Description

Original 1st printing 16&7/8 x 21&7/8" concert/event poster for the John Sinclair Freedom Rally,  held at Crisler Arena on the campus of the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor, MI on 12/10/1971.

 Performers/speakers listed include: John Lennon and Yoko Ono, Archie Shepp & Roswell Rudd with CJQ, Phil Ochs, Up, Commander Cody and His Lost Planet Airmen, Joy of Cooking and David Peel, Rennie Davis, Allen Ginsberg, Father James Groppi, Sheila Murphy, Jerry Rubin, Ed Sanders (the Fugs), Bobby Seale (Black Panthers), Leni Sinclair, Marge Tabankin and Jonnie Lee Tillmon.

 Art by Gary Grimshaw, image is featured in the Art of Rock book on page 395 (plate 4.194).

 Medium-thick flat vellum stock poster is in good to very good (B to B/B+) condition; there are pin holes in all four corners and in the left/right/top/bottom center margins, along with a semi-pronounced horizontal center crease, a 2" diagonal bend in the lower right corner, a touch of handling/edge wear and a couple of tiny pin-prick spots along the bottom margin, otherwise fine.

 REALLY cool-looking early 1970's Gary Grimshaw poster from one of the most important political events held in Ann Arbor up to that point.
