This rare original concert poster advertised The J. Geils Blues Band for a three-night run at the Boston Tea Party in November 1968. This is the FIRST example of this rare poster to appear in our auction! These performances occurred early in the band's career, before they broke out nationally as the J. Geils Band. 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.
Condition: Heavy crease, handling.
