The same fuel gauge motif appears on the satin backstage pass also in Doc's collection. The button shows significant age: heavy oxidation on the pin back, surface wear and patina consistent with nearly 50 years. A companion piece to one of the most celebrated live albums in rock history.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eItem:\u003c\/strong\u003e Vintage pin-back button\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eArtist:\u003c\/strong\u003e Jackson Browne\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTour:\u003c\/strong\u003e Running on Empty Tour 1978\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDesign:\u003c\/strong\u003e Fuel gauge graphic\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSound Engineer:\u003c\/strong\u003e Bill 'Doc' Gans\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSource:\u003c\/strong\u003e Bill 'Doc' Gans personal archive\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCondition:\u003c\/strong\u003e Heavy age-related wear — oxidized pin back, surface patina; rusty on reverse\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProvenance:\u003c\/strong\u003e From the SHOWCO Archives — the ONLY official source for authenticated SHOWCO ephemera\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eProceeds from this sale support music industry charities.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Showco, Ltd.
