This has got to be one of the coolest concert posters I have ever seen! I love how Gordon and Bob basically share equal billing. At first I almost had to wonder if the poster really was from 1965. I mean Dylan was huge in '65, but Gordon hadn't yet released his first album. Johnny Cash and Pete Seeger are basically listed as the supporting acts. I suppose 1965 really was the year where Gordon's reputation as an excellent singer/songwriter really started to take flight, I just didn't realize he was was sharing equal billing with Dylan at that point....course if it was up to me, I would've put Gordon at the top, with Dylan listed underneath.
