Benny Goodman's Clarinet.
Dubbed "The King of Swing," Benny Goodman's arrival on the music scene heralded the beginning of the Swing era. Mostly remembered as a band leader, Goodman was also a clarinet virtuoso with a distinctive style. Arguably the most technically proficient Jazz clarinetist of his time, he played the instrument for decades until his death in New York City in 1986 at the age of 77, and in the process inspired many budding musicians to take up the instrument. This Selmer brand clarinet was made in 1929 for the legendary Jazz man (his name is inscribed on the bell) and used by him early in his career. The instrument has been well-used but is still in great condition, and comes in the original carrying case, which is worn but still sturdy. A wonderful item whose significance in the history of music is immeasurable.

Elvis Presley Official Unused Jumper Dress (Little Jean Togs, Inc., 1956).
This is one incredible item for any Elvis fan! This is one of the earliest of the Elvis Presley Enterprises-licensed clothing items, a size 14 flecked-grey felt sleeveless Jumper Dress, with half-inch red leather belt, red "diamond" buttons in front, pleated skirt, and a wonderful white and red applique of Elvis playing guitar and singing, standing in front of a musical chart. The figure of Elvis is approximately 11". The dress comes complete with all its original tags, including a 4" x 7" store tag with a full-color photo of the King, rocking out on his acoustic guitar. Even the original price tag is here, with a store price of $14.95 -- not too cheap by 1956 standards! The dress has been professionally mounted in a black wooden shadow-box frame, with a red felt lining, and comes with a plaque describing this as an original E.P.E. product. Everything is in Excellent condition. Even long-time Elvis collectors we've talked to have never seen an unused example of this rare item -- and only one or two in used condition!

"The Freewheelin' Bob Dylan" Rare LP with Four Deleted Tracks Columbia 1986 Mono (1963).
This extremely rare album variation is cited by the Goldmine Album Guide at the top of its "100 Most Valuable U. S. Albums" chart. After
Freewheelin'
was recorded in 1963, there were four tracks that did not make the final release -- "Talkin' John Birch Society Blues," "Let Me Die in My Footsteps," "Rocks and Gravel," and "Gamblin' Willies Dead Man's Hand." The reasons for this depend on whom you ask; some say CBS pressured Dylan to remove "Talkin' John Birch" because they feared some would find it offensive; others say Dylan simply chose to reshuffle the track list for artistic reasons (a number of tracks recorded with a full backing band had already been scrapped to maintain Dylan's presence as an acoustic folk performer). Either way, just before the first version of the album was to be shipped, the decision was made to replace four of the songs. Somehow a number of the original discs got out, although the covers and the record labels showed the revised songlist. Naturally, these have become much sought-after collectors' items. In our October 2005 auction, this same copy sold for just over $20,000, and is available at this time because of the untimely death of the winning bidder. It is thought that only a few other mono copies exist, and the only two known stereo copies of this version are now valued at upwards of $75,000. Oh, and the songs listed on the cover and on the labels of this copy that supplanted the originals listed above, and which
were
included on the common commercial-release version are "Girl From The North Country", "Masters Of War", "Bob Dylan's Dream", and "Talking World War III Blues". The cover on this copy is in MT 9 condition and still in the original shrink wrap. The record itself is in EX 7 condition with some minor noise on "Blowin' in the Wind." This is one of the prize offerings in the auction. Condition: MT 9/ EX 7.

Elvis and Colonel Tom Parker Signed Movie Contract.
In 1956, Colonel Tom Parker negotiated a sizeable movie contract with the Wallis and Hazen production company for budding superstar Elvis Presley. Many historians and biographers have debated over the years whether or not Parker's deal was a great one for Elvis, or merely adequate. This original contract, dated April 2, 1956, and signed by Elvis, Parker, Hal Willis, and Joseph Hazen on the last page, gives the details of the deal -- a very modest one at that. It calls for Elvis to appear in one film a year over a period of seven years, at the starting rate of $15,000, with annual raises that had him earning $100,000 in the seventh and final year of the contract, plus the right to make one film a year for another production company of his choice. Elvis' first film under the contract was 1957's
Loving You,
and he made a total of nine films with Wallis/Hazen, the last being
Easy Come, Easy Go
in 1967. The contract is in overall excellent condition, with the standard binder holes to the top of each page, with some tape residue on the upper left corners of the first and last pages. A significant document that puts to rest a long-standing debate.

John Lennon Signed White Album Cover.
Most often referred to as
The White Album
and released at the height of the Beatle's popularity, their 1968 self-titled LP still stands as one of the major accomplishments in popular music and ranked #10 on

's list of the 500 greatest albums of all time. This particular copy of the album cover was signed on the back quite nicely by John Lennon in red ballpoint.

Also included is a picture of Lennon signing the album cover, and a letter of authenticity. In Very Fine condition with some mild to moderate discoloration and soiling.

