This is the first CGC graded example of this handbill to appear in our auction! If you are just dipping your toe into this marketplace this lot merits your strong consideration. This handbill promotes a Christmas show by two seminal bands from the 1960’s psychedelic scene Big Brother and the Holding Company and Quicksilver Messenger Service. Posters and handbills for this show were issued in tiny quantities and this original handbill has survived somehow in mint condition. It’s extremely undervalued and highly desirable in this state of preservation. It’s no secret that handbills are far easier to counterfeit than posters. CGC authentication has brought much needed integrity and stability to this very popular segment of the marketplace. Finally you can acquire original handbills with confidence knowing you are getting exactly what you pay for!
