These are never-before-seen 5"x7" B&W photos of Buddy Holly taken in one of the photo booths located
at Grand Central Station in New York on January 20, 1959. They were on their way to Chicago and the start of the Winter
Dance Party tour in which Buddy Holly, Ritchie Valens, and the Big Bopper would take that ill-fated airplane trip. Buddy had
hired his friend Waylon to play bass on that tour, and Waylon gave up his airplane seat to the Big Bopper.
These are the last three pictures of Buddy Holly from that ill-fated tour.
