The release also earned Lauper two Grammy awards and by 1997 had reached RIAA certified 6x Multi-Platinum status.* Includes MusicGoldmine.com Letter Of Authenticity Item Highlights: Detailed Item Description: This is a colorful and unique record label award that would have been manufactured in 1984, making it approximately 42 years old. The note on the presentation plate pokes fun at the usual messages, saying: "Thanks! You couldn't have done it without me!" with a printed Cyndi Lauper autograph. It is presented to Chip Rachlin, who was an agent at ICM in Los Angeles, working with Billy Joel, Eagles, Beach Boys, America, and many others. He later managed The Kinks and also worked at MTV in its' early days. The award is in VG condition with only very minor mars on the plexiglass and minor tarnishing of the metal 45. Its torn backing paper was replaced but otherwise the award is all original. Interested in knowing more about RIAA and other record awards and what makes them great to add to your collection?

These are historical artifacts from the year they were produced. As a result they may show signs of wear. Frankly, if you see a 20 to 50-year-old award purported to be in 100% perfect condition, it might be too good to be true. After all, an antique should have "good' wear. If not, you might want to question the piece. As to where they came from, they could have been displayed in record label offices, recording studios, artist manager's offices, radio stations, private collector's homes and yes, of course, possibly the artist's or songwriter's home. Typically, we don't know all the places they may have been over the years other than what we've stated in the description. Finally, a word on photos: Our photos are zoomable so you can get a very good look. Do let us know if you want photos of any other details on our pieces and we'll be happy to provide. *RIAA sales data source: RIAA.com Record label "platinum" LP/"gold" single award with artwork and colorful design including pink "paint spatter" matte and purple frame Presentation plate with note and printed Cyndi Lauper signature In VG conditio Estimated to have been made in 1984 Presented to a radio industry executive Original backing paper Award measures 19" x 25" Fantastic and genuine 80's collectors item for any Cyndi Lauper fa FREE insured shipping to continental U.S. International shipping available
