The Velvet Underground, fully signed ticket from the opening night of the 1993 reunion tour in Edinburgh:


This was a gift from an extremely generous friend within the Lou Reed fan community.

I was actually at this gig, but had a long drive home, so didn’t have time to wait for the band afterwards.  Receiving this ticket today means the world to me.

Three more Lou Reed autographs:



These were gifted to me from the same friend as the signed Velvets ticket.  They were all obtained in person by a well known U.K. super fan, who sadly died a while back, so the provenance is impeccable.

Got my All Washed Up Cheap Trick signed cd.  Wow what a rocker.  

The Velvet Underground — another fully signed ticket from the opening night of the 1993 reunion tour in Edinburgh.

My friend’s generosity knows no bounds.

The Velvet Underground — 30 October 1971, Mountford Hall, University of Liverpool, Liverpool, Lancashire, U.K.

A handbill for an unrelated event, signed to the rear by Moe Tucker (who also signed on behalf of Doug Yule), Walter Powers, and Willie Alexander.

The handbill came with three stage-used drumsticks, given to the original recipient after the Liverpool show by Moe Tucker.

It is extremely rare to find vintage autographs, or stage-used equipment, from any era of the Velvets.


Two original, signed Polaroid photographs of Moe Tucker from The Velvet Underground, taken in the United States, year unknown.


I have done some further research based on the background shown in the photos.  As a result, I can confirm that they were taken outside the Khyber Pass Pub in Philadelphia, PA, most likely on 3 October 1994.

My mini fuzzy guitar signed by Billy Gibbons arrived yesterday..

Sterling Morrison (The Velvet Underground) — American Red Cross first aid certification card, dated 29 September 1981, signed to the rear with his legal name of Holmes S. Morrison, Jr.

This card dates from Sterl’s time piloting tug boats in the Houston Ship Channel.


The Maureen Tucker Band with Sterling Morrison — 9 February 1992, Zap Club, Brighton, East Sussex, U.K.

An original, used ticket, plus a tour T-shirt signed by Moe, Sterling, and Sonny Vincent.

The Brighton show was Sterling’s very first gig as part of Moe’s touring band.  She’d been trying to get him to go on the road with her for three years.  An important milestone on the journey to the full 1993 Velvet Underground reunion tour.
