Unique archive of materials originating from the personal collection of a Woodstock security guard, who worked the iconic festival on Max Yasgur's dairy farm in Bethel, New York, from August 15 to 18, 1969. Includes:
- a rare original Woodstock security staff cotton t-shirt in green, measuring 18.5˝ from armpit to armpit, featuring the silkscreened bird-on-guitar Woodstock Music and Art Fair emblem in black and white. Impressively mounted and framed to an overall size of 32.25 x 31.5. As no souvenir t-shirts were produced for sale at the festival, only the extremely rare staff wardrobe pieces—shirts and jackets—represent the only available 'official' apparel from the iconic music festival.
- an extremely rare Woodstock security staff nylon jacket in green, measuring 22.5˝ across the waist, featuring the iconic Woodstock Music and Art Fair emblem silkscreened in black and white. Mounted and framed to an overall size of 28.25 x 37.25.
- an original unused three-day admission ticket for the iconic Woodstock Music and Art Fair, 6 x 2, issued for August 15-17, 1969, numbered "23218," issued for sales at the gate and priced at $24. Mounted on a 10 x 8 wooden plaque.
Additionally includes: an original special edition of Life Magazine covering the Woodstock Music Festival, matted and framed; a variety of other magazines and publications covering the festival; two reprint Woodstock souvenir posters; an official Woodstock '94 t-shirt; and a Woodstock '94 commemorative plaque.
In overall very good to fine condition, with minor craquelure to the silkscreened Woodstock emblems, consistent with age and use.
