Here we have a striking black and white advertisement for a benefit concert held at the Fillmore Auditorium in 1966. Along with a then newly formed Jefferson Airplane the show also featured The Great Society The Wildflower Big Mama Thornton Elvin Jones and a line-up of jazz greats that included Jon Hendricks and actor / activist Garry Goodrow as the emcee. This event was held to benefit the jazz club known as the “Both/And”. This rare specimen is 100% Original with no restoration of any kind!
