Original 1st printing 16&7/8 x 22&1/2" concert poster for Traffic (featuring Steve Winwood) appearing with the Electric Flag and Steppenwolf at the Earl Warren Showgrounds in Santa Barbara, CA on 4/6/1968.
Art by Frank Bettencourt, image is featured in the Art of Rock book on page 267 (plate 3.43) and is part of the Jim Salzer Presents series.
Medium-thin glossy stock poster is in very good to excellent (B/B+ to B+) condition; there is a thin horizontal roll crease traversing the upper border, along with a couple of tiny edge nicks/dings scattered around the outer margin area, a light amount of handling wear, a couple of tiny corner-tip bends and a tiny stress crease or two hiding within the image area, otherwise fine.
Very presentable example of this ultra-vibrant early-'68 poster from the Salzer series; check out a great informative list of 1960's-era shows (including this one) held at the Earl Warren Showgrounds:
