Presenting the first example of this rare handbill to ever appear in our auction! This eye appealing original 1967 handbill is from the only live performance Hugh Masekela did at the historic Fillmore. Often referred to as The Father of South African Jazz, Hugh Masekela was a genius composer as well as a talented trumpet trombone and flugelhorn player. During his long successful career he was nominated for a Grammy Award three times. This early handbill is from the same era his pop jazz hit Up Up and Away was released. This gig date falls in between the dates for the BG-50 and BG-51 posters' concert dates at the Fillmore Auditorium.
Condition: light handling bends on backside not visible from front.
