Rare Authentic'72 David Bowie &Spiders Fisher Theatre Concert Handbill 1st ed
I LOVE this interesting piece as a Bowie Fan and collector, but it needs to be framed and find a new home. This concert handbill was created for the show BOWIE gave at the Fisher Theater in Detroit MI, on October 8, 1972. This is the 1st printing as the handbill was quickly reprinted with the SPIDERS FROM MARS because it only read & the Spiders. Legend is that only a few of these handbills were distributed when Bowie changed the name of his band from “the Spiders” to “the Spiders from Mars”. The handbills were then reprinted with the full name. I can believe that Bowie took artistic license or the promoters wanted the change. These first versions may have still been at the printer and not fully handed out on the street. (I have never seen the second printing; maybe it was too late to promote at that point). I have seen white paper handbills and those might be reprints or paper that has not aged. Size is 5.75 x 11.25 (14×29 cm). This is considered an. Extra-large concert handbill or small poster promoting David Bowie & the Spiders from Mars. Presented by Gemini and Wabx. From the Ziggy Stardust tour in 1972, (see note about David’s style change below). The art was created by Donnie Dope, a. Don Forsythe, who also designed other great pieces for the Grande Ballroom. This illustration was from a photograph from Bowie’s Hunky Dory “Changes” period. There is supposed to be “hidden” items in the background art and stippling. This concert at the Fisher Theater in Detroit was the last show Russ Gibb ever promoted. By the time the concert happened, Bowie had drastically changed his appearance and stage persona so the image of him on the handbill is slightly outdated compared more folksy when compared to his popular and legendary Ziggy Stardust look. If you are an early fan… You will love this. Maybe you even went to this concert! Condition: Near-Mint, with normal age wear, (see photos) which is minimal. Stock is heavier than paper and is cream colored and has 1 color, brown ink for the artwork. I marked the places so you can see. The stains are not that noticeable and no corner is dog eared. It is also not warped. It has always been flat, no push pin holes. I will package the artwork flat and not roll it up. NO mold or smoke smell. Take advantage as a Bowie Fan and own a piece of history! Thank you for looking.
