Our very first time offering this incredibly scarce Handbill in our auction. The Doors in 1967 at the Cheetah Club! It's historically important from an early show in the first year of the band's existence! This is a MUST for any serious collector or Doors fan in general. The documentary film "The Scene" (also known as "The Second Coming 1967 A.D.") included rare footage of this early Doors performance at the Cheetah. 

 

It goes without saying the importance of this issue is off the charts. Perhaps one of the most difficult handbills from the Cheetah Club to locate! The opening act was The Nazz. The Nazz was Alice Cooper's first band. Because of the confusion with Todd Rundgren's group of the same name they later changed their name to The Alice Cooper Band. 

 

The historic Cheetah Club was one of the hottest places to play if you were an up & coming band in the late sixties. Frank Zappa discovered Alice Cooper there in 1967 and signed him to his label. Janis Joplin and Pink Floyd also performed there. Original Pre-Concert First Printing material from the Cheetah is extremely difficult to locate so this lot represents a special opportunity!
