Scarce set of early Sex Pistols signatures, including: the torn left side of a promo poster for an Acne Rabble concert at the Rock Garden in Middlesborough on August 26, 1977, 6.25 x 11.75, signed in black ballpoint, "Sid" and "Paul Cook"; and an off-white 6.5 x 5 trimmed sheet signed in blue ballpoint, "Steve Jones," "Paul Cook," and "John Rotten." In overall very good condition, with overall creasing and folds to both sheets.
In the summer of 1977, the Sex Pistols opted to assuage some of the infamy surrounding their live shows by embarking on a brief set of dates around the UK under fake names, a decision that later resulted in what has come to be known as the S.P.O.T.S. tour, an acronym that stands for 'Sex Pistols On Tour Secretly.' The band played six dates on the tour and were billed differently in each of the six locations—Lafayette Club, Wolverhampton (S.P.O.T.S.); Outlook Club, Doncaster (Tax Exiles); Penthouse, Scarborough (Special Guest); Rock Garden, Middlesborough (Acne Rabble); Woods Centre, Plymouth (The Hamsters), and Winter Gardens, Penzance (A Mystery Band of International Repute).
