Item Description
23.75" tall by 20.75" dia. metal stage show-used trash can prop from Alice Cooper's 1989-1990 world tour "Alice Cooper Trashes The World." Trash can has large "Trash" text in lettering style as used on the album art spray-painted on the side and shows obvious wear w/numerous dents as it was used and abused on stage as part of Cooper's show. Wooden board reinforcement added inside base. Side of can has black marker inscription that reads in part "John 'Turbo' [last name illegible due to crack in can] Farted In Here! Cathouse 10/31/89," referencing a Halloween show Cooper put on at The Cathouse in Los Angeles, CA. The show was something of a double celebration for Cooper, as Epic Records had earlier in the day announced that his album "Trash" had gone gold, exceeding 500,000 copies as of Oct. 31. The performance itself began suitably at midnight but had to be stopped at one point to calm the crowd as they had been rushing the stage throughout the show. The can's seam is also broken along the side in a 9.5" section. Technically just Good, but appearance is as designed and was for stage use by Cooper. Awesome display piece. Comes w/Black Widow, Inc. legal envelope that has been printed to serve as a COA, w/text reading "This Letter Of Authenticity Certifies That The Alice Cooper Aluminum Trash Can Accompanying This Letter Is The Actual Stage Prop Used On The 'Alice Cooper Trashes The World' Tour c. 1989-1990" and has been signed by Brian Nelson of the Alice Cooper Archives and dated Dec. 30, 2001. Comes w/15.25x22.25" framed poster for Cooper's April 23, 1990 Sydney, Australia leg of the "Alice Cooper Trashes The World" tour and features image of Cooper w/cane (see item #2591). Exc. as framed.
