A rare handbill advertising two August 1969 shows by The Velvet Underground and Flight, at The Woodrose Ballroom in South Deerfield, Mass.

With gothic artwork and a central tombstone motif, this handbill comes from the legendary collection of the late Velvets guitarist Sterling Morrison. This handbill measures 8 1/2″ by 11″, and is in near excellent condition, with pinholes to the top two corners, and a bit of moisture discoloration in the bottom left corner, not affecting the image (more faint than in the scan here.)

With a letter of authenticity from Sterling Morrison’s widow, Martha Morrison, and Recordmecca’s written lifetime guarantee of authenticity.
