Original 1st printing 1st state (no acts listed) 13&5/8 x 22&3/8" concert/event poster for the Woodstock Music and Arts Fair Aquarian Exposition in Walkill (*moved to White Lake), NY on 8/15-17.1969.

 Art by David Byrd, image (along with the final White Lake offset version) is featured in the Art of Rock book on page 257 (plate 3.2)

 While this early 1st state poster advertises no acts, performers at the now-legendary 3-day event included: Joan Baez, Arlo Guthrie, Tim Hardin, Richie Havens, the Incredible String Band, Bert Sommer, Ravi Shankar, Sweetwater, Canned Heat, Creedence Clearwater (Revival), the Grateful Dead, Jefferson Airplane, Santana, Keef Hartley, the Who, Janis Joplin, Mountain, the Band, Joe Cocker & the Grease Band, Blood, Sweat & Tears, Johnny Winter, Crosby Stills, Nash & Young, Ten Years After, Sly & the Family Stone, Country Joe & the Fish, the Paul Butterfield Blues Band, John Sebastian, Quill and Sha-Na-Na.

 Medium glossy-coated index stock poster is in fantastic near mint (A-/B+) condition; there is a thin 1&1/2" diagonal bend in the upper left corner, a few tiny surface scratches/fingerprints here and there, a 1/4" tear in the bottom center margin, a few well-camouflaged handling bends and a couple of light surface scuffs in the central image area (lower left corner), otherwise it is an absolutely GORGEOUS example of the 1st printing David Byrd Woodstock poster.
