AUCTION - AOR 2.156 - Bilbo's Birthday Big Brother Great Society - 1966 Handbill - California Hall - Very Good
Fantastic original "Bilbo's Birthday" concert handbill featuring three of the most important bands from the Sixties era of San Francisco. You have the Charlatans, who kind of started it all. Then it’s the Great Society, the band Grace Slick was in before she joined Jefferson Airplane. Finally, it’s Big Brother and the Holding Company that had Janis Joplin as their lead singer. All were held at California Hall on July 28th, 1966. It's pictured in The Art of Rock on page 178, plate 2.156. This is still very early on the scene, about the same time as BG 20. This oversized handbill measures 6 5/8” X 14”. In very good condition. Single tack holes at the top and bottom center, corner bends, handling, and tape on the reverse. Still presents well.
