This banner embraces the efforts that were put forth prior to the evolution of historic preservation. The Woodstock Preservation Alliance is the banner which the Preservationists stood under throughout their efforts for the historic preservation of the Woodstock Site. The "Dove Behind the Fence" was a signature logo used by the Woodstock Preservationists to raise awareness and the chain-link fence is symbolic of the fact that the privilege to walk freely on the Woodstock Site, is no longer allowed.

THE WOODSTOCK STAMP

This stamp was issued on a limited edition sheet from the U.S. post office in 1999, and has since become very hard to locate in mint condition. The back of the stamp reads, "From August 15 to 18, 1969, approximately 500,000 people gathered for the Woodstock Music and Art Fair. This festival of peace and music celebrated the best of the '60s youth culture and came to symbolize a generation.

 

THE WOODSTOCK ALBUMS

The first to perform at Woodstock, Richie Havens was also first to sign this Woodstock album, presented to him by the founding members of the Woodstock Preservation Alliance, at a concert on April 6, 2001. These albums, both Woodstock and Woodstock Two, subsequently circulated across the US, gaining signatures of original Woodstock alumni, in a show of support for the mission to perpetuate the Woodstock Spirit.
