Presenting the FIRST original first printing of this double sided handbill to appear in our auction!

It was the Doors FIRST shows in the UK!

 

The handbill promotes the Doors on the front and the Airplane on the reverse. The shows were promoted by the London underground psych nightclub Middle Earth.
