Comments:***A very, very rare set, that would look great when displayed, but even better when paired with a "Tommy" movie poster***
Ken Russell's psychedelic rock opera Tommy was based on the seminal album by 70s band The Who. Members Pete Townshend, John Entwistle, and the late Keith Moon play support to a shaggy-haired Roger Daltrey in the role of a blind, deaf, and dumb pinball champion who becomes the figurehead of a religious cult. This kitsch cult classic is perhaps best described as Jesus Christ Superstar on acid.
