This is the FIRST time this EXTREMELY RARE vintage original concert poster is appearing in our auction! It advertised Elton John performing at the Notre Dame Athletic & Convocation Center in South Bend, Indiana on May 3rd 1972. This show occurred the same month he released the hit record Honky Chateau, one of John's most beloved albums that contained the song Rocket Man. This is featured lot that should not be overlooked! We have never seen another one of these 1972 "tour blank" style posters for this South Bend Indiana concert (venue and date written at the bottom). There was another poster produced for this show with a different image that was more widely distributed, but this unique hand-written example is in a league of it's own! Elton John is one of the most respected and colorful performers of all time. Incredible piano playing, incredible voice, he's got it all. He just recently bid farewell to live performances. Thank you for the songs, Elton.
