Letter written by Jim Morrison of The Doors to Dave Marsh of Creem Magazine during the recording of LA Woman

The Rare Collections recently uncovered a letter from Jim Morrison written to Dave Marsh of Creem Magazine in a private collection of memorabilia in Los Angeles, California. In the letter Morrison writes about his time in LA, making films and making music with The Doors. It stops without close or signature, so the five-page letter could have been a bit longer, but these pages are as they were discovered in the collection. 

The Rare Collections adds Authentic Militaria to their collection.

The new Militaria collection starts with a dozen unique bayonets from a private collector. The bayonets from the French, German, British, US and Japanese military date as early as 1871 and as recent as World War II.  The addition continues the recent expansion from primarily music memorabilia to other areas of pop culture.

The Rare Collections adds Authentic Sports Memorabilia

The new sports memorabilia collection comes from a private collector who purchased the items over many years and is downsizing and ready to part with the majority of his collection. The collection boasts autographed baseball bats, hockey sticks, autographed photos, artwork, figurines and more than a dozen authentic jerseys in excellent condition.
