A very rare cardboard boxing-style concert poster for blues giant Howlin’ Wolf and his Blues Review, June 8 & 9, 1973 at Governor’s Inn in Buffalo, New York; and four original snapshots from the show, and the corresponding negatives.   We’ve seen only four Howlin’ Wolf boxing-style posters, two of which were reprinted extensively.  This is the only example we’ve seen from this show.

The poster, printed by Tribune Press of Earl Park, Indiana, measures 14″ x 22″ and is in near excellent condition, with a single tack hole in each of the top corners, and a barely noticeable diagonal crease below the words “Blues Review”.  Also included are four original vintage photographs taken at one of these shows, each 3 1/2″ square, and the corresponding (watermarked here but not on the original photographs).
