This original poster was produced for Leon Russell (and a young Elton John in support) appearing at Painters Mill Music Fair in November of 1970. Leon Russell was a multi-talented American musician, songwriter, and producer whose influence spanned several decades and genres. His career took off in the 1960s when he became a highly sought-after session musician in Los Angeles, but he later emerged as a solo artist in his own right. His 1970 self-titled album "Leon Russell" showcased his songwriting prowess and established him as a formidable talent. Tree Frog Productions was a grassroots promotion company that staged concerts at Painters Mill Music Fair, a small theater in Owings Mills Maryland, a suburb north of Baltimore. The posters were printed in small quantities and are next to impossible to find in any condition. A rare original poster that will likely not appear again in our auction anytime soon!

 

Condition: pinholes, tape pulls, toning, staining, creases, edgewear.
