1969, he added "Ono" as one of his middle names. Lennon disengaged himself from the music business in 1975 to raise his infant son Sean, but re-emerged with Ono in 1980 with the album Double Fantasy. He was shot and killed in the archway of his Manhattan apartment building three weeks after the album was released.
Lennon revealed a rebellious nature and acerbic wit in his music, writing, drawings, on film and in interviews. Controversial through his political and peace activism, he moved from London to Manhattan in 1971, where his criticism of the Vietnam WAr resulted in a lengthy attempt by the Nixon administration to deport him. Some of his songs were adopted as anthems by the anti-war movement and the larger counterculture.
By 2012, Lennon's solo album sales in the United States had exceeded 14 million units. He had 25 number-one singles on the US Billboard Hot 100 chart as a writer, co-writer, or performer. In 2002, Lennon was voted eighth in a BBC poll of the 100 Greatest Brions and in 2008, Rolling Stone ranked him the fifth-greatest singer of all time. In 1987, he was posthumously inducted into the Songwriters Hall of Fame. Lennon was twice posthumously inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame: first in 1988 as a member of the Beatles and again in 1994 as a solo artist.
