Original 1st printing 14&1/2 x 20&1/2" event poster for the 7/15-16/1967 Fantasy Faire and Magic Music Festival, held at Devonshire Downs, outside of Los Angeles, CA.
Poster lists appearances by the Doors, Jefferson Airplane, Country Joe & the Fish, Grass Roots, Canned Heat, Iron Butterfly, B.F.D. Blues Band and more. (*MANY additional bands performed at this event, including Kaleidoscope (with David Lindley), the Factory with Richie Hayward and Lowell George), New Delhi River Band (with David Nelson, later of NRPS (and MANY more.)
Art by Penny Havard, medium-thick flat index stock poster is in near mint to excellent (A-/B+ to B+) condition; just a couple of hairline-thin creases in the upper left margin/corner, a tiny 1/4" bend in the bottom left corner tip, a well-camouflaged handling ding or two lurking within the image area and a razor-thin sliver of toning/discoloration along the extreme lower left margin, otherwise it is a GORGEOUS example of this very cool mid-'67 festival poster with a great design (*recycled at least twice for different events) and an eclectic psychedelic rock & roll lineup.
Check out a personal recollection of the event (with a You Tube link to the original radio spot) HERE:
