On the strength of their recently released self-titled debut, Van Halen's first major world tour began on March 3, 1978. Throughout the tour Van Halen was mostly a supporting act for bands such as Black Sabbath and Journey, however, Van Halen did headline shows in Europe and Japan. This photo was signed on March 7, 1978, in Madison, Wisconsin, when the band performed at the Shuffle Inn with opening act Lucy Grey, marking one of the few North American concerts that Van Halen headlined on the tour. A sensational oversized and fully signed photo from early on in the band's career.
