    Description
    Scarce
    and highly collectible
    original first printing
    concert handbill advertising American folk-rock duo
    Simon and Garfunkel
    at the Odeon Theatre in Birmingham [England] on Saturday, 9th March, 1968, in support of the
    Bookends
    album, and presented by Harold Davison and Tito Burns. Produced by Simon & Garfunkel with Ray Haylee,
    Bookends
    was the duo’s fourth studio album, and was released on on 3rd April, 1968 by Columbia Records. It is a concept album that explores a life journey from childhood to old age. Side one of the album marks successive stages in life, the theme serving as bookends to the life cycle. Side two largely consists of unused material for
    The Graduate
    soundtrack. The album produced the #1 single “Mrs. Robinson”, and reached number one in both the US and the UK.
    Bookends
    was considered a breakthrough for the duo, placing them on the same level as artists such as the Beatles, Bob Dylan, and the Rolling Stones at the forefront of the cultutal movement in the 1960s.
    The handbill measures 14.5 x 22.8 cm (approx. 5-3/4" by 9" inches) and is beautifully printed on thin, uncoated paper stock. The handbill has been folded twice with a tiny pin hole to each corner. Complete with the original postal booking form still intact.
