Another FIRST TIMER in our auction! We don't often see Cardboard Handbills surface in our auctions so this piece is rather unique. This Sonny & Cher concert in Houston happened during the peak of their career in 1965. The duo in love had just released their first album “Look at Us” on Atco Records that summer. The album contained the number one single "I Got You Babe" which launched them into stardom across the globe! How few of these vintage original cardboard handbills could still exist today? Super scarce and 100% Original with no restoration! It’s doubtful we’ll see another one of these any time soon in ANY condition!
