$175.00 – $625.00

There’s a riot going on! U.S. Tour Manager Bob Bonis captured this moment in time. Here is Keith Richards, playing his Gibson Firebird MK VII Reverse guitar at the Rolling Stones’ afternoon concert at Ratcliffe Stadium in Fresno, California on May 22, 1965. He looks truly amused as a group of teenage girls, who have broken free from the stands, are subdued by police, some in riot helmets. The Stones came on the field in an armored car with a Rolling Stones sign taped on the side. Bob had booked the car aware of the potential for a “riot” at any Stones show. The Byrds were their opening act at this show, which took place just 15 days before the release of their song “(I Can’t Get No) Satisfaction”- The song that would change their career and become their signature song. Less than 5,000 tickets were sold for this show at the football stadium. After “Satisfaction” rocked to the top of the charts, the Rolling Stones would sell out arenas and much larger venues on the following tours.

As an edition sells down, the price will increase. Once an edition sells out, that edition will never be reprinted!

Product Description

ABOUT THE PHOTOGRAPHS:
This photograph was taken by Bob Bonis, who was the U.S. Tour Manager for both The Beatles and the Rolling Stones from 1964 through 1966. This is a Limited Edition fine art photograph, derived from the original negative or slide, and is printed on professional grade Fujicolor Crystal Archive paper by the master printers at Duggal Visual Solutions in New York. Thanks to his unequaled access and gifted eye for composition, Bob Bonis captured thousands of unguarded, candid and iconic photographs of the two most important groups in the history of popular music. The majority of these images have never been seen or published and most are available here as Limited Edition fine art prints for the FIRST TIME!

SIZES / EDITIONS:
This photograph is currently being made available in three sizes and editions as follows:

  • 11” x 14” print (the image size is 8” x 12” plus a white border) in a hand-numbered edition of only 250 prints
  • 16” x 20” print (the image size is 12” x 18” plus a white border) in a hand-numbered edition of only 75 prints

ONCE AN EDITION SELLS OUT IT WILL NEVER BE REPRINTED!

QUANTITY AVAILABLE:
With Limited Edition prints and photographs the price typically increases as the edition sells down. After 20% of an edition sells the price will increase. After the next 20% sells the price will increase again and so on, until the edition sells out completely. To keep things clear we are only listing the number of prints that are available in a particular edition at a particular price. When you have selected a size/edition and it says that (whatever number it says above) are available, it means that number of prints remain available at that price. When those prints have sold we will list the next group of prints of that edition at the next price, and so on, until the edition has sold out completely. By buying your print now, rather than waiting, you will get both the lowest print number available in that edition AND the lowest price! So don’t hesitate or the price may go up – or the edition may sell out.

SHIPPING TIME:
