Hi,

I assume that a few of you here on IORR has the original 1978 US Tour Poster (Pointing Women), I'm sure mattleeUK have one!

Anyhow, any photos/dimensions of the original poster would be much appreciated.

Does anyone also know if the original 78 tour poster is featured at the Exhibitionism?

The original '78 poster, as well as several others, were all on display at Exhibitionism in Las Vegas.

I am pretty sure it's not in exhibitionism. They skip from 76 to 81 (from memory), I'd have to check if they borrowed mine but I am pretty sure they don't have one. I have a spare but not easy to locate, there is also a smaller one.

I once tried to locate the artist who designed it (he must be around 90 yo now) but I never managed.
I don't have the original poster but in 1994 the Stones made numbered and plate-signed lithographs of this poster. They look fantastic.

This was the exact same display they had in Vegas.

My mistake! Just checked my loan agreement too and it is mine! As are many of those pictured. The hardest by far being the Kiwi. I have doubles of most (including the Kiwi). Watch out for reprints on the Cardiff the, Tumblin Dice and the 76 (most commonly knocked off of those pictures above)

Matt I never dared to buy the 1973 posters since they are expensive and potentially reprints.
I stick to my official reprints hand signed by the artist :-)

Doc, i’m Always happy to help. The Euro isn’t expensive, Aussie, Kiwi, Cardiff and Japan a lot more. Hawaii a lot more than Euro but not crazy, never been much of a fan of it though. Kind of too busy and not clean like the others.

I have an original 73 for exchange.I got the 78 lytho but want the poster too.

JM, which 73 are you talking about ?
It's been a busy year

Matt what is the size of the 1976 European tour poster ?
I have concert posters from 76 but not the tour poster...

His name is Stanislaw Zagorski. There already was a thread about it a couple of years ago. Can't find it though.

Never seen them lined up like that, but after viewing, I think only 4 of the 18 shown are actually cool looking. The other 14 are crap, bonfire material.

Thanks for the feedback, can't wait to see some of them up close and personal at the Exhibitionism in Nashville,

Matt, is that the smaller (1978) version featured in Exhibitionism (on photo)?

1970 Euro Tour (boat & car), 1971 UK Tour (car) and 1972 Tour (plane) are my favorites with their clean and artistic look.

Have to disagree, most of these are icons in stones history, but also decent posters.

I have the original giant torn American flag Steel Wheels poster still up on a sliding closet door in one of our spare rooms - has been there since I bought it in 1989.

Understandable... coming from you...



I on the other hand think they are all fkg awesome!
Then again I actually still like The Rolling Stones very much.

I am surprised the drawing of the 72 jet flying into the city is not up there...
and neither is the jet engined eagle from 75... those are both killer posters too... lemmeseeifIfindthem



My favorite up there is probably the space station, mostly due to some personal things for me... I still have 5-6 of that one.

Still prefer the beginning of the wall. All the posters are mine until the Winterland Tumblin' Dice and then it's a split. They have the 70, 71, 72 and 75 but around the corner ranged with other stuff...

And there's this one that I bought in 1981 which I still have, though it's a bit faded and tattered from being on my wall for a few years back in the early '80s (currently in a tube in storage).



And another I bought during Steel Wheels - still have it brand new rolled up in storage:



And from Voodoo Lounge I bought this (massive one similar in size to the torn American flag Steel Wheels poster)- definitely a favorite.



None are probably worth much to anyone other than myself as they all provide priceless memories.

Rockandroll posters and rockandroll T-shirts are pretty much
the coolest funnest bestest crap any oldmankid can own... they are the BEST!

The moral is the story is buy 3... (at least 3)
one to wear/display, one to keep mint, one to trade.

Actually Hairball the Skeleton one is super desired and not so easy to find in great condition. Well done...

Even here in New Zealand the Kiwi 73 poster is very hard to find. In over 30 years of collecting, I've seen less than half a dozen. I possibly have access to a spare one currently...its framed and glued to the backing-board, is faded and has several rips - so in poor condition...but if you are desperate for one as a place holder...let me know. (I could potentially bring it to the UK in June) rcfoxy@yahoo.com Otherwise Matt can probably help with a tidier one...

Thanks Matt that's cool to know, and if I ever want to sell it I know who to contact (though I'm pretty sure you have one).

Just kidding, I'm just an amateur "collector"/fan that used to buy alot of Stones stuff, and have no intentions of selling any of it...maybe some day when I'm very old.
I remember buying and saving a ton of stuff during the Voodoo Lounge tour, and still have a few of the catalogues for mail orders...I think it was Brockum.

One of my favorite posters is another giant one of the Saint of Me single cover design that's been hanging in my studio since I bought it in 1998 (can't remember where I bought it...maybe a record store?!).
I had it laminated by a friend who used to work at a Kinkos type place - don't know if that would decrease the collectibility value or not, but I don't care as it looks amazing and will probably last forever.

Laminating a poster does drastically reduce its value, as does gluing it to a board, trimming it to fit a frame etc... but I wouldn't be worried about a poster that your only intention is to enjoy on your wall and isn't worth a great deal anyway. It no doubt looks great laminated as they are so hard to keep nice being so big (60" x 40"). It costs a bomb to frame these giant posters and I have only ever done it in my office where I have a full set of the Giant Some Girls reissue ones. The rest of my subway posters are in giant tubes, which is sad really. All the smaller stuff I keep in Top Loaders in Plan chests so I can look at them regularly without damaging them (I have 30 full draws and counting).

I love this track and it brings back memories of the only time I asked Ronnie a question at an official press conference. It was for his solo album "Not for Beginners". I asked something like:

"Keith said your new album wasn't as good as your first which obviously he played on, perhaps that was just him getting back at you for saying "Saint of Me" was your favorite track on Bridges to Babylon that he didn't play on, however what do the band think of Not for Beginners and what do you think of Goddess in the Doorway?"

To which Ronnie started his answer: "It's my mate Matt, he knows more about me than I do, you should be asking him the questions, anyway I want to see you afterwards..."
