Description

Orr tipped his hat to Griffin, Mouse and Kelley for inspiration in BG267. The Allman brothers were gaining a following, and Orr, who hadn't seen the band and passed on this concert, was given a photograph of Duane Allman for this sketch. Orr was astounded that concert posters provided an opportunity to draw female frontal nudity without suffering public disapproval.

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.
