Created by our own Joshua Leland Evans, Chairman of Lelands.com, this is entitled "Willie's Reserve." Dedicated entirely to country & southern rock music, this marvelous art piece is covered with a collage of vintage backstage passes from the 1980s and 1990s all related to country music. The aptly named "Rogue" model acoustic guitar (plays perfectly) is a nice quality instrument plastered with vintage passes from such bands and artists as the great George Jones, Conway Twitty, Billy Ray Cyrus, Travis Tritt, Reba, Allman Brothers, Kenny Rogers, Lynyrd Skynyrd, and even Jackie Gleason as the politically incorrect Southern sheriff Buford T. Justice in the "Smokey & The Bandit" movie franchise. It would not be complete without more than one of Willie Nelson's passes, and he has signed the pickguard in mint blue Sharpie (PSA/DNA certified). This is one of about ten that Evans has so far completed and signed and dated (2/2016) by the artist along with the title "Willie's Reserve." All of the passes are 100% vintage originals obtained directly by Leland's from the archive of Otto Printing and Entertainment, the dominant force in printing concert backstage passes and tickets still to this day.
