Page 66 has a nice advertisement for the opening day premiere of the film "BEETLEJUICE" (see images)
Page 87 has a nice full page ad for a "PINK FLOYD" performance at Giants Stadium. (see images)
And page 120 has an ad for a performance by "MEGADETH" at the Beacon Theater in Manhattan. (see images) This is pretty early for this band, 4 years prior to there hit song "Symphony Of Destruction".

The Village Voice was an American counterculture newspaper known for being the country's first alternative newsweekly. It introduced free-form, high-spirited, and passionate journalism into the public discourse - a tradition it maintained throughout its 60+ year history. It is quite common to find great political cartoons, satirical cartoons and articles, thought-provoking editorials, and ads and reviews for both concerts and theater productions - both on and off Broadway. Many iconic writers and musicians credit their appearance in The Village Voice for at least a portion of their success.
Complete in 164 pages, one fold across the center, nice condition.
