Item Description
14x21" by "Colby Poster Printing Co." Advertising a concert at "Kabuki" in San Francisco on "Thur. Nov. 10." Additional text of note at bottom center "R.E.M. & Let's Active Recordings Available On I.R.S. Records & Tapes." Three staple holes in field along left side and an edge indentation just above the bottom left corner. Otherwise only light handling. VF. R.E.M. was touring on their first full length album 'Murmur.' Despite massive critical acclaim the album only sold around 20,000 units by the end of '83 and wouldn't be certified Gold until 1991. Lack of sales didn't prevent the album from finding it's way to right ears which helped cement it's place as a milestone record in American music.
