A concert-used handmade fiberglass tree used as a stage prop during Nirvana's 1993-1994 In Utero world tour. This was the top portion of one of two trees used during the tour; it can be seen in many photographs and videos. Tree top measures 4’9” tall, 5'6" across and 1" deep. This handmade tree has seen it's share of wear, with dings and repairs, but is very impressive in person. Accompanied by two letters of provenance, one from Michael Fisher, president of Proshow USA, and reads, in part: “My company, Proshow USA provided concert audio production services for Nirvana in the early days. The last tour was in Europe when everything went wrong. Our crew and equipment were actually stranded in Prague, the Czech republic, for a time after Kurt’s death. The tour equipment (including the stage sets) had to be sent back and then actually sat parked in trucks…until the estate would allow remaining members of the band to come and get what they wanted…At this point Dan Stinson came down with one of our employees to see if there was anything in the discarded pile they wanted to keep…I claimed a couple of Tree props that were part of the stage set…I am very pleased to give the Tree to my friend Dan.” The second letter is from Dan Stinson stating he acquired the tree from Fisher. Accompanied by a 10 x 17 print of the band on stage with the tree clearly visible.
