 ITEM DESCRIPTION
 Original 1st printing 16&7/8 x 21&7/8" concert/event poster for the John Sinclair Freedom Rally,  held at Crisler Arena on the campus of the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor, MI on 12/10/1971.

 Performers/speakers listed include: John Lennon and Yoko Ono, Archie Shepp & Roswell Rudd with CJQ, Phil Ochs, Up, Commander Cody and His Lost Planet Airmen, Joy of Cooking and David Peel, Rennie Davis, Allen Ginsberg, Father James Groppi, Sheila Murphy, Jerry Rubin, Ed Sanders (the Fugs), Bobby Seale (Black Panthers), Leni Sinclair, Marge Tabankin and Jonnie Lee Tillmon.

 Art by Gary Grimshaw, image is featured in the Art of Rock book on page 395 (plate 4.194).

 Medium-thick flat vellum stock poster is in good/decent (B/B-) condition; there are a pair of hard horizontal folds/creases traversing the center of the poster, along with a single vertical fold/crease (item was folded in 1/4ths by the original owner) and a tiny pin-sized hole in the center of the image where the folds meet, along with a quartet of light brown tape shadows and tiny pin holes (one in each corner and a small tape stain on the tip of John's nose), a few light handling dings here and there, a stray thin stress crease or two, a hint of edge wear (mostly in the top center margin) and a couple of tiny dings/splits in the lower left/right corner tips, otherwise fine.

 REALLY cool-looking early 1970's Gary Grimshaw poster from one of the most historic political events held in Ann Arbor up to that point. This particular example came home with someone who picked it up off the floor at a U of M basketball game held in Crisler Arena shortly after the rally.
