Detailed Item Description: This is a CRIA Gold award that would have been manufactured in 1994 making it approx. 27 years old. This award is presented to Blue Wave Productions, one of the studios at which the album was recorded.

Provenance letter can be seen in images.

This award is in VG to Excellent condition with original manufacturer's sticker. It has only a very minor scratch or two on its metal frame. 

Notes on the condition of all vintage awards: 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.
