Here we have a RARE handbill, a period piece from an anti-war rally in New York in December 1969. The event titled "Freak the Army", featured Pete Seeger, Yippie revolutionary Abbie Hoffman, Jimmy Collier, Barbara Dane, Burning City Theatre, and Pageant Players. It was organized in opposition to the Vietnam War and held at the Manhattan Center in New York City. The war had been in full swing for several years at this point and was a focal point of the counterculture movement. This handbill is 100% original with no restoration!
