This 5.5x8.5" promotional flyer is printed in green for this St. Patrick's Day 1962 performance in Southern California. Singer-songwriter John Phillips of the yet-to-be-formed Mamas and the Papas starred in the short-lived folk trio that was billed as “Iona Recording Artists the Journeymen of South Bay.” There are tape marks and the lower left corner is clipped/folded. There's raffle information on the leaflet, and a donation of $1.50 (stag) or $2.50 (couples) is requested. The lyrics in the Mamas and the Papa's hit "Creeque Alley" detail this period in Phillips' life with great specificity.
