Description

Johnny Cash, June Carter 1965 Des Moines, IA Concert Poster. An original cardboard window card advertising "The Fabulous Johnny Cash Show" appearing in Des Moines, Iowa on Sunday night, May 23, 1965. The performance featured the talents of legend Tex Ritter and Johnny's future wife June Carter, plus the Willis Bros. and the Statler Bros. Great to get two pictures of the Man in Black on there, both with a guitar. At the time of this show, Johnny's last three hits had all been Top 5 C&W in Billboard: "The Ballad of Ira Hayes," "It Ain't Me, Babe" and "Orange Blossom Special." Measures a little under 14" x 22" and grades to Very Good condition. COA from Heritage Auctions.

More Information: The board has an unusual toning strip ¼" wide running down the entire left side and then halfway across the bottom, where it eases off. There is light toning in the other margins but not as strong. There's some very light moisture splatters in the lower right corner area, a couple of them on "Bros.", but only about five altogether. The lower right corner has a mild, harmless diagonal corner crease. The poster's verso has "1965" written in two corners.
