Offered is a "ELVIS IN PERSON 56" backstage pass button worn on Elvis Presley tours in 1974 by crew and other stage personnel like sound engineer Bruce Jackson. By numbering the passes, it created some accountability among the crew when they gave their pass to someone who was not authorized. Someone like a pretty girl. Glad Bruce kept his! The offered example shows just a bit of wear. Near Mint condition.

The Bruce Jackson Collection - Elvis Presley Concert Sound Engineer


These items and another 22 lots in this auction emanate from the estate of Elvis Presley's Sound Engineer, Bruce Jackson. In the 1970s. Jackson worked with Claire Brothers Audio Enterprises and was responsible for the onstage monitor sound for Elvis Presley for 100s of concerts. The offered artifacts hail from that period of Jackson's career. He would go on to work with Bruce Springsteen for 10 years, and did sound for Barbara Streisand, as well. In addition to Presley, Springsteen and Streisand, Jackson mixed concert sound for Diana Ross, Stevie Wonder, Rod Stewart and the Faces, Barry White, Jefferson Airplane, Ozzy Osbourne, Carly Simon, Three Dog Night, the Jackson 5, Cat Stevens, Glen Campbell, Art Garfunkel, Procol Harum and Lou Reed. Jackson kept a vast and interesting assortment of backstage passes, crew ephemera and tour documents from his time with Elvis Presley, some of which have rarely been seen by fans. We hope you enjoy the collection.