Beatles, Helen Shapiro, and Tommy Roe Signatures Set.
This great set of signatures includes an autograph book page signed John, Paul, George, and Ringo, each very nicely in blue ballpoint, with Paul adding "Beatles" above his signature.

The page is matted along with two others, one signed by Roe and the other signed by singer Helen Shapiro, (for whom the band served as opening act in what was their first national tour), along with a handbill touting "1962: The Beatles Year of Achievement." The items are in Excellent condition and framed to an overall size of 16" x 15". This lot comes with a LOA from Frank Caiazzo.

Rare Photos of Beatles in Dallas with Camera.
This set of 23 unpublished b&w 8" x 10" photos was taken by then-16-year-old fan Michael Day during the Beatles' September 18, 1964, visit to Dallas. Day's grandfather worked as a technician for the Associated News, and took his grandson with him to both the press conference and concert at the Dallas Memorial Auditorium. Day was able to speak briefly with Ringo Starr during the conference, and says of the concert: "The noise level from the crowd was so loud that I could feel the floor shaking. There were all different age groups waving their hands and shouting. The excitement was so intense; people were jumping up and down as the Beatles sang." The set includes 16 shots from the band's press conference earlier in the day and seven from their performance that night (including a great photo of screaming Beatlemaniacs in the audience). A large number of Dallas police officers can be seen around the stage, which comes as no surprise since it had been less than a year since the assassination of President Kennedy. Each is in Excellent condition with a very small amount of yellowing along the edges. Also included with the photos are the original negatives, the copyright for these never-before-seen images, the Ricohflex camera Day used to shoot them more than 40 years ago (in Very Fine condition), and a letter of authenticity from Day.

Elvis Presley TV Special Adhesive Poster.
On April 8, 1960 -- about a month after his discharge from the Army -- the album
Elvis is Back!
had been released to mixed reviews by critics and fans, and the subsequent social upheaval of the 1960s, the British Invasion spearheaded by the Beatles, and a career shift towards movies caused Presley's star to fade for a time -- until a triumphant televised performance later dubbed the " '68 Comeback Special" aired on NBC on December 3, 1968 and paved the way for the King's return to the charts. This unused 24" x 36" adhesive poster for the special is in Fine to Very Fine condition and still on its original backing, with light wear and wrinkling and no discoloration.

Kiss Signed "MTV Unplugged" Acoustic Guitar.
When the original line-up of Kiss re-united on
MTV Unplugged
in 1995, fan reaction was so positive that they began touring together again for the first time since 1979 (and the first -- and only -- time they performed together without their trademark make-up). This Takamine 12-string FP 400SC acoustic guitar was used by Paul Stanley in a performance of "Hard Luck Woman" during the taping of the show, and is signed by Ace Frehley, Gene Simmons, Peter Criss, and Stanley in black marker. Although the song was not featured in the broadcast version of the episode, a VHS tape of it being performed is included, as well as the original receipt, two signed letters of authenticity, and a color snapshot of Stanley signing the guitar. This fine instrument is in Excellent condition.

Bob Dylan Tufts University Concert Handbill (1964).
By the time
The Times They Are A-Changin'
was released in early 1964, Bob Dylan's songwriting had developed far beyond that of his New York peers. Heavily inspired by poets like Arthur Rimbaud and John Keats, it had developed a more literate and evocative quality. Dylan had also begun to expand his musical boundaries, adding more Blues and R&B influences to his songs. This handbill for Dylan's March 7, 1964, concert at Tufts University, given during that early transitional period, features four photos of the musician. In Very Fine condition with two small punch holes in the center, a fold crease, and mild staining to the bottom and left edges.

John Lennon "Yoko" Erotic Litho, 139/300 (1970).
John's sketches of his wife Yoko Ono represent a side of the beloved artist and singer that few fans know. The highly personal nature of this series means most are rarely displayed. That's a real shame, as these fine line prints are highly stylized, much in the way Picasso's later drawings had pared down everything but the essential lines. Nothing that isn't needed has been added, leaving a very simple, yet direct, portrait of the artist's subject. Lennon has boldly signed the print in pencil. This beautiful fine art litho, generally considered the most popular of the entire series, measures approximately 30" x 22.75", and is framed to an overall size of 33.25" x 26.5". In Excellent condition.

