Original 1st printing 17 x 22" concert poster for UK rock titans the Who appearing with Tony Williams (Lifetime- with Jack Bruce and John McLaughlin) at the Boston Tea Party (15 Lansdowne St location) in Boston, MA on 11/11-12/1969. Art by Eric Engstrom, image is featured in the Art of Rock book on page 307 (plate 3.172). Medium flat vellum stock poster is in used (B-) condition; a series of pronounced tiny brown splatter stains covering the bulk of the poster, numerous pin/tack holes (all four corners), several areas of light to moderate surface chipping (mostly around the outer margins), toning, edge/corner wear (the top right corner is reinforced on the reverse with clear tape), a 1" tear in the right center margin, several small scattered surface pits/dings, tape pulls/residue on the reverse and a series of well-placed handling/pinch dings... this example obviously saw quite a bit of life in it's day, but it is still "all there". A perfect restoration project or filler piece for the casual collector and a KILLER Who image.
