Autographed Postcard Max Pezzali – Max 20 Album Promo – 2013 – 14x12.5 cm – COA

Max Pezzali's autographed postcard for the album Max 20

A memento that speaks directly to the heart of a generation: the official promotional postcard for the album Max 20, released in 2013 to celebrate Max Pezzali's and 883's twenty-year career. The artwork is historically emblematic: it portrays the current Pezzali alongside the young Pezzali of the early nineties, in a symbolic temporal comparison between the two souls of his musical career, with the Max 20 logo prominently displayed in red above the two images. Max Pezzali's original autograph is affixed with a black marker, crossing both versions of himself, in a graphically significant gesture that unites the past and present of his artistic story. The dimensions of 14x12.5 cm are typical of promotional postcards distributed at the time in music stores and at events, ideal for display in a frame. A rare piece because paper promotional material – unlike albums – is not produced in large numbers and tends to disappear quickly from circulation, making autographed copies particularly sought after by collectors. Excellent condition, impeccable preservation.

The artist: Max Pezzali

Massimo Pezzali, known to all as Max, was born in Pavia on November 14, 1967, and is one of Italy's most beloved and representative singer-songwriters of his generation. In 1988, together with his childhood friend Mauro Repetto, he founded the duo 883, a name inspired by the legendary Harley-Davidson Sportster 883. Their debut took place in 1991 at the Castrocaro Festival with Hanno ucciso l'Uomo Ragno, a song that would become one of Italy's pop culture anthems. Albums that would mark an entire generation followed: Nord Sud Ovest Est in 1993 with Come mai, Sei un mito and Non me la menare, La dura legge del gol! in 1997, Grazie mille in 1999. After Repetto's departure in 1994, Pezzali continued solo, maintaining the name 883 until 2003, when he began his solo career. The first album Il mondo insieme a te was released in 2004, followed by the compilation TuttoMax in 2005, certified Diamond Record. The album Max 20 in 2013, the subject of this promotional postcard, revisited the greatest hits of 883 and Max Pezzali in a contemporary key, featuring duets with artists such as J-Ax, Emis Killa, Claudio Baglioni, Fedez, Baby K, and Club Dogo, becoming one of the most successful projects of his mature discography. Between 883 and his solo career, he has sold over ten million records, consistently ranking among Italy's most popular singers of all time.

What is an original autographed postcard?

An original autographed postcard is a unique piece where the artist's signature has been directly applied to the cardstock in certified presence, without intermediaries. It is distinctly different from printed reproductions or facsimiles due to several verifiable elements: the irregular and natural pressure of the stroke, the three-dimensionality of the ink on the paper, and the spontaneity of the graphic gesture. Promotional postcards are particularly sought after by music collectors because, being advertising material distributed for free and in limited editions at the time of an album's launch, they tend to quickly disappear from circulation and become rare over time. In addition to these elements, the MTM Letter of Authenticity (LOA) is provided free of charge, with the option to add a COA for internationally recognized protection. The collectible value grows over time in relation to the career, historical relevance, and popularity of the signing artist.
