Description

David Singer and photographer Jim Marshall designed one Aretha Franklin poster that was used for concerts at two different venues. BG272-A advertised the Diva's one-show-only performance at the Century Plaza Hotel in L.A. on February 27, 1971. The next weekend, Franklin plus the entire billing from the L.A. gig appeared at the Fillmore West for a three night engagement.

Bill Graham Presents printed its own concert tickets in the days before computers and bar codes, and many of these tickets are now considered exceptional works of art in their own right. Small facsimiles or derivations of the show's promotional posters, they were typically color-coded to indicate multi-night engagements, and matched sets of these concert tickets tell the story of a bygone era when major performers played extended, single-venue engagements. Virtually all of our concert tickets are in mint condition; however, we may in select cases offer one-of-a-kind, extremely rare and valuable concert tickets in less than mint condition.
