We are pleased to offer this beautiful and very rare Motown handbill for the FIRST TIME in our auction! Diana Ross is quoted as saying “I will never forget the first time we worked at the Copacabana. I did our makeup and hair and this was the first time we ever signed autographs. I stood there in amazement holding a piece of paper that someone had asked me to sign knowing for certain that life had changed.” Although The Supremes had already performed internationally the group’s legendary performances at the Copacabana in New York were more than just your run-of-the-mill gigs. These would become defining moments for The Supremes and arguably a series of defining moments for Motown Records. In a way they MADE the record company. Very few of these original handbills from the famous Copacabana Club has survived in ANY condition! Bid now and don't let this one get away!
