Description

Bob Neuwirth's exceedingly rare white pillowcase from the 1975–76 Rolling Thunder Revue concert tour with Bob Dylan, imprinted with the tour's circular emblem in dark brown, "Rolling Thunder Revue, Starring Bob Dylan, Joan Baez, Jack Elliott, Bob Neuwirth," with portraits of the four stars at center. The opposite side is imprinted with a "Rolling Thunder Revue" stage design. This pillowcase is identified as originating from the first leg of the Rolling Thunder Revue, as Ramblin’ Jack Elliott was a featured performer; the 30-show autumn tour of the northeast began in Plymouth, Massachusetts on October 30, 1975, and ended at NYC's Madison Square Garden on December 8, 1975. In fine to very fine condition. According to Dylan expert Jeff Gold, who appraised The Bob Dylan Archive for Dylan’s management, this is the first example of the Rolling Thunder Revue pillowcase to surface.




The majority of auction proceeds from the Neuwirth archives will support the completion of 'Untitled: Bob Neuwirth Project' documentary, exploring the life of music and art creative catalyst, Bob Neuwirth.
