From Jerry Digney #1

I bought this original poster and am having it refurbished; Murray Poster Printing (now defunct) out of NYC printed it--i noticed that Murray posters vintage 60s of Dylan Elvis and Rolling Stones shows are going for as much as $5,000. MacArthur Stadium, torn down in the 90s, was a ballpark in Syracuse so this must be from the late 50s when RBBB played occasional open air dates?

The advertised date was played in 1957, the first year after the end of the under-canvas era. Good effort by a PR person to suggest how the poster might have great dollar value but I'm sure you realize the value of those other posters is based on how much society values the importance of the performer. But at least for the comparatively small number of us blog followers, this poster is priceless.

For anyone in or near the Rochester, New York area...As part of the Rochester Red Wings' (Rochester's minor leaugue baseball team) fifteenth anniversary at Frontier Field, the Big Apple Circus will bring their newest edition "Havin' A Ball" to Rochester and will perform at the Red Wings ballpark on Friday evening July 15.

Jerry I can't imagine that your

litigation would be much of an

incentive to improve the quality

of the workmanship
