This poster is signed in black ink by the promoter the late great Jim Salzer!
First printing poster advertising Van Morrison early in his solo career after Them appearing in Santa Barbara California on September 30th 1967. Quicksilver Messenger Service were the headliner of this bill joined by Clear Light and Blue Cheer. The show was promoted by the showgrounds' Jim Salzer. This poster includes the Maron Litho union logo printer’s bug on the bottom edge.
Last year Jim Salzer passed away at age 78 suddenly and unexpectedly from complications involving a previous neck injury. His lasting legacy is well known in the industry. First as a guitarist and singer then as a rock show promoter who booked big names like the Rolling Stones Jimi Hendrix and Led Zeppelin. He briefly managed the Doors during the early years and he frequently brought in major bands of the era to Ventura and Santa Barbara. Salzer's owned & operated record shop has been a legendary fixture for decades - and still stands today.
