Original 1st printing 8&1/2 x 11" 66-page concert/event program for the 1965 Newport Folk Festival, held at Festival Field in Newport, R.I.

 Design by Stacey Williams, Ralph Rinzler, Robert Yellin, Judith Dugan and Jonathan Shahn (cover), program contains numerous photos, essays (including a VERY weird one by Bob Dylan), ads for local and national businesses (Ford, Guild Guitars, Narragansett Beer), record/management companies (Verve/Folkways, Albert Grossman), short bios on performers and a full schedule of events.

 Participants in this edition of the annual event included: Bob Dylan (with the Paul Butterfield Blues Band and Al Kooper), the Chambers Brothers, Lightnin' Hopkins, Jim Kweskin Jug Band, Son House, Reverend Gary Davis, Dick and Mimi Farina, Ian & Sylvia, Peter, Paul & Mary, Gordon Lightfoot, Joan Baez, Donovan and MANY more. (*the Sunday evening (7/25) concert was the infamous "Dylan goes electric" show.)

 Medium-thin flat index stock interior (thick textured index card stock stock cover) program is in very good to excellent (B/B+ to B+) condition; the outer cover has a small 3/4" tear in the bottom margin (through "22") and a tiny corner-tip nip tear in the top left corner, along with a trace of toning/surface dirt, a minor amount of spine wear and a pair of slightly rusty staples, otherwise fine- no missing/clipped pages, doodling/scribbling or additional interior wear, this is a complete/fully-intact example.

 VERY COOL original Newport Folk Festival artifact from one of the most infamous shows in 1960's rock history. Here's Bob Dylan performing the classic "Maggie's Farm" from the Sunday show;
