1982 The Replacements Camera Negative Lost Rock & Roll Photo Live @ Duffy's

Description

Grapefruit Moon Gallery just acquired a compelling archive of never-before-seen 35MM camera negatives taken in the early 1980s chronicling the Minneapolis punk rock and hardcore scene. The photographer was Tim Schuck, a 1980 graduate of Marshall University High School and classmate of Daniel Murphy, founder and co-owner of Grapefruit Moon Gallery. These images have never been published and until recently they have been in storage unseen and unknown. Schuck shot many rolls of images of Husker Du, The Replacements and other local and national rock & roll, punk, and hardcore bands. He is best known as the photographer of the now iconic Grain Belt Beer shot of the Replacements taken at Hum's Liquor store on 22nd and Lyndale in Minneapolis.
ITEM: This auction is for the original 1982 35MM camera negative shown. It was taken by Tim Schuck, who was hired by long time manager Peter Jesperson to photograph the band The Replacements for Twin/Tone records, around the time of their second release "Stink". This frame shows the whole band - drummer Chris Mars, Guitar player "Smoking and Drinking" Bob Stinson, bassist Tommy Stinson and singer/guitarist Paul Westerberg as they blow the roof off of Duffy's Bar in South Minneapolis.
This image has never been published and is by all accounts previously unseen!
The watermarks do not appear on the actual negative and a large high resolution unobstructed scan of the image can be provided to the winning bidder by Grapefruit Moon Gallery inclusive of the sale. This auction includes copyright transfer.
Measures approx. 1 1/2 " by 1 1/4"
CONDITION: Fine condition, a very nice clean carefully stored and archived camera negative - the image has been converted to a positive image here the watermarks do not appear on the actual negative. A high resolution scan of the negative is included in the sale as is full and complete copyright transfer.
Guaranteed to be 100% vintage and original from Grapefruit Moon Gallery.
