Original 1st printing 4&1/4 x 7&1/4" blank-reverse concert/event card/handbill for the Second Annual Saugatuck Pop Festival, held at Pottawatamie Beach near Saugatuck, MI from 7/4-5/1969. Acts listed include: SRC, Procol Harum, MC5, Muddy Waters, John Lee Hooker, Rotary Connection, Crazy World of Arthur Brown, Bob Seger, Frost, the Stooges (featuring Iggy Pop), Big Mama Thornton, Savage Grace, Caste, the Amboy Dukes (with Ted Nugent), red White & Blues, Frut of the Loom and Brownsville Station. Art by (and SIGNED in black pen by) Carl Lundgren, image (full-color poster) is featured in the Art of Rock book on page 303 (plate 3.157). This is the BLACK/BLUE-INK ONLY version. Medium-thin flat vellum stock card is in excellent (B+) condition; there are tiny pin holes in the top center margin, in the center of the image area and in the upper right margin, a a bit of light wear along the top edge, a couple of tiny soft pin-prick surface stains hiding within the image area, light handling and a bit of uneven toning on the reverse, otherwise fine. VERY nice-looking ARTIST-SIGNED example of this semi-uncommon Michigan Pop Festival card.
