Amazing image, of course I am aware that this isn't the totality of Big Star but hibid has a dumb character limit in their title.
So here we have our heroes and members of Big Star Alex Chilton and Andy Hummel in front of Eggleston the Tailor's shop and next to Maberry's book/record shop at 345 Beale Street. Outrageously amazing photo.
Here is what we know, these items were in box marked "Eggleston." If you are familiar with the work of William Eggleston you may be familiar with some of these images. Some appear to have notes on the reverse while others do not. Eggleston and Jim were tight, so we feel the attribution is appropriate. We do not know who printed them, we do not know when or where they were printed but they are presumably vintage. Any information that we have regarding these images is contained in this description. They are authentic vintage printed photographs (i.e. not modern facsimiles or prints) and they are all UNSIGNED.
Measures 11x14, some wear to the edges. Chipping, discoloration, etc.
