A rare, original tabletop card from the famed Stork Club in New York City. From the original Stork Club, this tabletop card was obtained by a dinner guest on a magical night late in 1979 when she had the incredible luck of having dinner at the Stork Club with The Who, who were staying at the Hotel Navarro in New York City, their home base when they were on tour. They would stay at the hotel, which was next door to the Stork Club, (you could get to the Stork Club through a passageway in the hotel), then fly out to their nearby concerts from there. They were joined that night by Bruce Springsteen, who stopped by the table, a beer in each pocket, and sat down with them. This evening also bears historical significance since it was just before the Who's infamous concert in Cincinnati where the tragic stampede took place. The companion of the person who obtained this tabletop card spent time with the band before and after the stampede and vividly remembers their anguish at what happened. The card shows some wear but is in overall very good condition. Comes with a letter of provenance form the person who originally obtained it and a Gotta Have Rock & Roll Certificate of Authenticity.
