This lot features a scarce relic from early Allman Brother's history. This 1971 concert handbill promotes the band headlining "The Super Blues Jam festival" staged at the Civic Center in Philadelphia, PA. Joining them on stage were blues guitar heroes Buddy Guy & Luther Allison, plus a very special appearance from a young Bonnie Raitt who had yet to release her first album.

Duane Allman, the bands founder and slide guitar master met his tragic demise just a few months after this show. The band at this time were enjoying mass critical acclaim following the release of the "At Fillmore East Album". Posters and handbills from Duane's tenure are ultra scarce and have achieved world record results in our auction. This past June we sold a 1971 Allman Brothers Charlotte, NC poster printed by Globe Posters for $26,400.00
