Want to own a piece of U2 history? Well, you can. A seller called ‘bruegel2004’ has put up this intriguing item for auction on eBay.
Item description:
Your chance to own U2’s first ever stage backdrop, measuring 260cm X 260cm hand painted ‘BOY’ on canvas. This backdrop has featured in all the band’s early appearences ie. Old Grey Whistle Test and Live At Red Rocks. There are a couple of small holes due to the canvas folding during storage but generally in very good condition and has been well cared for. Your chance to purchase a genuine piece of rock memorabilia.
You’re going to have to dig deep for this one. The starting bid is GBP 1,500.00.
Sorry to sound like a geek but isn’t it the ‘War’ image used at Red Rocks, not the ‘Boy’?

Well, it probably wasn’t used at Red Rocks.
God knows, it may even be an old sheet that this person’s printed Radar’s face on.

If it’s authentic… wouldn’t Larry already own it? 😉

The seller provides no information to authenticate the item. Seems suspect to me.

“U2’s first ever stage backdrop”. It must be fake. They were using backdrops before Boy came out…
