{"product_id":"james-taylor-staff-tour-81-badge-doc-gans","title":"James Taylor Staff Tour '81 Badge – Doc Gans","description":"\u003cp\u003eAn original Staff badge from James Taylor's Tour '81, sourced directly from the personal archive of Bill 'Doc' Gans — SHOWCO sound engineer who worked alongside some of the biggest names in rock and roll throughout the 1970s and '80s.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis large square badge is a distinct format from the laminate passes also in Doc's collection — bold black typography on a cream background, reading \"James Taylor \/ STAFF \/ Tour '81\" with a rotating clip on the back. Clean, minimal, and unmistakably of its era. Tour crew were issued multiple credential types throughout a run, and this badge represents the workhorse credential worn daily on the job.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eItem:\u003c\/strong\u003e Staff tour badge with rotating clip\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eArtist:\u003c\/strong\u003e James Taylor\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTour:\u003c\/strong\u003e Tour '81\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAccess:\u003c\/strong\u003e Staff\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 Very good; light age-appropriate wear\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\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eProceeds from this sale support music industry charities.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Showco, Ltd.
