The first concert ever there.
Size 8.5" 11". This will look excellent framed.
I am including a copy with 2 sides as the original plus a copy of just the front and a copy of just the back. You may never see another offered that's how rare it is.
Redbone was opening act on the poster but cancelled.abd Cactus filled their place (they were amazing)....thiis was right after the closing of the Fillmore East.....concerts had to make a comeback....an amazing start for the Central theatre......but it didn't last long.

At first, the venue's primary focus was live entertainment (such as plays and concerts), as the nearby Montauk Theatre and Capitol Theater both showed movies and offered stiff competition. Its seating capacity of a little under 2,400 seats made it suitable for these types of events. With the advent of television in the late 1940s, plays became less and less profitable, and the venue switched to solely putting on movies and concerts. The theatre had always booked some of the names biggest names in music, and it continued to do so until through the early 1970s. The venue closed in the late 1970s, and was the first of the original three Passaic theaters (Capitol, Montauk and Central) that would eventually be demolished.[1]
A McDonald's was later built on the site the central theatre used to be at 19 Central Passaic Avenue, Passaic New Jersey.[2]
