Page 73 has a 5 x 3 inch advertisement for the performance of "AC/DC" at Madison Square Garden.
Page 61 had a ad for Motley Crue's "Shout at the Devil" album.
Page 42 has full page ad for the showing of "Star 8". (see images) Being a weekly publication, this is actually the opening day ad for this film.
I suspect this to be an extremely rare item because their was really no reason to save it at the time.
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 with 132 pages, tabloid-size, one crease across the center, library stamp on the front page, nice condition.

Provenance note: This issue comes from The Village Voice's own archives, part of their in-house collection used to create their digital archive. Rare as such.
