Offered for sale is an ORIGINAL concert handbill for the band Chicago from a 7/12/71 performance at the Santa Clara County Fairgrounds (San Jose, CA), featuring graphics of the band's logo, and is extremely RARE to find as these were produced in small printing editions and only had regioinal distribution (see bio info below). The handbill measures 8.5" x 5.5", is in "good" condition (flat; clean; solid; printed on fragile newsprint paper so it has some tanning, and a few fragile creases that have been reinforced with archival tissue on backside; RARE TO FIND IN ANY CONDITION), and is still very suitable for framing or display. The starting price is only $74.99, and is a great addition to any Chicago Collection! Overseas bidders please add for additional S/H costs, and CA State Residents please add 9% sales tax.
