One of only 20 exclusive first-edition fine art prints.

Janis Joplin. 1953 Gibson J-45 acoustic guitar.
One of only two acoustic guitars in Janis Joplin’s possession at the time of her death in October 1970, aged 27. This well-loved Gibson J-45 served as her primary instrument until the last months of her life and is believed to have been the only personally-owned guitar that she played on stage during the height of her fame.

Joplin first learnt the song that would become her number one hit ‘Me and Bobby McGee’ on this guitar and performed it live on stage at both Nashville’s Fairgrounds Coliseum and New York City’s Madison Square Garden in December 1969.
