Bruce Springsteen exhibit at Constitution Center opening today
Fender Esquire Guitar
Why it's cool: Except for Paul McCartney's violin-shaped Hofner bass, the ax Bruce brandished on the cover of the "Born to Run" LP is about as iconic as any instrument can be. Note: The guitar will not be added to the collection until sometime next week.
Communion photo
Why it's cool: This is a great reminder that Springsteen wasn't born a global superstar but an everyday, walking-around Catholic kid with a fairly typical working-class upbringing.
'70s Main Point poster
Why it's cool: Of the thousands of gigs Bruce has done, few were more crucial to local Springsteen legend than the handful of early- and mid-'70s dates he did at the beloved Bryn Mawr coffeehouse. Bonus: The same poster also lists shows by Jimmy Buffett and Hall & Oates!
1972 Columbia Records audition tapes
Why it's cool: The tunes on these reel-to-reel tapes (including "Mary Queen of Arkansas," "It's Hard to Be a Saint in the City," "Growin' Up" and "Does This Bus Stop at 82nd Street?") are where the Springsteen story really begins to take shape. Just imagine how things might have gone if, rather than envisioning the 23-year-old singer-songwriter as the next Bob Dylan, legendary music biz talent scout John Hammond had said something like, "Thanks, Bruce. Don't call us, we'll call you."
