Offered is a Bob Dylan signed LP album cover for his 1965 studio album “Bringing it All Back Home”. Dylan signed his name in black marker in the lower front center of the 12 x 12-inch 2015 reissue record jacket cover, which features a photo of Dylan in the foreground sitting in an armchair with magazines and a cat on his lap, with a woman in the background sitting in front of a fireplace in an armchair. The subtle image of a “Fallout Shelter” poster is in the left foreground. This was Dylan’s fifth studio album, and it features an electric half of songs, followed by a mostly acoustic half, while abandoning the protest music of Dylan's previous records in favor of more surreal, complex lyrics. On side one of the original LP, Dylan is backed by an electric rock and roll band—a move that further alienated him from some of his former peers in the folk music community. The album reached No. 6 on Billboard's Pop Albums chart, the first of Dylan's LPs to break into the US top 10. It also topped the UK charts later that spring. The first track, "Subterranean Homesick Blues", became Dylan's first single to chart in the US, peaking at No. 39. “Bringing It All Back Home” has been described as one of the greatest albums of all time by multiple publications. The album includes the original vinyl disc and is accompanied by an LOA from Roger Epperson Authentication for the signature, an LOA from Jeff Rosen, Dylan’s manager and the president of Bob Dylan Music Company, and an LOA from JSA for the signature.
