Note that this item comes from the estate of Maine country-western and bluegrass pioneer of Event Records, Allerton "Al" Hawkes. This item includes Mr. Hawkes' own signature. Al Hawkes is remembered for his pirate radio station, WW2A, which broadcast out of Maine in the 1940s; he and Alton Meyers performed together as the first interracial white-and-black country-bluegrass music duo, the Cumberland Ridge Runners, in the 1940s; and as the founder of Event Records, he recorded with musicians including a young Lenny Breau, Dick Curless, Hal Lone Pine, and Curtis Johnson. The iconic Hawkes Plaza Repair Shop walking service man sign on Route 302 in Westbrook, Maine, is also a very familiar part of his legacy to all Maine tourists and locals alike. Mr. Hawkes passed away on December 28, 2018.
