He was born to a musical family in Lubbock, Texas during the Great Depression, and learned to play guitar and sing alongside his siblings. His style was influenced by gospel music, country music, and rhythm and blues acts, which he performed in Lubbock with his friends from high school.

Bob Dylan signed, handwritten lyrics from November 1961, when Dylan was performing at clubs in New York, shortly after he signed with Columbia Records. Dylan pens a song about Wisconsin, where he lived in late 1960 before moving to New York, and also where he spent time as a teenager at summer camp. The lyrics were given by Dylan to Peter Crago, a musician with whom Dylan briefly lived in New York in 1961. Full uncorrected lyrics by Dylan read,
”Bob Dylan – 11/20/61 / N.Y.C
1. Wisconson is the dairy state
I guess you all know well
I was in Wow Wow Toaster there
The truth to you I’ll tell
It’s milk & cheese & cream
I’ve known ’em all my days
I’m going back to my hometown I’m leaving right aways
2. I’m a heading out Wisconson ways
2000 miles to go
Madison, Milwakee set’s my heart aglow
I’m a coming to that dairy state
My heart’s a beating fast
I’ll pick my banjo gently there
And twiddle my mustache
3. There’s thoughts I left there long ago
One a coming now it seems
I’ll tune my banjo than the hills
And feast on milk and cream
And stamp my foot all thru the grass
And never know a care
My homes in Wow Wow Toaster
And I’m a going there”
The song continues on the verso:
”1. These people with you city ways
Are driving me insane to drink
My home’s in Wisconson it’s a better place I think
I’ve been in California
My home’s in Wisconson
And I”m gonna own the town”

Very Rare Doors Poster From a 1967 Performance at the Kaleidoscope Club in Hollywood
Original circular hand-pulled silkscreen poster, promoting a three day performance by the up-and-coming band The Doors, at the Kaleidoscope Club in Hollywood on 21-23 April 1967. A series of 20 posters were issued by Kaleidoscope in 1967, one for each concert that year. This dayglo fluorescent poster is considered to be the most rare in the Kaleidoscope series because of the type of ink used by artist John Douglas Kline in production. Posters in this series are almost non-existent because they were issued for promotion only, and the silkscreens used to produce the posters were burned in a fire. The Kaleidoscope was a psychedelic rock venue run by the management of the band Canned Heat. It was only open for roughly six months in 1967, with many memorable bands performing in that brief time. The venue was housed at the Earl Carroll Theater, which was then located at 6230 Sunset Boulevard in Hollywood, and featured two concentrically rotating stages at the center of the venue. For The Doors performance, the show was moved to a club called Ciros, at 8433 W. Sunset Boulevard in West Hollywood, (which is now the Comedy Store) since the original location of the club at the Earl Carroll Theatre had yet to be finalized. Circular poster depicts a silhouette of the faces of The Doors, with the band names in psychedelic 60’s font, and is printed in bright shades in a color combination meant to play tricks on the eye, as if looking through a psychedelic kaleidoscope. Previously owned by Alan Brackett, the original bass player in the Peanut Butter Conspiracy, who played with The Doors at this venue, along with The UFO. Poster measures 18.75″ in diameter, with some pinholes around the edge and very minor creasing. Near fine condition. Sold for $3,936.

Illustration of Snoopy is complemented by a nature scene of mountains and trees, drawn by Brooks Anderson, and signed ”Brooks ’99”. Lot also includes a laminated pass to the event, also showing the illustration of Snoopy. Schulz illustration measures 8” x 10” inside of black frame measuring 12.5” x 14.5”.
