Original 1st printing 5&1/2 x 8&5/8" blank-reverse concert/event handbill for the 1st Annual Fort Lauderdale Easter-Rock Festival, held at Lockhart Park in Fort Lauderdale, FL from 3/30-4/1/1969.

 Handbill lists appearances by Creedence Clearwater Revival, Canned Heat, MC5, Grass Roots, Steve Miller (Blues Band), Chuck Berry, Strawberry Alarm Clock, Three Dog Night, Morning Glory, Frut of the Loom, Buffalo Springfield (Dewey Martin lineup), Sweetwater and Tiny Tim (*not known exactly who appeared, but the event apparently did go on).

 Design by Linda Segul (image recycled from several previous festival/event posters), medium flat vellum stock handbill is in decent/used (B/B-) condition; there are a couple of small edge tears, along with a moderate degree of surface wear (smudges, pin-prick stains/spots), a few thin bends hiding within the image area, a couple of soft/lightly creased corner tips and a bit of staining on the reverse... definitely a well-worn survivor

 Conditional issues aside, it's still a fairly scarce early-'69 multi-act festival item from a mostly-forgotten Florida event. One interesting tidbit I did find out was that the MC5 were barred from entering the state due to the publication of a somewhat questionable photo in the "Berkeley Barb", so they obviously did not appear.
