>Also, he has a question about the only gig where Hawkwind played on

>Evolution", played at the Hall des Expositions, Bourget, France.

>Here are my questions first.

>Now, Rob's question is that he is looking for an advert for the show
>for the book he is writing on the history of Progressive Rock.  Does
>anyone have such an advertisement?  If not, does anyone have any leads
>at all as to how he might obtain one?

I'll refer you to the Pink Floyd Archives, run by Vernon Fitch.  His
