Vintage 4 1/2" tall 1984-85 OTTO cloth backstage pass for a Prince Purple Rain Concert. There are several variations.

You would think the general backstage passes would be more valuable, but retail prices are about the same on all types. No special requests please. We don't have huge quantities of any one type.

On the one side it has Pat's Boone's picture and signature embossed in the brass witha record and a pair of 50s shoes. The reverse says "Always Your Boy" "Pat Boone" which was his trademark saying. The smaller one is about an inch tall and is embossed "Always Your Boy" "Pat Boone" on one side and has a record embossed on the reverse. The brass shows age patina. This was quite the find. They are from the 1950s. They are in excellent unused condition, but show some minor scratches from getting tossed around over the years. Did you know that Pat Boone had 38 top 40 hits mostly in the late 1950s? Elvis is the only artist who charted more hits during that time!

##MUSICBP0076 - Rare 1979 Stanley Mouse Design Doobie Brothers Laminated Backstage Tour Pass
Vintage 1979 4 1/4" tall Doobie Brothers laminated backstage pass. Excellent unused condition. This pass is considered extremely desirable by collectors. It features a dog with a pot leaf in his mouth on it, says "Doobies" and was designed by artist Stanley Mouse. This was one of the very first laminated passes that had detailed artwork, and is featured in Paul Grushkin's "bible" of early rock poster art. You will never see another original one at this kind of price. They are very hard to come by. Do not confuse this with later passes that were issued by Perri with similar artwork. Those do not bear the Otto (printer) logo on the back. This is the real deal 1979 pass. Both sides pictured. Click the picture to see the complete image. I believe we have the only ones left in any quantity, so we are going to pass them on to you at this ridiculous price. These early ones have sold for $100 or more.

##MUSICBP0039 - PHISH Laminated All Access 98 Backstage Pass Picturing Planet of the Apes
Vintage 4 1/4" tall laminated OTTO All Access backstage pass from the 1998 Summer Tour. Unused old stock in great condition. These came from a roadie's personal collection. Blank backs.

In the late 1990s PHISH pictured a series of old TV and Sports Personalities on their passes. The Planet of the Apes series are just plain cool. For those not familiar, PHISH has a massive following. They are a "jam" and "improvisational" rock band that is loved by their fans. Because they don't play mainstream music, they get little mainstream radio play, but have still sold over 8 million albums, and have filled stadiums all over the country. They have a huge cult like following (people follow them around like the Grateful Dead) and their backstage passes are one of the most widely collected.

##MUSICBG0030 - 1940s Opera News Magazine

Vintage 8 3/4 - 10" tall (depending on which issue) 1940s Opera News magazine. They show some typical aging but are in nice shape. These are uncommon and often go for $5 each and up on Ebay.

Hard to tell. Opera News was founded in 1936 by the Metropolitan Opera Guild with Mrs. John DeWitt (Mary Ellis Peltz) serving as the publication's first editor. It was initially intended to be a "useful, instructive, and factual weekly newspaper of Opera in New York". Its first issue was published on 7 December 1936 and consisted of only one folded broadsheet.

##MUSICBP2008 - Grateful Dead Tour Sticker/Decal - Blacklight Wizard Wear Skull Staring out from Behind a Yin Yang
Click the picture to see a larger more detailed image. Vintage 3 1/4" square Grateful Dead sticker/decal. These are high quality art decals. This type sticks on the outside of glass or a mirror or your pocket. They are in mint condition and can still be used. They are marked "Wizard Wear copyright 1989". Jerry Garcia was called the Wizard, and so "Wizard Wear" made t-shirts and stickers called Wizard Wear. Some say the Wizard Wear artwork was the best of the underground artists. The decal features a skull learing out from behind the white side of a yin yang image. The yin yang represents the light and dark in life.  In this decal the the skull is behind the light side. Clever artwork.

These Grateful Dead stickers/decals are old tour merchandise. I found them wrapped in plastic in boxes in master cases. They came from a distributor who sold them to tour vendors. The condition is pristine and they still will work as a car decal or window/mirror sticker. We found them packed away in storage boxes dated 1992 (many are older than that) and 1995 (year Jerry Garcia died). They are high quality artist renderings of Grateful Dead themes. Back in the day, the Dead did not monitor copyrights and that sort of thing, and in fact, at one point encouraged artists to do designs. The LA times explained it well “The Grateful Dead was famously lax in enforcing it’s intellectual property rights and trademarks, allowing fans to create their own designs using the band’s expansive iconography”. Since there was no serious monitoring or much concern back then, a lot of up and coming artists got involved in designing them. This is how some of them got their starts. Some of the sticker artists who designed these stickers went on to produce official licensed works for the Grateful Dead and other famous groups. These stickers include some by now famous designers including David Opie, and others. These 1995 and older stickers are very hard to find anymore.

##MUSICBP0031 - 1980s RIcky Nelson OTTO Cloth Backstage Tour Pass

Vintage 5" tall Ricky Nelson Otto cloth Backstage Pass. This pass was used for all of the Ricky Nelson tours between 1981 and 1985. There is a blank space at the top where radio station info or pass type could be stamped. This is a very uncommon pass.


Ricky Nelson was a child star in the very popular TV series The Adventures of Ozzie and Harriet that ran from 1952 till 1966. He was in films too, but turned to a music career as he got older. Not many people realize it, but Ricky Nelson had 53 songs on the Billboard Hot 100 between 1957 and 1973. "Poor Little Fool" was the very first song to be #1 on Billboard's newly created hot 100 chart. He was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1987. 

On December 31, 1985 at the age of 45 in an airplane crash.
