Original 1st printing 7&3/8 x 12&3/8" concert flyer for Country Joe & The Fish appearing with Children of Stone at the El Rancho Convention Center in West Sacramento, CA on 2/24/1967.
Art by Jim Carrico/Sparrow Studios, medium-thin flat vellum stock flyer is in decent/used (B/B- to B-) condition; there is a fairly heavy amount of moisture wear to the piece with a bit of ink bleed from a large hand-written note on the reverse (see photo) starting to show through to the front of the paper, along with a series of surface smudges/dings, tack holes in the top/bottom center margins, a tiny pull in the top center margin, a few stray edge nicks and tiny bends hiding within the image area, a tiny drag tear in the lower right corner and a pair of tape pulls (in addition to the aforementioned note) on the reverse... definitely a bit on the worn side.
Conditional issues aside, this is a pretty scarce/uncommon low-run regional Country Joe flyer from a totally obscure venue. I was told that the portrait on this piece is a self-portrait of the artist (Jim Carrico).
