Sourced at the human gate 2026-08-12 from classicposters.com, which the run could not reach headless. Added to break a five-day BG-133 repeat: the week was showing one poster as hero on 5 of 7 days while real, distinct posters for these nights existed and went unused. The 2026-08-10 run report itself flagged BG-78 and FD-76 as 'candidate anchors' for 1967 and then did not take them. BG-78 (Jim Blashfield's first in the Graham series) covers Fillmore Auditorium Aug 15-21 1967 — a seven-night run. Central image is four out-of-round shapes holding the lead acts' names.
