Here is an early original Zappa handbill we have never offered in our auction until now! This specimen was designed for a run of shows at the historic Shine Hall featuring Frank Zappa and the Mothers of Invention along with Charlie Musselwhite and Sweetwater. The Mothers new record "We're Only in It for the Money" was their third studio album and had just been released 2 months prior to this event. The design on this handbill echoes the iconic album cover photos of the mothers band members. This piece is in amazing condition. Handbills are currently one of the hottest segments of the market. See our blog dated 5/18/18 for details!
