Here is an early original Zappa handbill! This specimen was designed for a run of shows at the historic Shine Hall featuring Frank Zappa and the Mothers of Invention along with Charlie Musselwhite and Sweetwater. The Mothers third studio album "We're Only in It for the Money" had just been released 2 months prior to this event. The design on this handbill echoes the iconic album cover photos of the mothers band members. This piece is in amazing condition!
