Three original items from the Rolling Stones’ 1966 UK tour: an official “Rolling Stones 66” tour program, a handbill, and a ticket stub, the latter both for the band’s October 2, 1966, appearance at the Gaumont Theatre in Ipswich. The program, 8 x 10.25, features extensive photographs and material on the Rolling Stones, including a message from Mick Jagger, Brian Jones, Keith Richards, Charlie Watts, and Bill Wyman, “A Biography” on Charlie Watts, and features on supporting acts like The Yardbirds and Ike & Tina Turner. The orange handbill, 9 x 5.75, advertises two performances, with a bill featuring the Rolling Stones, Ike & Tina Turner, the Yardbirds, Peter Jay & The New Jaywalkers, and more. The blue ticket stub, 2.5 x 2.5, was issued for the second performance at 8 p.m. In overall fine condition, with light handling wear, intersecting folds to the handbill, and creasing to the ticket stub.
The Rolling Stones' 1966 British tour ran from September 23rd to October 9th, promoting their newly released single ‘Have You Seen Your Mother, Baby, Standing in the Shadow?,’ and featured a bill that also included Ike & Tina Turner, Peter Jay and the New Jaywalkers, and the Yardbirds. The Yardbirds' presence on the tour is notable in its own right: by the fall of 1966 the group briefly featured both Jeff Beck and Jimmy Page on guitar, a short-lived dual-lead lineup that had only come together that summer, before Beck's departure later that fall brought it to an end. The Ipswich date fell roughly two-thirds of the way through the tour's twelve stops, with the Gaumont Theatre hosting two shows that evening as the tour worked its way through the English Midlands and south coast toward its closing date in Southampton.
