Rolling Stones (7) Signed 1964 American Tour Cash Advance Receipts - Complete Band, Andrew Loog Oldham, and Ian Stewart Seven original 6.25 x 3 cash advance receipts from the Rolling Stones’ second American tour of 1964, each filled out as money received from U.S. tour manager Bob Bonis and individually signed by the recipient: Brian Jones ($50 on November 16th), Mick Jagger ($50 on November 10th), Keith Richards ($100 on November 15th), Charlie Watts ($100 on November 6th), and Bill Wyman ($50 on November 9th). Also contains receipts signed by manager Andrew Loog Oldham ($50 on November 9th) and Ian Stewart ($200 on November 8th). The receipts are affixed to the front and back of a black 10.75 x 13.75 mounting sheet. In overall fine condition, with some light creasing and stains, and paper loss to the left edge of the Richards and Jagger receipts. The Rolling Stones' second American tour ran from October 24 to November 15, 1964, supporting their newly released U.S. album 12 X 5 and including the band's first appearance on The Ed Sullivan Show on October 25th. Bob Bonis served as the tour's U.S. tour manager, a role he held for the Beatles' three American tours and the Stones' first five American visits between 1964 and 1966; an amateur photographer as well, Bonis carried a Leica M3 throughout these tours and left behind an archive of roughly 3,500 images of both bands on the road, most never published in his lifetime. During the period these receipts cover, the band paused in Chicago on November 8th to record additional material at Chess Studios, including a new version of ‘Time Is on My Side,’ before closing out the tour with first-time stops in Milwaukee, Fort Wayne, Dayton, Louisville, and Chicago. Brian Jones missed all of these closing dates except the final Chicago show due to bronchitis and exhaustion, which may account for his advance being dated a day later than his bandmates'.
