I have been collecting, buying and selling SRV memorabilia since 1990. I am not nearly as active in the marketplace as I was from 1993 to 2010 when I had a large quantity of inventory. I still come across a few special things, and I continue to downsize my own collection. Please also see my film, sports and other music collectibles on other pages of this site.
SPECIAL ITEMS
The following items are the best I currently have to offer. Some are items previously owned by Stevie Ray Vaughan.
GUITAR PICKS!!
Of the 17 varieties of Stevie’s custom guitar picks with his name printed on them (see article elsewhere on this site), there were three that just said “Stevie Ray” with no last name. These tortoise shell color with his name in white letters date to 1983-1984. They were ordered through Charlie’s Guitar Shop in Dallas. I have ONE left at $750 plus s/h. Sorry the photo is a little blurry. The picks with the red line through are sold.
More affordable picks: Stevie’s two main guitar shops were Charley’s in Dallas, where he got the white guitar, and Heart of Texas in Austin, where he got Number One. He also scooped up a handful of picks when he stopped by either store. These picks are from Stevie’s personal pick supply and are genuine Stevie Ray Vaughan guitar picks. I acquired these directly from Stevie’s roadie who worked for him from 1982-1985. They come with a Statement of Authenticity signed by me. $185 each plus s/h. The yellow one and the white H.O.T are sold.
MISCELLANEOUS SRV ITEMS
2015 Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony program. Stevie Ray Vaughan, Ringo Starr, Lou Reed, Green Day, Bill Withers, Paul Butterfield and Joan Jett inductees. The back of the program is the only place you’ll see Peter Max’s artwork featuring Stevie. (I sold out of the posters.) Program $150.
Ticket stub to one of the most important SRV concerts he ever played – CARNEGIE HALL. There were only about 2800 seats, and finding a stub from this show is very difficult. In over 30 years I have only seen perhaps three tickets from Stevie’s Carnegie Hall show. Performing the day after his 30th birthday, Stevie was very proud to get to play in this historic venue. This stub is for a seat in the dress circle, the third level above the floor. Even up there, the price in 1984 was $15. A very rare opportunity to acquire a souvenir from a very important performance in Stevie’s career. $295
T-shirts: Dark gray shirt tagged size L is the only one left. Back is blank. The shirt is in excellent, possibly unworn, condition. $15.
There are FOUR items included in this listing. From the 2000 SRV box set, a 17 x 11 inch poster on heavy card stock with an iconic image of legendary guitarist Stevie Ray Vaughan playing the guitar behind his head. Note the Jimi Hendrix pin on his shirt! Also included is the counter-top promotional display sent to record stores, approximately 7 x 7 inches, easel-backed (one only; both sides shown in the photo). Also included is the easel-backed black box (back shown; still in open original shrink wrap) that held 30 posters for the record stores to give away with purchases. Also included in this listing is the paper instruction sheet for the promotional items sent to record stores. These items have been in my collection since 2000, obtained directly from the record company (I assisted with the liner notes). $40 for all 4 items; $35 for 3 items (no instruction sheet).
I did an exhibition of Stevie Ray Vaughan memorabilia (3500 square feet space in downtown Dallas) for a year in 2006-07. These are what is left of the promotional posters I had made. They are in excellent condition, approximately 17 x 11 inches. They feature one of my favorite images of the legendary guitarist. Some of the posters have small banners affixed to them to advertise the extension of the exhibit for an additional six months. $5 each.
Promotional poster for the award-winning biography of legendary guitarist Stevie Ray Vaughan. Near mint condition, approximately 17 x 11 inches. I will sign and personalize them in the white area if you like (specify). $3 each.
Stevie Ray Vaughan, The Real Deal: Greatest Hits 1, CD still sealed. I used to give these away at events to kids. I probably have 50-75 of these. Contact me if you are a music teacher (are there any of those left?) and will pledge to give these to kids in your classes. Free to teachers for use with your students – just pay inexpensive media mail postage.
