Original 1st printing 19&5/8 x 14" concert poster for H.P. Lovecraft appearing with Kaleidoscope (featuring David Lindley) at the Sound Factory in Sacramento, CA from 8/23-24/1968.
Art by J.L. Pennington, image is featured in the Art of Rock on page 259 (plate 3.9).
Medium-thick glossy-coated index stock poster is in decent (B/B-) condition; this example has multiple pin/tack holes in each corner and in the top/bottom center margins with a small 3/4" wedge tear in the top left corner and a pair of 1/2" and 3/4" wedge tears/pulls in the top right corner, a few soft stains along the bottom border and within the image area, a bit of moisture rippling to the paper, several thin hairline bends and pinch dings scattered around the poster, otherwise OK.
While this example is definitely a bit on the used side (more than likely pulled down from public display at the time of the shows), it retains all of the bright reds/yellows (traditionally the first colors to fade) and it still looks quite presentable. GREAT psychedelic design on this one!
