Frank Sinatra Autographed Album

Description

Frank Sinatra Autographed Album. Jim Stein was Frank Sinatra’s project manager. From the estate of Jim and Betty Stein.
Jim and Betty were born and raised in Hollywood. When the Depression hit, Betty moved to Catalina Island while her father was a band leader for the Wrigleys. During the war, Jim was a Merchant Marine in the Pacific Theatre while Betty worked at the Knickerbocker Hotel. In later years, Jim was employed by Canada Dry and Anheuser Bush as a merchandizing supervisor as well as a project manager for Frank Sinatra who owned the company. Preferring to live close to the Pacific Ocean, he spent his spare time collecting antique seafaring and nautical items and transforming them into maritime-themed art installations and decorations, expressing his memories and dreams of life on the sea.
Betty worked for the American Red Cross during the Vietnam War, and later the Tri Valley Special Olympics. She loved animals with a passion and was always happiest to have a menagerie of domestic (some exotic) animals to help fill in the quiet times. Together, Jim and Betty worked on their homes in Burbank, Catalina and Carpinteria. For Mother’s Day in 1971, Jim gave Betty a baby Capuchin Monkey, naming it “Siwa.” This monkey not only became Betty’s one and only daughter, she was the only other girl in the family – living for 38 years!
