Description
This listing features a rare collection of three original official programs from the early years of the world-renowned Monterey Jazz Festival. A must-have for jazz historians and collectors of mid-century ephemera. Included in this lot: (2) 1960 Third Annual Programs: Featuring the iconic purple and orange "three saxophonists" cover art. These document a legendary year with performers like Duke Ellington, Louis Armstrong, and Andre Previn. (1) 1962 Fifth Annual Program: The classic blue cover with stylized trumpet and chair graphic. This program covers the world premiere of Lalo Schifrinâ€ℕs "The New Continent" and performances by Dizzy Gillespie and Stan Getz. Condition: These are authentic 60+ year-old vintage items. They show light, age-appropriate wear and some toning on the white covers of the 1960 editions. The interiors are clean, featuring incredible period photography, artist bios, and vintage high-fidelity audio advertisements (Columbia Records, Fender, etc.).
