This is the FIRST TIME we’ve offered this original Chuck Berry handbill from the Odeon Theatre in Bolton England! Chuck Berry material has been rising in value ever since the rock n roll icon's passing. The historic Odeon in Bolton opened on Saturday August 21st 1937 and was a highly successful theatre but it was soon eclipsed in size within the circuit when the Odeon Bradford opened in 1938 and Blackpool in 1939.
Also on the bill in Bolton were the legendary Carl Perkins and the British rock & soul band The Animals which included Eric Burdon and Chas Chandler. The latter being known in history as the man who discovered Jimi Hendrix. In the mid sixties The Animals became popular with their #1 hit "House of the Rising Sun".
