Description

MacLean's 1970 New Year's Eve poster recalled her original effort of December, 1967 and was more 60's in artistic style than recent David Singer offerings. Traditional symbols of peace and love were obvious, but the poster was more light-show than stained glass window in effect and advertised different billings at the Fillmore West and Winterland for the evening. A few things changed in the New Year's Eve programs: the '70 12-hour marathon commenced earlier, at 8 p.m., and the ticket prices were 25% higher than those of '67.

Before the dawn of computers and bar codes, Bill Graham Presents printed their own concert tickets, many of which 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 represent a bygone era of extended, one-venue engagements by major performers. So that Bill could reconcile sales each night, patrons purchased tickets at the venue box office and handed them right back over at the door, thus ending up in the archive as mint condition concert tickets. We may occasionally and in select cases offer for sale one-of-a-kind, extremely rare and valuable concert tickets in less than mint condition.
