Description

Bill Graham Presents promoter pass stock, hand-stamped and given to bands, crew, family and associates.

This item was part of Bill Graham's personal collection and shows some damage from the May 7, 1985 firebombing of his San Francisco office. The attack stemmed from Graham's open and honest criticism of President Reagan's visit to Bitburg Cemetery published in the San Francisco Chronicle.

The backstage is a fortress, each inner door demanding a further credential of access. Also known as silkies or satins, backstage passes were the first created insignia of such privilege. WV's collection of passes carry the credentials to get one from the fan-club after-show all the way to center-stage.
