Description

Downbeat Club Hand-Lettered Concert Poster (1965). Liverpool was home not only to the legendary Cavern Club of Beatles fame, but also to this popular 350-seat venue, originally home to Jazz artists before Beat groups like Cy Tucker's Friars took over. Incidentally, the band listed as "the Detours" was not the same act that was better known as the Who -- Pete Townsend and company had changed their name by the time of this poster. It measures approximately 20" x 30.5", and is in Very Good condition, with some corner and edge damage.
