1975 Tour of the Americas Rolling Stones ticket from the LA Forum. Reproduction or error?

I'm concerned that a 1975 Rolling Stones ticket for the LA Forum I bought on eBay is a reproduction. My cause for concern is that the back is blank although every single ticket I've seen from the Forum from that era has advertising or some other printing filling the backside of the ticket such as an advertisement for a car dealership or pizzeria, serial number, refund policy, ticket bearer's rights, etc. When I contacted the seller he replied with a photo of a 1969 Rolling Stones ticket from the Forum, also with a blank back, which sold for $249.00 years ago on eBay. I searched eBay and the internet for an hour or so and couldn't find another blank backed LA Forum ticket. I contacted PSA and received an automated reply that it would take 5-7 business days to address my question. Thanks in advance for any information.

    Well by 1975 the Ticketron/TM stock have all the legal mumbo jumbo on the back.... So I'm going to assume you have a Forum Box Office issued stub. The only thing I could think of is that they got a bad batch where the printer forgot to print the back and Box Office decided to still use it in certain situations, like maybe day of sales or will calls.

    Thanks for the reply. I've exhausted every source I can think of for a definitive answer but aside from yours there's been a dearth of explanations. Attached is a 1972 stub I just bought on eBay for the Rolling Stones / Stevie Wonder concert at The Forum in 1972.

    I wasn't paying close enough attention, I thought you posted bigger pics of the 1969 ticket. On your 1975 I see NO perforations on the back to rip off.... I see lines on the front, but are those printed or perforations... If they are printed then you have an obvious xeroxed turd!
