Original 1st printing 14 x 11" silkscreen concert poster for Central Valley pop-psychedelic band Children appearing at either the Rainbow/Marigold Ballroom (venue not listed, this poster was likely on display at whichever venue the event was held) in Fresno, CA on 5/6/1966 (*show was presented local teen-scene promoters "Rocky's Mag"). Designer unknown/not credited, hand-pulled silkscreen poster (printed on thick cardboard stock) is in good/decent (B/B-) condition; the board is slightly toned/discolored (the original blue color can be seen on the reverse), each corner has either a small pin/tack hole, along with a bit of diagonal creasing and a tiny nip out of the top right corner tip, an approximately 2" square pressure/stress crease in the right center margin, a couple of tiny areas of pencil scratch on some of the letters and below the artist's credit, along with a tiny pen scratch in the lower left corner tip, a thin vertical tape stain in the lower right margin, a bit of light edge toning and a set of pulls on the reverse, otherwise fine. Unusual low-run regional poster from the early psychedelic/garage scene in Fresno.
