Detailed Item Description: This is a first presentation RIAA Platinum award that would have been manufactured sometime around 1993 when this style of RIAA award was made. That makes it approx. 19 years old. It is presented to the late Russ Thyret, who was at the time Sr. VP of Promotion at Warner Bros. Records and who became Chairman and CEO from 1995 to 2001.

This award is in VG condition, with only very minor mars on the frame and plexiglass. It has what appears to be orginal backing paper but the manufacturer label is missing.

Notes on the condition of all vintage RIAA awards: Please do not buy this item if you want a brand new piece of memorabilia. 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.
