Description

Holly and the Crickets storm through England in 1958

Original vintage 1958 Buddy Holly and the Crickets souvenir program, 8.5 x 10.5, signed on the back cover full-page photo in fountain pen by Buddy Holly, Jerry Allison, and Joe Mauldin. Creasing and wrinkling with a faint diagonal crease running through the upper portion of Holly’s name, mild to moderate wear, a few small tears, and a split from the head of the spine to the bottom staple, otherwise very good condition. The faults do not detract from this always desirable set of signatures. Holly’s popularity was huge in England, rivaling that of fellow singer Elvis Presley. However, unlike Elvis, Holly and the Crickets spent a memorable month touring the country, which is still written about today. In the process, Holly and his band went on to inspire the likes of the Rolling Stones, and John Lennon and Paul McCartney of the Beatles. Pre-certified Roger Epperson/REAL and RR Auction COA.
