Definitive Authentic Wraps 2023 With The Launch of Nancy Wilson’s Collectibles Shop

December 20th, 2023 – Definitive Authentic is the emerging consumer brand of parent company Inveniem - an archival content / IP management company. The company’s direct-to-fan digital content and authenticated collectible experiences are quickly becoming the go-to for top creators. 

Definitive Authentic is finishing 2023 strong, sharing a piece of Nancy Wilson’s (co-founder of Heart) rich history with a beautiful selection of never before available collectibles. 

The Nancy Wilson Shop collections include signed photographs of Nancy by noted photographer Neal Preston, featuring shots of the rock legend recording Heart classics in the studio and performing onstage with her beloved red Ovation 12-string guitar. Additional collection highlights include signed Karmann Sloane-designed art prints that evoke the power and energy of Nancy’s onstage presence, and reproductions of gorgeous Christmas cards designed and illustrated by Nancy that were sent to Heart fans throughout the years.

As with every Inveniem/Definitive Authentic client initiative, the collectibles offered in this shop are only the beginning. Nancy’s legacy platform will expand over time to share artifacts and stories from her entire, culturally defining history, directly from Nancy, to her fans.

Together with parent company Inveniem, Definitive Authentic will continue providing fans unparalleled access to their favorite artists in 2024. Previously released experiences include collaborations with Def Leppard (The Leppard Vault), Metallica - (The Metallica Black Box), Ghost - (Spillways Lounge), Stephen Stills (Instill Change Initiative), Devin Booker (Sneaker Auction), and Wiz Khalifa (The Wiz Vault). New initiatives coming in 2024 include collaborations with Mötley Crüe, The Naomi Judd Estate, and Monty Python Co-Founder Eric Idle.

Inveniem CEO Brad Mindich says, “It’s an honor and a privilege to collaborate with these world-renowned creators. We’re looking forward to multiple client releases and experiences in 2024 across genres and new verticals; it’s going to be an amazing year celebrating and sharing our clients’ extraordinary work with their worldwide fans."