Bob Dylan Newport Folk Festival Program (1965).
Bob Dylan gave memorable, groundbreaking folk music performances at Newport in 1963 and 1964, but his appearance at the 1965 festival is remembered for other reasons. There are two wildly divergent accounts of the crowd's response when Dylan debuted an electric se. One version of the legend says the boos were from the outraged folk fans Dylan alienated with his electric guitar; the other has it that audience members were upset by poor sound quality and a surprisingly short set.
The settled fact is that Dylan, met with a mix of cheering and booing, left the stage after only three songs ("Maggie's Farm," "Like a Rolling Stone," and "It Takes a Lot to Laugh, It Takes a Train to Cry"). Despite the crowd's disfavor, he later re-emerged and sang two much better received solo acoustic numbers, "Mr. Tambourine Man" and, appropriately, "It's All Over Now, Baby Blue."
Footage of Dylan's performance at the festival surfaced in 2005 in Martin Scorsese's documentary
No Direction Home.
The footage begins with emcee Peter Yarrow's introduction of Dylan, and the sound of loud booing and sporadic cheering begins just a few bars into "Maggie's Farm" and continues throughout the next song, "Like a Rolling Stone." Ultimately, Dylan stuck to his electric guns and took his music into new, unfamiliar territory, and did not return to Newport until 2002.
This program from the infamous '65 festival is in Fine to Very Fine condition with light wear, moderate soiling and tanning to the covers, and a few instances of handwriting throughout, but also with very clean, crisp pages. (A surreal page-and-a-half short story by Dylan titled "Of the Top of My Head" begins on page 17.) A great, rare item from a pivotal moment in American Pop music history.

Jimi Hendrix Experience Spokane Coliseum Concert Poster (1968).
With the release of the classic double-record album
Electric Ladyland,
Jimi Hendrix and his British backing band, the Experience, were riding high. Such heights were not to last, as tensions between Jimi and bassist Noel Redding mounted, and by the next year, Redding would leave to form his own band, Fat Mattress. This Northwest concert found the trio intact, and must have been a real treat for any fan lucky enough to have been there. Opening the show were two British psych bands, Eire Apparent (whose only album was produced by Jimi), and Soft Machine, plus the heavy New York combo Vanilla Fudge. The poster measures approximately 23" x 17", and has been professionally matted and framed in a special acid-free backing, with UV plexiglass, for an overall size of 29" x 23.25".

Jimi Hendrix Army Photo and Book.
After getting into trouble with the law over a stolen car, Hendrix traded a two-year jail sentence for a stint in the U.S. Army, enlisting on May 31, 1961. After boot camp in Fort Ord, California, he was assigned to the 101st Airborne Division and stationed in Fort Campbell, Kentucky as a trainee paratrooper. (Other paratrooper divisions would later claim that he was part of their unit.) His letters home indicated that Hendrix was adjusting to Army life and was very excited to be a part of the respected 101st Airborne. His military records, however, suggest that Hendrix was a less-than-stellar soldier, repeatedly caught sleeping while on duty and missing at bed-check.Tellingly, one superior said that "his mind apparently cannot function while performing duties and thinking about his guitar." On May 31, 1962, after one full year of service, Hendrix was recommended for discharge for behavior problems, and finally had time to pursue his music career. Hendrix would later state that the sound of air whistling through the parachute shrouds was one of the sources of his "spacy" guitar sound. Featured here is a Fort Ord Training Center boot camp graduation book featuring a photo of Hendrix and an 8" x 10" platoon photo that features the legendary guitarist in the back row, third from the left. Both are in Excellent condition with some minor wear to the book's spine.

Beatles "Yesterday and Today" 3rd State Stereo Butcher Cover Capitol 2553 (1966).
Oh, those jokesters! Doll parts and raw meat! Not so funny, opined a large percentage of the relatively few who saw it before Capitol higher-ups decided the cover was an ill-conceived idea. So, Capitol hurriedly selected an alternate cover (the "Trunk" cover), and withdrew the Butcher Cover, in some cases slapping the new cover right on top of it. That's what happened here, but the outer cover has been cleverly removed to reveal the dastardly Butcher Cover once again for we aficionados who appreciate a twisted concept when we see one! The Stereo versions is much rarer than the rare-in-its-own-right Mono version. There is some minor wear on the cover: at bottom right around Ringo, on John's left knee, on the doll head in Paul's lap, and along the spine. Condition: VG 5/ VG-EX 6.

Beatles Kansas City "Extra Show" Concert Ticket.
The Beatles had originally planned on resting a bit on September 17, 1964, but wealthy promoter Charles O. Finley approached manager Brian Epstein with a whopping $150,000 offer to add a Kansas City stop to their tour. The Beatles launched into "Kansas City", then segued to Little Richard's "Hey-Hey-Hey-Hey", resulting in such an uproarious reception that the concert was threatened with cancellation if the audience didn't calm down! This unused ticket to the memorable show is in Excellent condition with some very light wear.

Dimebag Darrell/Damageplan Signed Washburn Guitar.
Dimebag Darrell and Vinnie Paul started forming Damageplan in early 2003, not long after the awkward breakup of their previous band, Pantera. The brothers began working on tracks at Darrell's home studio in Dallas, and their first album,
New Found Power,
debuted in February 2004 to a strong response. But tragedy struck on December 8, 2004, at the Alrosa Village rock club in Columbus, Ohio, when Darrell and three other men were shot to death in a bizarre altercation with a disgruntled fan. This black Washburn Dime 332 Signature Model guitar, designed in 2003 to the guitarist's specs (he in turn endorsed the brand during his career), is signed in silver Sharpie by Dimebag Darrell, as well as Damageplan members Vinnie Paul, Patrick Lachman, and Bob Zilla. In Excellent condition.
