Original 1st printing 18&3/8 x 25" merchandising poster for jazz-rock pioneers Blood, Sweat & Tears appearing at the Toronto Pop Festival, held at Varsity Stadium in Toronto, Ontario (Canada) from 6/21-22/1969 (BST performed on 6/22). Design by John Par (Dream Machine), this poster was one of several different merchandising posters sold at the event (others from the series include the Band*, Johnny Winter*, Steppenwolf, Jimi Hendrix (who did not perform), and a generic poster featuring a naked woman perched on Varsity Stadium's bleachers). Medium-thin glossy stock poster is in near mint to excellent (A-/B+ to B+) condition; aside from a touch of curl to the paper from being rolled and a few tiny edge dings, it is an UNBEATABLE example of this VERY psychedelic BS&T poster from one of the band's biggest commercial years. *We also have the matching/similar posters for Johnny Winter and the Band listed separately.
