INSIDER BILL GRAHAM HISTORY! This ultra rare vintage cotton Sport T-Shirt was produced in limited quantities as a surprise to Bill by the staff at Cellar Door Productions circa 1971. Everyone who worked at Cellar Door got one of these shirts and when Graham arrived at the venue everyone had the picture of him with a cigar on their shirts. 

 

This sport shirt was acquired directly from a staff member of Cellar Door! To add to the surprise gag the Bill Graham Presents text on the back credits everything (Produced Staged Tap Dancing) to Bill Graham! The reverse of the shirt also says: "In association with Dave Furano & Jack Boyle". Dave Furano was the second in command of Bill Graham Presents at the time and Jack Boyle was head of Cellar Door Productions. There are your standard run of the mill music shirts and then there is THIS! A true authentic piece of history with a splash of humor!
