This vintage original 1955 cardboard poster is a treasured and highly collectible piece. Appropriately described as "The Top 10 Rhythm & Blues Review", this early lineup for an evening in September 1955 featured 3 Rock & Roll Hall of Fame inductees: Bo Diddley, Big Joe Turner and Etta James! Bo Diddley’s song “I’m a Man” was red hot during this era and it’s also printed on the poster. Etta James was only in the second year of her long spanning career. Original cardboard posters are super popular and remain one of the most highly sought after type of concert memorabilia ever known. Don't let this classic rarity pass you by!
