Presenting the FIRST poster featuring The Carpenters to EVER appear in our auction! The Carpenters, consisting of siblings Karen and Richard Carpenter, were an iconic American music duo renowned for their smooth harmonies, catchy melodies, and Karen's distinctive contralto vocals. Throughout the 1970s, The Carpenters churned out a string of chart-topping singles, including "We've Only Just Begun," "Rainy Days and Mondays," "Top of the World," and "Yesterday Once More." Their music often explored themes of love, longing, and nostalgia, resonating deeply with audiences worldwide. This cardboard poster announced the duo's appearance at the Miller Auditorium at Western Michigan University on October 25th, 1973. This is a RARE issue that is incredibly unlikely to appear in our auction again anytime soon!
