Item Description
The Newport Folk Festival is an American annual folk-oriented music festival in Newport, RI., which began in 1959 as a counterpart to the previously established Newport Jazz Festival.

Scattered wear w/pinch creases to spine. Fine. Comes w/rare 2-3/16x3-3/8" pass/ticket marked "Kin" at top which allowed a relative of an act or event staff admittance to the festival. Stamped "No. 024" and filled out "John Court" in ink. Scattered faint staining along top. Fine/VF.
