Description

Original 1st printing 5&1/2 x 8&1/2" concert handbill for R. Crumb & His De-Luxe string Orchestra appearing with magician Martin Lewis at Earthquake McGoon's Magic Cellar in San Francisco, CA on 3/9/1974.

 Art by the aforementioned R. Crumb, thin flat stock (Nekoosa Bond) handbill is in near mint (A-) condition; just a tiny thin "1 diagonal bend in the top right corner tip, a small pinch ding in the top margin and a tiny corner-tip bump or two and that's pretty much all there is to speak of... REALLY crisp example.

 Unusual mid-'70's R. Crumb-drawn advertisement for one of his eclectic (and infrequent) musical appearances. While Crumb generally stayed away from drawing concert advertisements, it was a different story when it came to his own band!
