This calendar handbill for April and May 1968 at the Boston Tea Party boasted some of the most incredible acts of the era including The Yardbirds, B.B. King, Procol Harum, Traffic, and Blue Cheer! The Boston Tea Party venue is one of those pockets of poster collecting that frustrate collectors and dealers alike. The print runs were minuscule so the survival rates are painfully low. The hottest pieces were absorbed into top collections decades ago and rarely come up for sale. There is no official cataloging reference material for the venue that we are aware of. 

 

Condition Details: hard center crease, notes on reverse and fold creases
