The resulting file, as you found, is not valid PostScript; it is  
missing some header information.  You didn't say what system you were  
using, but on a NeXT you can use

	Display["!psfix >file.ps",graphics]

to produce a valid PostScript file "file.ps".  I think the psfix  
filter is a standard part of all Unix-based Mathematica  
implementations.
