Original 1st printing 23 x 33" large silkscreen concert poster for a Hells Angels-sponsored show ("A-Wake-Ning") featuring the Grateful Dead at the Anderson Theatre in New York City on 11/23/1970. Artist unknown (likely a local member of the club), medium-thick flat stock hand-pulled silkscreen poster has been professionally restored to excellent (B+) condition; a few small surface/edge dings and the poster has been hand-signed by a HA member ("Hi- Glad to be Here, Uncle Sal") in the upper left corner (which, in my opinion, makes it even cooler), but it's otherwise basically fine, a really impressive-looking 1970 Dead/HA poster and an awesome display piece. Special guests at these shows included Steve Winwood, Jim Capaldi and Chris Wood from Traffic (who happened to be across the street at the Fillmore East) and Ramblin' Jack Elliott; stream the show here: http://www.archive.org/details/gd1970-11-23.sbd.lai.4734.sbeok.shnf
