Original 1st printing 14&1/4 x 11" concert poster for the Velvet Underground (with Lou Reed) appearing with the Chambers Brothers, Dr. John (the Night Tripper) and Salvation at the Shrine Exposition Hall in Los Angeles, CA from 5/24-25/1968.

 Art by John Van Hamersveld, image is featured in the Art of Rock book on page 254.

 Thick flat vellum stock poster has been professionally restored to very good (B/B+) condition; there has been a fairly extensive amount of work around the outer border area, there has been a large horizontal tear on the right side that has been sealed and there are numerous touch-ups hiding within the image area- beyond that, there remain a series of thin stress bends/creases scattered throughout the poster and a subtle wave to the paper... there's a bit of work on this one, but it was really pretty hammered to begin with.

 AWESOME (and not all that easy to find) mid-'68 V.U. concert poster from the Pinnacle/Shrine series.
