Keith Moon Signed Check from His Final Year (1978) Personal (Williams & Glyn's Bank Limited) check, 6 x 3, filled out in another hand and signed by Keith Moon, payable to J. B. Morris for £540.57, January 1, 1978. In fine condition. Encapsulated and graded by PSA/DNA as "GEM MT 10." Dated January 1, 1978, the check dates to the beginning of Keith Moon’s final year, during a transitional period for both the drummer and The Who. Moon had returned to England in September 1977 after several years based in Los Angeles, while The Who had been absent from the concert stage since 1976 and were then working on Who Are You. Recording sessions continued into 1978, ultimately producing the band’s final studio album with Moon on drums. He made his last performance with The Who during filming for The Kids Are Alright at Shepperton Studios on May 25, 1978, and died in London on September 7th, less than three weeks after the release of Who Are You.
