Prince worn white lace glove from October 1984, shortly after ''Purple Rain'' played in theaters. Lot also includes a guitar string from a guitar that Prince played on the night of 25 October 1984 at the 7th Street Entry, a well known Minneapolis concert venue. That night, a local band called The PedalJets played at the Entry, who were surprised, along with the rest of the audience, by an impromptu performance by Prince. Prince closed the venue off to only those who were in the audience for The PedalJets' performance, and used their equipment to do his set. As a memento, Prince gave his left glove to Scott Mize, lead guitarist for the PedalJets, whose LOA accompanies this lot as does a newspaper article from 31 October 1984 entitled ''PedalJets got no photos but kept Prince's white glove''. Scott Mize is referenced in the article as the band's lead guitar player. Lot is also accompanied by an audio recording of Prince's concert that night, running approximately 1/2 hour, with Prince even referencing the band at the beginning. Lace glove fits the left hand and measures approximately 8'' long and 3'' at the wrist. Some soiling from wear at the fingertips, but in otherwise near fine condition. A nice, personal Prince memento at the height of his stardom.
