Vinnie Paul Estate Auctions Decades of Personal Memorabilia

Historical online auction event will feature rare music memorabilia, including early day Pantera, Damageplan and Hellyeah collectibles as well as personal items from the private collection of Vinnie Paul. 


Houston, TX - May 23, 2022:  Backstage Auctions is proud to present a truly historical online auction event featuring the private and personal collection of legendary metal artist and drummer Vinnie Paul. “The collection is a true testament to Vinnie’s legacy and shows his passion for music, sports and living life to the fullest” explains Backstage Auctions founder Jacques van Gool. “It is the ultimate Vinnie Paul celebration”.

 

With nearly 700 auction lots, the online auction features a collection that spans four decades of


mind-bending mementos from his years with Pantera, Damageplan and Hellyeah.  Among the many highlights are several drum kits – including the kit he played last, a collection of guitars, including a vintage Dimebag Darrell Washburn, custom slot machines, every imaginable record award, clothing, artwork, autographed items, home furnishings, photos, posters, and just about every laminated pass ever issued to Vinnie Paul. 

 

Additionally, Vinnie was a huge hockey, football, and baseball fan, leaving behind a massive collection of sports memorabilia with a heavy emphasis on his hometown heroes: The Dallas Stars, The Dallas Cowboys and The Texas Rangers. Highlight pieces include an array of autographed collectibles, seats from the original Dallas Cowboys stadium, hockey sticks, helmets, and a massive amount of jerseys. 

 

“Vinnie Paul is one of the most prolific and quintessential drummers in Metal history. Pantera was – and still is – a torch bearing giant with an unparalleled footprint in the broad universe of everything hard and heavy, opening the doors for generations of head-banging, axe-wielding and skin-pounding musicians,” comments Jacques van Gool of Backstage Auctions. “They have been rightfully credited as the inventors of groove-metal, with Vinnie Paul as the master bricklayer. His drumming, and overall contribution to the genre, has left a lasting mark and we are proud and extremely honored to have been selected by the Vinnie Paul estate to offer his massive collection of memorabilia to his dedicated worldwide legion of fans.”
