Provenance
Charles "Chip" Rachlin (1949–2023) built a distinguished career in the music and entertainment industry spanning more than five decades. His passion for live music began as a teenager promoting concerts while attending Summit High School before joining legendary concert promoter Bill Graham at the Fillmore East. Mentored by industry executive Herb Spar, Rachlin later joined ICM in Los Angeles, where he became Billy Joel's first booking agent while also representing artists including the Eagles, the Beach Boys, America, and many others. Rachlin later managed The Kinks before reuniting with Bill Graham as tour administrator for the Rolling Stones' landmark 1981 and 1982 tours. During the early years of MTV, he served as Director of Acquisitions before founding his own production company, Screenlink, where he continued consulting for and managing artists throughout the entertainment industry. Drawn from Chip Rachlin's personal archive, this collection reflects a lifetime spent at the center of the music business. Featured throughout are vintage concert T-shirts, music industry sales awards, vintage concert posters—including several original Bill Graham concert posters—behind-the-scenes photographs, original documents, and other artifacts accumulated over decades in the industry. Offering direct provenance from one of the industry's most respected executives, the Chip Rachlin Collection presents collectors with a rare opportunity to acquire material assembled and preserved over a lifetime in music.
