 ITEM DESCRIPTION

 Original 1st printing 2nd/final state (White Lake) version 24 x 36&5/8" (large format) concert poster for the Woodstock Music and Arts Fair Aquarian Exposition, held in White Lake, NY from 8/15-17.1969.

 Art by Arnold Skolnick, image is featured in the Art of Rock book on page 257 (plate 3.1). This is the LARGE-format version.

 Poster advertises performances by Joan Baez, Arlo Guthrie, Tim Hardin, Richie Havens, the Incredible String Band, Bert Sommer, Ravi Shankar, Sly & the Family Stone and Sweetwater (8/15), Canned Heat, Creedence Clearwater (Revival), the Grateful Dead, Jefferson Airplane, Santana, Quill, Keef Hartley, the Who, Janis Joplin and Mountain, (8/16), the Band, the Jeff Beck Group (*canceled), Joe Cocker (and the Grease Band), Blood, Sweat & Tears, Johnny Winter, Crosby, Stills & Nash (with an unadvertised appearance by Neil Young), Iron Butterfly (*canceled/stranded at the airport), Ten Years After and Jimi Hendrix (with Gypsies, Suns and Rainbows). Not listed on the poster (but did perform); Country Joe McDonald (with and without the Fish), the Paul Butterfield Blues Band, John Sebastian and Sha-Na-Na.

 Medium-thin glossy stock poster is in decent/used (B/B-) condition; there is a thin diagonal bend in the upper right margin/corner (about 7" long, along with a fair amount of roll wear/creasing along the upper left margin, a series of small edge tears and surface pulls in the right center margin, a home-restored wedge-shaped patch-in/repair (about 2" long) and a number of tears along the bottom margin, a series of light surface scuffs, handling dings, tiny stress creases... you get the idea.

 While this example may have a few conditionally-challenged areas, I have priced it accordingly- there's a relative bargain here for somebody!

Q Hi, Brad. I hope you and yours are well. Can you pls tell me more specifically where the wedge shaped patch repair is and the approximate size of the wedge? Best, Lloyd Gelwan  posted by: freud  9/7/2018 5:18:06 AM
