Heritage

Continued from page 5

the12th stop on the tour but fell to the ground; there are no pinholes, just the residue of the sticky material used to keep it in place. The maintenance man who found it placed the poster in a closet, face down, and forgot about it for 50 years. Decades later, it was sold to a poster dealer who then sold it to Jim Cook, its current consignor.

This poster was created as a so-called tour blank by the legendary Murray Poster Printing Co. of New York. Unlike its Mankato counterpart, which has the show information printed in the space above the musicians’ names and photos, the Moorhead Armory’s name, the concert date and the two showtimes (“7:30 + 9:30”) were written in red grease pencil, which was common practice.

There are five known Winter Dance Party posters. This is the only one known for the show Holly, Valens and the Big Bopper never made. Astonishingly, the show went on without the men killed shortly after takeoff. Bobby Vee, then all of 15, performed Holly’s songs, because he knew all the words. Waylon Jennings ultimately filled in for his friend for the tour’s final two weeks.

“To think, rock bands today move stadium shows because one member has the flu,” stated Howard. “Here, the top three headliners died, and the show went on. Unbelievable. The sheer poignancy of seeing that date on the poster, Feb. 3, and how the venue box is filled in so casually by hand adds to the window card’s impact.”

Four days before that scheduled show in Moorhead, Dylan and his best friend, Louis Kemp, drove to Duluth in Kemp’s father’s 1958 Buick to see Holly. It was brutally cold: “With the windchill,” Kemp wrote in his autobiography, “(it) was minus 44 degrees.” But young Bob was a fan and couldn’t be kept away. “I have always believed that a spiritual connection of some kind was forged This is Buddy Holly & the Crickets’ “The Day the Music Died” 1959 historic concert poster.

that night between Buddy Holly and Bobby Zimmerman, though no one in the crowd was aware of it,” wrote Kemp. “I only know what I saw, and it looked a lot like a torch being passed.”

Four years later, Dylan played to about 1,000 people at New York City’s Town Hall. His 24-song set list that night included “Blowin’ in the Wind,” “A Hard Rain’s A-Gonna Fall,” “Don’t Think Twice, It’s All Right,” “Masters of War” and “Boots of Spanish Leather.” In The Times the following day, Shelton wrote that Dylan was “a folk musician who breaks all the rules of song writing except those of having something to say and saying it stunningly. The songs are among the best written in this country’s folk vein since Woody Guthrie stopped composing.”

Handbills from this historic occasion have been sold at auction before. Posters from the Town Hall show are exceedingly rare; there are three known to have survived the journey from 1963. There is but one of these Dylan-decorated posters, a Holy Grail long hidden from the public.

He also added something at the bottom of the poster concerning the record label that was to release his second record, “The Freewheelin’ Bob Dylan,” a month later. Where it says only “Columbia Records,” Dylan added: “is a drag.”

“This poster has a backstory unparalleled in my 30-year history with concert posters,” according to Howard. “This isn’t just any good musician. This isn’t just any concert poster. And this isn’t just any autograph. For all the reasons mentioned above, this is among my favorite concert posters. If I could have just one concert poster for the rest of my life, this would be it.”
