Original 1st printing (Scoop Printing credit/no "Ticketron" imprint) 16&1/4 x 22&1/2" concert poster for "Summer Jam", an all-day show featuring the Allman Brothers Band, the Band and the Grateful Dead appearing together at Watkins Glen Grand Prix Circuit (Racecouse) in Watkins Glen, NY on 7/28/1973 (along with a special "soundcheck" on 7/27*). Design by Sokoloff/Saban/Mahn, image* is featured in the Art of Rock book on page 406 (plate 4.231). *Ticketron outlet version (there are also more commonly-available versions without this imprint) Medium-thick glossy-coated index stock poster is in GORGEOUS near mint (A- to A-/B+) condition; aside from a touch of light wear along the right edge, a tiny bend in the top right corner tip and a nearly-invisible roll bend along the lower left margin, this example is pretty much just as sharp/crisp as they come. A great-looking ORIGINAL example of this classic early-'70's GD/Band/ABB poster from one of the most legendary concerts in Grateful Dead history. Listen to a great-sounding recording of the 7/27 pre-show "soundcheck" here; https://archive.org/details/gd73-07-27.aud.weiner.gdadt26.26363.sbeok.shnf
