Original 1st printing 10&1/4 x 7&7/8" event flyer for a showing of the Beatles' 1967 film "Magical Mystery Tour", held at Beaver Hall in Portland, OR on 5/22/1968. Art by Alton Kelley, image is featured in the Art of Rock book on page 289 (plate 3.112). Thin pulpy vellum stock flyer (or oversized handbill) is in decent/used (B/B- to B-) condition; a hard vertical center crease with a 1&1/4" tear in the top center margin, a 3/4" tape pull in the top center/right margin/edge, a series of soft handling dings, a soft horizontal center crease, a series of light brown tape shadows on the reverse, otherwise fine. A decent (if a bit used) charming example of this VERY uncommon Kelley item from the Pacific Northwest.
