The photo backdrop of Bogus Slogan Poster #72 depicts another bad moment for Perry Mason foil, Hamilton Burger (William Talisman). In nearly every episode, as the prosecuting attorney, he would be exposed as an authority figure rushing to judgment.
This lack of foresight (doesn't anyone read through their scripts) is very apropo for the concert promoters PEsan Fabrication, pyt. Trying to enter the entertainment production business in America, their corporate officers sought out Amusements Diversified, Inc. This concert (BS poster #72), at Madres in New Orleans, paid out very well, but PEsan didn't stay with a co-producer for very long.
Seeking the immediate success of underwriting a big American tour, PEsan Fabrication, pty. signed the super group, Anti-Puppy Cream, to a six month American tour. When the A-PC's lead guitartist was found dead under suspicious circumstances in a North Las Vegas motel room, investigators found over 65 unique fingerprints. Every one interviewed claimed that they were not in the room at the time of the death. The coroner's conclusion, that the deceased, already inebriated, drowned while chugging a beer, made tabloid TV.
Lawyers for the band's creditors quickly set up shop. Eventually PEsan was dragged into the legal brawl because of a contract provision which would have allowed the band members a "credit line" during the tour. Declaring company bankrupcy was no solution, as the corporate officers had tried to enrich themselves by placing personal rewards into the final tour contract. Now, no one was in a rush. With appeals, litigation continued on for over seven years.
