Original 1st printing 14 x 22" poster for "Psychedelic Burlesque", a multi-media burlesque show held at the Mayfair Theatre in New York City from 4/1-?/1968.
Art by "El Gato", medium-thin cardboard stock hand-pulled silkscreen poster is in very good (B/B+) condition; there are a couple of thin diagonal bends/hairline creases in the upper left corner and along the top margin, along with a couple of tiny thin edge bends, light surface wear (a few stray scratches/smudges here and there), a small tape pull/mark along the upper right margin, a few tiny edge/corner-tip dings scattered around the outer margin area and a small tape mark on the reverse, otherwise fine.
BEAUTIFULLY printed silkscreen poster (printed with a combination of day-glo florescent, gold and thick black enamel ink) from what sounds like a pretty unique (and presumably short-lived) show. Check out a great flashback from the 3/7/1968 issue of "Village Voice" about rehearsals/auditions for the show HERE:
