Original 1st printing 14&1/8 x 22&1/2" hand-pulled silkscreen concert poster for the "Spring Weekend" homecoming celebration held at Brown University in Providence, RI from 4/24-26/1970 and featuring appearances by: Jefferson Airplane (4/24), Delaney & Bonnie and Friends, John Mayall and James Taylor (4/25- afternoon), Ray Charles (4/25-evening), Wm. Sloan Coffin and Judy Collins (4/26). Design by Mad Peck, image is featured in the Art of Rock on page 407 (plate 4.234). Medium-thick semi-glossy index card stock hand-pulled silkscreen poster is in decent (B/B-) condition; a 1 x 1&1/2 area of missing paper and a water stain in the top left corner, a moderate degree of edge wear (small nicks/tears, light staining) along the left margin with a soft/frayed bottom left corner (1/2 x 1&1/2" area of missing paper, a 4" vertical tear in the bottom center margin (taped on the reverse with clear tape), light creasing and a small nip out of the bottom right corner, a few thin horizontal stress bends and surface dings here and there, but it's not too bad-looking... actually quite charming for what it is. An overall very presentable example of this New England oddity from the Art of Rock book that would look great framed up.
