Concert Posters

[Someday]

Does anyone have pictures of concert posters, or know if posters can be obtained (original or reprints)?

They never seem to appear and I have scoured the net many times ...

The closest I came was watching 'The Story of Musicals' on BBC4 here in the UK recently. During a section on the mid 70s, some film footage was shown of one of the London theatres. In the background was a London bus, complete with The Carpenters at the Palladium plastered all over it!

Hi Someday,

Here is a link to a poster on sale from teh Horizon 1975 Tour - wow its expensive though at £5400

http://www.amazon.co.uk/Carpenters-Horizon-CONCERT-POSTER-GERMANY/dp/B00690BQ1W

There are a few reprints on ebay at a much more reasonable price

Thanks, that German one is interesting. I might contact the London Palladium and ask if there's anything in the archive ...

Or maybe consider a 'replica' gold record in lieu of an affordable poster - note it's a "best offer" listing and it appears they have taken $60 offers for others...

Very recently I was able to purchase a cardboard 22" by 28" concert Poster from Canada. It advertises the 1976 concert in Toronto.
I will try to get an image uploaded if anyone is interested.
Basically, it has the Carpenters Logo on top in orange, plus a photo of K&R from AKOH sessions (the pic from the cover
of the 1976 tourbook), along with dates and venue.
It was not cheap ($75 is not cheap to me, anyway.).But, it is unique.
Apparently, concert posters are extremely difficult to locate.
I search for them whenever I remember to do so!

Love to see it!
