Sid Richardson College Oktoberfest Flier, Rice University
Date
1971-10Description
Flier for the first Sid Richardson College Oktoberfest, Rice University. The flier is hand-drawn, and the 3 holes along the right margin indicate the sheet of paper was torn from a folder. The flier reads "The Oktoberfest Is Coming Friday, 15 October, Richardson College, All The Beer You can drink. Bavarian Beer Gardens Atmosphere, 15 Kegs - 7 Tappers - No Waiting, Basement: Winchester Band, Commons: Tables Laden With Authentic German Soul-Food; Beer. Served by Pretty Fraulein, 8PM-2AM, $1.50/Student." The writing is over a line drawing of a man’s head in profile, wearing a WWI-era Imperial German spiked helmet, with an Imperial Austrian double-headed eagle appearing at the very bottom of the page. Original resource is a black and white flier.
