This lot offers the same popular and iconic art for less than a First Print currently commands! This beautiful second printing poster is in spectacular unimprovable condition. Original first printings are identified by the location of the blue dot under the “10” in the date at the bottom. The reprint like this one here has the dot under the “Y” in “May".
The Yardbirds were the breeding ground for THE top English blues guitarists of the era. The talents of Eric Clapton Jeff Beck and Jimmy Page contributed to the pedigree and prestige of the group. The band would subsequently morph into arguably the most powerful rock band of all time Led Zeppelin. This reprint poster is from a show by the band in 1968 when Page had taken over on guitar after Beck left the group. By September of that year they would become the New Yardbirds i.e. Led Zeppelin.
This superb museum quality piece here is flawless and unimprovable in every way as perfectly fresh as the day it was created!
