Detailed Item Description: This RIAA 3x Multi-Platinum award would have been manufactured sometime between 1998 and 2002, given the certification dates and when this style of RIAA awards were made, making this award approximately 18-22 years old. This award was given to EMI Music Publishing executive Bart Weiss.

It is all original with what appears to be unopened backing paper. Although the manufacturer's sticker is not present, there is sticker residue in the size and shape that would indicate the award was most likely made by Fitzgerald Hartley, although that cannot be known for certain. This award is in Good condition, with evidence of minor moisture damage on the bottom left of the matte board (and on the backing paper) and some minor mars on the frame and plexiglas.

Notes on the condition of all vintage RIAA and/or record awards like this one: 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: Do let us know if you want photos of any other details on our pieces and we'll be happy to provide.
