Description

 Original 1st printing 13&5/8 x 20&1/2" concert poster for James Taylor appearing with Pentangle on 5/29/1970 and the Jimi Hendrix Experiernce appearing on 5/30/1970 (*two shows), both promoted by Bill Graham Presents and held at the Berkeley Community Theatre in Berkeley, CA.

 Medium flat vellum stock poster is in excellent (B+) condition; really noting more than a bit of minor creasing/handling wear along the left/right margins, a few soft pinch dings here and there, a whisper of surface dirt and a nearly-invisible ghost impression on the reverse side from another poster, otherwise it is a VERY sharp example overall.

 While this piece may not win any awards in the psychedelic design department, the historical significance ("Jimi Plays Berkeley" was filmed at these shows) kinda outweighs the somewhat limited/basic format. Here's Jimi and the Experience careening through Chuck Berry's classic "Johnny B. Goode";
