Original 1st printing 16&5/8 x 22&1/2" concert poster for Canned Heat appearing with Harvey Mandel from 11/15-16/1968 and the Flamin Groovies appearing with Linn County on 11/17/1968, all shows held at the Bank in Torrance, CA.
Art by Robert A. Wilson, image is featured in the Art of Rock book on page 282 (plate 3.88).
Medium-thick smooth index stock poster is in near mint (A- to A-/B+) condition; really nothing more than a couple of minuscule dings scattered along the right margin and a well-camouflaged soft handling ding or two lurking around the edges, but for the most part it is an EXCEPTIONALLY sharp/clean example of this very topical* late-1968 poster from the Bank.
*Torrance PD was aggressively "monitoring" the venue's parking lot at the time, this poster was sending a BIG message to potential showgoers.
