this is literaly a "hoot"!!

"You are bidding on a very rare Original 1966 Hoot Folk Festival Magazine Volume 2 number 2 March 1966 Gordon Lightfoot Cover"
That could have fooled me
If it really is Gord it must have been from his Bill Haley aping period

this is the poster BillW has
which according to the ebay seller's blurb is a
"Great looking large 1970 promo ad for Gordon Lightfoot with Reprise goofing and calling the song "If I Could instead of If You Could Read My Mind"!!"

AND...
I recently showed a half page from a 1968 issue of the Canadian TV Guide another issue is on offer at ebay now:-

Gordon Lightfoot on the cover of Sun tv guide Nov 9, 1986

there is a rare "auction"
well starting price $US99.95
of a rare copy of the 1963 Canadian Talent Library vinyl album with more detail of the cover and disk than I for one have previously seen;
If you go to:-
http://www.ebaylightfoot.notlong.com
you should quickly spot it

Yet another rare audtion is for this poster for the 1967 post expo 67 concerts at the New Penelope showing the actual address on Sherbrooke
Street (now I fancy renamed Rue Rene Levesque in honour of the late Party Kaybeckwah leader

However the Starting bid for this item is a less reasonable US$299.00

Great ebay stuff indeed, I like The New Penelope Poster. Sort of brings you back, to the 70's.

All of this is just a hoot!
Is there any way to find out if that really is Gord? Personally, I rather doubt it. I'm a printer, and occasionally we mess up. Could be a case of switched photos.

I've seen a similar picture of Gordon somewhere but I know that's him.
Also,because I saw a film clip a long time ago of Bill Haley in the 60's,doing a show in England and he was,shall I say...hefty?
