Original 1st printing 17 x 22&3/8" concert poster for the Steve Miller Band appearing with Alexander's Timeless Blooze Band and Baptized by Fire at the Hippodrome in San Diego, CA from 6/14-15/1968.
Art by Rebecca Galdeano, image is featured in the Art of Rock book on page 286 (plate 3.100).
Medium-thick flat index stock poster is in decent/used (B/B- to B-) condition; there are tack holes (all four corners and top/bottom center margins), along with a pair of fairly pronounced horizontal/diagonal bends traversing the image area, a bit of relatively minor corner-tip creasing, a few light surface smudges/pin-prick spots and a stray stress bend or two hiding within the image area and the revese side has a LARGE magic-marker drawing and several pieces of clear tape scattered around the outer margin area (see photo), but overall it's still in presentable shape.
VERY hard-to-find poster from this short-lived Southern California venue. For more on the background of the Hippodrome, here's an interesting overview;
