Here we are offering a very early original handbill for a Bob Dylan/ Joan Baez tour in 1965. According to The Art of Rock Dylan wasn’t thrilled with the image and it was only used on a very limited basis. This artwork is featured in The Art of Rock plate# 1.101. The Cambridge folk singer / visual artist Eric Von Schmidt created the design. Dylan & Von Schmidt had musical history: The year prior Dylan visited Von Schmidt at his home in Florida and recorded several songs there including an early version of "Mr. Tambourine Man". One of Von Schmidt's LP's is exhibited in a pile of records on the cover of Dylan's album "Bringing It All Back Home".
