Original 1st printing 22 x 14&7/8" concert poster for Blind Faith (featuring Eric Clapton, Steve Winwood, Ginger Baker and Ric Grech) appearing with Delaney & Bonnie and Friends and Taste (featuring Rory Gallagher) at Varsity Stadium in Toronto, Ontario, Canada on 7/18/1969.
Design by Dream Machine, Ltd., medium-thin glossy stock poster is in decent (B/B-) condition; there is a pronounced vertical center crease, along with tack holes/tape remnants in all four corners, a light to moderate amount of handling wear/creasing, small bits of clear tape in the left/right center margins, a bit of mild toning, a pair of thin diagonal bends (each about 7-8" long) along the upper left/right margins and a set of decent-sized tape pulls on the reverse side, otherwise OK.... a bit worn, but still quite presentable and not an easy find.
According to one source, low turnout from this event was later used as leverage by the promoters (Brower & Walker) to persuade Eric Clapton to recruit John Lennon for the Toronto Rock & Roll Revival (held several months later at the same stadium). Historic piece with a great design!
