For a brief but intense time in 1973 and \u201974 there was a move afoot to rename the Field House for the Allman Brothers Band, which had a memorable gig there on Nov. 9, 1973. The posters are evidence of this unofficial, ill-fated, but totally sincere effort. CUE, the Commission for University Entertainment, was a student organization that encouraged the campaign. Many thanks to Tim Meier of the Hancher Auditorium office for arranging for transfer of these materials to the Dept. of Special Collections and University Archives.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div id='gallery-1' class='gallery galleryid-2199 gallery-columns-3 gallery-size-thumbnail'><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon portrait'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/blog.lib.uiowa.edu\/speccoll\/2013\/06\/13\/new-evidence-confirms-1973-movement-to-rename-the-field-house-for-the-allman-brothers-band\/event-poster-1973-12-15\/'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.lib.uiowa.edu\/speccoll\/files\/2013\/06\/event-poster-1973-12-15-150x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"Hancher event poster\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.lib.uiowa.edu\/speccoll\/files\/2013\/06\/event-poster-1973-12-15-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/blog.lib.uiowa.edu\/speccoll\/files\/2013\/06\/event-poster-1973-12-15-36x36.jpg 36w, https:\/\/blog.lib.uiowa.edu\/speccoll\/files\/2013\/06\/event-poster-1973-12-15-115x115.jpg 115w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div><\/figure><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon portrait'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/blog.lib.uiowa.edu\/speccoll\/2013\/06\/13\/new-evidence-confirms-1973-movement-to-rename-the-field-house-for-the-allman-brothers-band\/event-poster-1973-10-20\/'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.lib.uiowa.edu\/speccoll\/files\/2013\/06\/event-poster-1973-10-20-150x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"Hancher event poster\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.lib.uiowa.edu\/speccoll\/files\/2013\/06\/event-poster-1973-10-20-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/blog.lib.uiowa.edu\/speccoll\/files\/2013\/06\/event-poster-1973-10-20-36x36.jpg 36w, https:\/\/blog.lib.uiowa.edu\/speccoll\/files\/2013\/06\/event-poster-1973-10-20-115x115.jpg 115w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div><\/figure><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/blog.lib.uiowa.edu\/speccoll\/2013\/06\/13\/new-evidence-confirms-1973-movement-to-rename-the-field-house-for-the-allman-brothers-band\/event-poster-1973-11-09\/'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.lib.uiowa.edu\/speccoll\/files\/2013\/06\/event-poster-1973-11-09-150x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"Allman Brothers event poster\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.lib.uiowa.edu\/speccoll\/files\/2013\/06\/event-poster-1973-11-09-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/blog.lib.uiowa.edu\/speccoll\/files\/2013\/06\/event-poster-1973-11-09-36x36.jpg 36w, https:\/\/blog.lib.uiowa.edu\/speccoll\/files\/2013\/06\/event-poster-1973-11-09-115x115.jpg 115w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div><\/figure>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>New at the UI Archives: 1970s-era posters for events at Hancher Auditorium, the Iowa Memorial Union and the UI Fieldhouse.
