Original 1st printing 15&5/8 x 27&3/8" silkscreen concert/event poster for the 1965 Mariposa Folk Festival, held at Caledon East in Innis Lake, Ontario, Canada from 8/6-8/1965.

 Designer unknown, poster lists festival participants: Ian & Sylvia, Phil Ochs, Gordon Lightfoot, Johnny Hammond (John Hammond, Jr.), the Country Gentlemen, Son House, the Allen-Ward Trio, the Dirty Shames, the York County Boys and Joni Anderson (AKA Joni Mitchell, this was right after she married Chuck Mitchell) and many more.

 Thin flat semi-gloss stock hand-pulled silkscreen poster is in good (B) condition; a series of thin horizontal bends traversing the length of the poster from top to bottom, spread about 2" apart from one another, a few small surface scuffs and dings (a couple of tiny areas of cracked ink) scattered around the piece, a bit of light moisture rippling and a small moisture stain in the bottom right corner tip, otherwise fine.

 VERY early Joni Mitchell poster, read all about the event (complete with photos and first-hand accounts) HERE;
