This rare original poster is one of the most popular and sought after Jimi Hendrix's posters of all. It was produced by Hapshash & The Coloured Coat for Jimi's appearance at the Saville Theatre in London on August 27th 1967. Supporting acts on the bill included Tomorrow featuring Keith West and the Crazy World of Arthur Brown. Also included on the poster are advertisements for shows in September of 1967 featuring Georgie Fame and Eric Burdon & The New Animals with Denny Lane & The Electric String Band. Interestingly enough Brian Epstein who leased the Saville Theatre and managed The Beatles died on the day this show was scheduled to take place. The posters of Hapshash and the Coloured Coat are arguably the most attractive concert posters ever made!
