Provenance: comes with a letter from the original recipient which reads as follows:
‘Nick Mason lives in the next town to me (Corsham). I am friendly with the staff and I have met the man himself quite a while ago. I asked Nick Mason to sign this bongo, because I am a Pink Floyd fan he done it and was over the moon to make me happy. It has been in my living room for a few years, a treasured instrument. It is time to move it on. This is my letter of authenticity. I am sure this bongo will go to a great home.’
