Peter, Paul and Mary 1966 Philharmonic Hall, New York City Concert Poster
New York City, October 7, 1966 - 13¼ x 21¾ inches
 
An original cardboard concert window card promoting Peter, Paul & Mary at Philharmonic Hall at Lincoln Center in New York City on Friday evening, October 7, 1966. Printed in vivid red and black, the design employs the group’s iconic mid-1960s promotional format, combining dramatic photographic close-ups with elegant oversized lettering that has become closely associated with the visual culture of the American folk revival.
 
By 1966, Peter, Paul & Mary had become among the most influential acts in popular music, their performances and recordings closely intertwined with the era’s emerging movements for civil rights, peace activism, and social reform. Posters for their New York appearances at Philharmonic Hall, particularly unused examples, remain highly evocative artifacts from the height of the 1960s folk movement and the broader cultural transformation surrounding it.
