This rare, original theatrical film promotional poster was produced and distributed to theaters in 1971 to promote the film Rainbow Bridge. The full length movie included approximately 17 minutes of film footage captured during the Jimi Hendrix Rainbow Bridge concert in Maui on July 30, 1970. Filmed in summer 1970 with non-professional actors and without a script, the movie features largely improvised scenes with a variety of characters. The film was a critical failure at the time of its release but continued to attract attention as Maui was Jimi's second-to-last American concert and the last one officially filmed. Jimi's entire set from the famed Maui show would finally see the light of day in 2020. This original 1971 promo poster has factory folds from when it was originally folded and distributed. This is the FIRST example of this large-sized official film poster to ever appear in our auction! 

 

Condition: Masking tape backside, folded into eighths, a little bit of water damage top right corner.
