Detailed Item Description: This is a first presentation RIAA Platinum award that would have been manufactured around 1995. It was made by official RIAA award maker Ill-Eagle Enterprises and is presented to music industry executive Phil Lashinsky.

The backing paper is original with manufacturer's sticker and the award is all original. It is in Good to VG with some mars on the frame, include a couple of heavier mars which are noticeable on close inspection. The backing paper also has some discoloration spots. Other than some frame wear the components are in very good condition.

Notes on the condition of all vintage RIAA 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.
