Gilbert O’Sullivan Himself

This Gilbert O’Sullivan Himself edition features the 1971 UK stereo vinyl LP album, released by MAM – MAM-SS 501 / MAM-SS.501. The front sleeve is hand signed in black ink by Gilbert O’Sullivan, the celebrated Irish singer-songwriter known for his lyrical wit, piano-driven melodies, and chart-topping success throughout the 1970s. The signature remains unaffected despite a split in the sleeve, which is easily repairable and does not detract from the autograph’s clarity or collectibility.

Presented in good condition, this item includes the original vinyl, sleeve, and autograph, all original to the 1971 release. The vinyl is untested, but visually intact. The sleeve shows signs of age and wear, including a split seam, but retains its structural integrity and visual appeal. A Certificate of Authenticity (COA) is included.

About the Album

Himself is Gilbert O’Sullivan’s debut studio album, released in August 1971, and produced by Gordon Mills. The album introduced O’Sullivan’s quirky persona and songwriting style to a wide audience, blending pop, vaudeville, and baroque influences with clever wordplay and emotional depth. It reached No. 5 on the UK Albums Chart, establishing him as one of the most distinctive voices of the decade.
