This incredible Original Poster was created to promote the 1968 San Francisco International Pop Festival. The two day lineup was extensive and impressive featuring Lee Michaels Buddy Miles Express Eric Burdon & the Animals Canned Heat The Grass Roots Deep Purple Procol Harum Creedence Clearwater Revival Iron Butterfly Jose Feliciano The Chambers Brothers and many more. Some say Janis Joplin The Who Moby Grape and Jimi Hendrix also played but the pre-festival posters don't list them.
The eye appeal of this colorful poster is off the charts! A true gem. Not a poster that appears in our auctions very often - it's been 4 years since the last example we've offered. In November 2016 a lesser graded Near Mint 89 example reached $587 in our auction. In any other collectibles market this poster would be worth many multiples of the previously sold example. It will be interesting to see what premium the market attaches to this superior example now!
