1970: Allentown Art Festival. Mark was 12 years old in the summer of ‘69 when he had heard the Woodstock album would be out in summer of 1970. A three record set with all of the groups. So he went around door-to-door in the neighborhood getting deposits for frozen pizzas he would deliver, made candles, and with the with the money, which Mark doubled, got a booth at the festival to sell his posters, jewelry and candles. And by the way, he got that Woodstock album.
