Original 1st printing 14&1/8 x 19&7/8" concert poster for the Steve Miller Blues Band appearing with the Congress of Wonders at the Matrix in San Francisco, CA from 12/20-23/1966. Art by Victor Moscoso, image is # 0 in the Neon Rose series. This is the VERY FIRST image, pre-dating the # 1 (Junior Wells) image by a week. Medium flat index stock poster is in very good (B/B+) condition; multiple staple holes (all four corners and left center margin) with a small 1/2" wedge tear in the top left margin, plus a single nail hole and 1/2" tear in the top left/center margin, a thin diagonal drip stain in the upper right margin, a tiny wedge nip in the lower right corner tip, a few stray soft handling dings, otherwise fine. This one really looks like it was pulled down from public display. An overall GREAT-looking 1st printing example of the EARLIEST Neon Rose image.
