YES, BILL GRAHAM'S NAME IS SPELLED CORRECTLY AND IF YOU LOOK IN ERIC KING'S BOOK, YOU'LL READ THAT THE INCORRECT SPELLING OF GRAHAM HAPPENED ON THE POSTER, NOT THE POSTCARD { I HAD TO USE A MAGNIFYING GLASS TO SEE THAT }. THERE IS NO BILL GRAHAM AT ALL PRINTED ON ANY OF THE TICKETS. ALSO UNLIKE THE POSTER FOR THESE CONCERTS, THERE IS NO MENTION AT ALL IN ERIC KING'S BOOK ABOUT THE POSTCARD OR TICKETS EVER BEING RE-PRINTED.
SO WHAT ARE ARTIST'S PROOFS? I'M SURE THAT YOU PROBABLY ALREADY KNOW IF YOU'RE A COLLECTOR LOOKING AT THIS AD, BUT I'LL WASTE SOME TIME TELLING YOU ANYWAY. ARTIST'S OR PRINTER'S PROOFS ARE THE FIRST PRINTINGS OF THE ITEMS GIVEN TO THE ARTIST TO CHECK OUT FOR QUALITY AND CONTENT. ONLY A FEW ARE MADE AND IF THE ARTIST LIKES WHAT HE SEES HE TELLS THE PRINTER TO DO THE RUN. NEEDLESS TO SAY THAT THESE WOULD BE FAR MORE RARE THAN THE ACTUAL PRINTED ITEMS.
NONE OF THESE ITEMS HAVE ANY CREASES OR RIPS. THEY ARE ALL PRINTED ON WHAT I GUESS WOULD BE CARD STOCK TYPE OF PAPER AND HAVE A LITTLE YELLOWING IN SOME OF THE WHITE AREAS ON THE BACK. THE POSTCARD HAS SOME INK THAT HAD BLED INTO THE BACK IN THE AREAS WHERE THE 2 WORLD GLOBES ARE LOCATED ON THE OTHER SIDE. THE THURSDAY TICKET AS SOME YELLOWING SPOTS AND A YELLOWING SMALL SQUARE WHERE THERE MIGHT HAVE BEEN A PIECE OF TAPE AT ONE TIME ON THE BACK? NO TAPE OR GLUE RESIDUE. THE FRIDAY TICKET HAS BLUE INK IN THE FORM OF MOST OF THE IMAGE THAT HAS BLED THRU ON THE BACK. THE SATURDAY TICKET ONLY HAS THE HAND AND 2 GLOBE IMAGES OF BLUE INK HAT BLED THRU TO THE BACK. THE PHOTOS THAT I'VE PROVIDED CAN BE ENLARGED SO YOU CAN TAKE A CLOSER LOOK AT WHAT I HAD JUST DESCRIBED.
OTHER GREAT ARTISTS OF THAT TIME INCLUDE THE LEGENDARY RICK GRIFFIN, WES WILSON, RANDY TUTEN, ALTON KELLY, GARY GRIMSHAW AND VICTOR MOSCOSO.
