COOPER&BURNETT Posted November 19, 2012 Report Share Posted November 19, 2012 Here's a pretty rare MIAMI VICE second season GALA INVITATION!This invitation is from SEPTEMBER 14th, 1985 (The day after shooting "JUNK LOVE")The Gala was to benifit PARTNERS FOR YOUTH, a volunteer program to help underprivileged youth in South Florida. Cast and Crew both were at the event, as were other TV and Movie stars.Here's the outside of the invitation.You can't tell from my photo scan, but the "MIAMI VICE" logo seems to be silk screened on the cover of the shiny invite, and it's raised a bit enough that you can feel each letter by touching it. Invitations are much rarer than say, programs, as invitations are usually discarded. This is rare. We may never see another one.ANOTHER MIAMIVICEONLINE.COM EXCLUSIVE!

COOPER&BURNETT Posted November 20, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 20, 2012 Here's the front and back of the GALA INVITATION opened up(Sometimes the Invitation looks dirty in the scans. It's not. I'm guessing that the invite is so glossy, that any ripple in the invite creates some sort of lighting shadow (some pictures make it look pinkish, but it's not, it's solid white, and not dirty. If I took a shot with my camera, instead of scanning it, it most likely would look "cleaner".) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not many would know this happened, where it was held, or what they ate, or did at the event without this piece of history telling us what happened.I'm in contact with yet another crew member, and am praying that he would be willing to part with some items that I don't have to continue to protect, and preserve them for all time. He seems really nice, so my fingers are crossed that he would be willing to part with some items.Thank you BluePearl, you never disapoint with your kind comments!

I appreciate your kind words. I know this is hard to imagine, but I do work really hard behind the scenes to get these items to share with everyone. I have more items to post, and am still trying to procure more for the preservation and education of MIAMI VICE, and TV history fans the world over.

Absolutely amazing. :thumbsup:Like alleycat wrote, your house/appartement must be ultimative Vice-museum .... all your pictures, clothes and all these rare stuff. Wow![/quote']It didn't start off as being a Museum, it just ended up being one! I feel an obligation of taking care of these items, and sharing the existance of them with those who follow, and love MIAMI VICE. It's part of the iconic show's history, and if someone doesn't catalog these items, the details could get lost to history as to what these items are. I feel I'm the one to do this. :prost: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
