This colorful poster announced Kool and the Gang headlining an event at the Norfolk Scope in Norfolk, Virginia, on March 9th, 1975. They were joined by Millie Jackson, Ray, Goodman & Brown, and Tavares. This is a CARDBOARD GLOBE poster, and Globe posters are universally considered among the most desirable concert posters EVER issued. From its opening in 1929 until its closure in 2010, Globe Poster Company in Baltimore was the go-to place for musicians, circuses, drag races, and concert producers for bold, eye-catching letterpress advertising. It's no secret that Globe cardboard concert posters are the gold standard amongst advanced collectors. They rarely show up at public auction, and when they do, they are always met with enthusiastic bidding!
