Original 1st printing 14 x 9" uncut pair of concert handbills for Mother Earth (featuring Tracy Nelson) appearing with Shiva's Head Band at the Vulcan Gas Company in Austin, TX from 8/15-16/1969. Art by the one and only JFKLN (Jim Franklin), image ("Moon Pyramids") is featured in the Art of Rock book on page 293 (plate 3.120) and is an un-numbered part of the VG/Vulcan Gas Company series (VGC 1969-08-12/13+15/16). Thin flat stock handbill sheet is in very good to excellent (B/B+ to B+) condition; this one has a small print flaw just above the moon on the left handbill (a drop of liquid fell onto the press during the print run, affecting most examples), along with a couple of areas of light inking, a few thin creases along the left margin, a series of tiny edge nips in the lower left corner and a few light handling dings, but overall this example is pretty sharp. REALLY neat-looking uncut pair of VGC handbills!
