This difficult to find, original cardboard poster was produced for a show Jimi was scheduled to perform on June 27th, 1969 at The Henry Levitt Arena - Wichita State University, but the concert was ultimately canceled because promoter Barry Fey offered the band a higher-paying gig to perform at the Denver Pop Festival at Mile High Stadium on the same weekend (June 29th). Not to mention, a couple of months prior Hendrix was arrested at the Canadian border on drug charges. This resulted in Jimi channeling his energies into recording new material in the studio, and thus he began to have visions of maybe owning his OWN recording studio - a plan which ultimately happened. He would also change the lineup of the Experience Trio soon after (Jimi, Noel Redding and Mitch Mitchell). This is the FIRST example of this rare original poster we have ever auctioned!
Condition: Cardboard. Tape pulls, stains.
