Original 1st printing 14 x 17" concert poster for Detroit's own MC5 appearing with Clover and the Congress of Wonders at the Straight Theatre in San Francisco, CA from 3/14-16/1969. Art by Gary Grimshaw, the image (featuring the logo of the Michigan-based White Panther Party) is featured in the Art of Rock book on page 201 (plate 2.227). Medium-thin glossy stock poster is in good/decent (B to B/B-) condition; a moderate amount of corner/edge wear (tack/pin holes in all four corners and at the top center, a couple of tape pulls/residue stains and a few small creases/bends), series of semi-camouflaged thin stress bends in the field of stars in the upper left corner, a couple of stray surface scuffs and scrapes on the "ove" of "Clover", a 1/2" tape pull just to the bottom right of "Wonders" and assorted surface scratches and dings, otherwise fine- still a very presentable example of the always-popular Grimshaw White Panther MC5 Straight Theatre poster.
