The original/first print poster measures 19 3/4" x 28 1/2". The
background color of this poster is not a true black. It has a
noticeably grayish/blue tint to it. The lettering at the bottom
right is a medium red (as is the outer edge of the oval that surrounds the
concert dates and venue). There are two "strips" that run diagonally
into the venue information from the inner image of the poster. On
this poster, the original, they are mostly green. In addition, the
small mountain range at the opposite end of the "strips" (left hand side
of the poster) is purple.
This poster was bootlegged, an unauthorized reprint. The bootleg
poster measures 19 3/4" x 28 1/4". The background color of
this poster is a true black. The lettering at the bottom, which is
medium red on the original, is very washed out, looks like a dull
pinkish/brown on the bootleg. The two "strips" that run diagonally
into the venue information have very little green in them, and the
mountain range at the opposite end of the "strips" is black, not purple.
Both posters are printed on very similar paper stocks. The color
differences are the best way to distinguish an original from the boot.
In addition, the boots we have seen are 1/4" shorter. That may or
may not be the case on all of them.
