Original 1st printing 12&1/4 x 21&3/8" concert/event poster for Monterey International Pop Festival, held at the Monterey (CA) County Fairgrounds from 6/16-18/1967.

 Although no bands/acts are listed, the 3-day event featured appearances by: the Association, Laura Nyro, Blues Project, the Paupers, Buffalo Springfield (with David Crosby), the Byrds, Simon & Garfunkel, Steve Miler Blues Band, Quicksilver Messenger Service, Al Kooper & Friends, Electric Flag, Canned Heat, Grateful Dead, Big Brother & the Holding Company (with Janis Joplin), Jefferson Airplane, Otis Redding with Booker T. & the MG's, The Who, Jimi Hendrix Experience, Country Joe & the Fish, Paul Butterfield Blues Band, Beverley, Lou Rawls, Eric Burdon & the Animals, High Masekela and the Mamas & the Papas (with Scott McKenzie).

 Design by Tom Wilkes, image is featured in the Art of Rock on page 258 (plate 3.5).

 Medium-thick silver foil-coated smooth index stock poster is in decent/used (B/B- to B-) condition; there are FOUR pronounced horizontal bends running through the poster with a couple of tiny pin-prick splits in the foil, along with a 1/2" bend in the upper right corner, a few thin diagonal bends in the lower left margin, corner, a few tiny pin-prick surface scuffs on the "8" of "18" and a couple of light surface scratches hiding within the image area, otherwise OK.

While this one has some conditional issues, it's a relatively affordable original 1st printing example of the small-version Monterey Pop poster.
