Handbill announcing Timothy Leary’s Psychedelic Celebration Number One, with Leary appearing in person at the Berkeley Community Theatre on January 27, 1967 (two weeks after the Human Be-In), and the Winterland Auditorium in San Francisco the following evening.

14.8x20cm. Printed in black on pink stock, recto only.

Billed as a “Re-enactment of the world's great religious myths using psychedelic method: Media mix, molecular phrasing, pantomime, lights, sound, film and lecture”, the show consisted of Leary sitting onstage with Jackie Cassen and Rudi Stern’s light show behind him, and a musician playing a sarod as he retold the story of the enlightenment of Gautama Buddha.

Fine.
