We've never offered this rare handbill from Leicester in our auction before until NOW! Here we have the JIMI HENDRIX EXPERIENCE and Cat Stevens on the same handbill with Englebert Humperdinck at the famous De Montfort Hall during Jimi's "Package" tour.
Stories have been passed down for generations about this show. The Leicester Mercury Paper printed this review the following day: “The Jimi Hendrix Experience are surely the oddest looking group to appear at De Montford Hall. When I tried not to look the sound they made was different and not unattractive. A splendid concert”.
Jimi Hendrix material is one of the most popular treasures in the collectible market today. This original historic gem is a gold nugget to the early Hendrix collector! In July 2018 a lower graded "Extra Fine 69" example of the handbill from the night before (4/15/67 same image and lineup) reached $1150 in our auction.
