Description

Original 1st printing 17 x 22&1/8" concert/event poster for the First Annual Detroit Rock & Roll Revival, held at the Michigan State Fairgrounds on 5/30-31/1969.

 Acts listed include: MC5, Chuck Berry, Sun Ra, Dr. John the Night Tripper, Johnny Winter, the (Psychedelic) Stooges (featuring Iggy Pop), Lyman Woodard Trio, Red, White & Blues Band, David Peel & the Lower East Side, Third Power, Savage Grace, Teegarden & Vanwinkle, Terry Reid, the Amboy Dukes (with Ted Nugent), SRC, Frost, the James Gang (with Joe Walsh), the Rationals, UP, New York Rock & Roll Ensemble, Wilson Mower Pursuit and more.

 Art by Gary Grimshaw, image is featured in the Art of Rock book on page 298 (plate 3.138).

 Medium-thick glossy-coated index stock poster is in very good (B/B+) condition; there are tack holes (all four corners), along with a moderate amount of corner-tip creasing, a series of thin hairline creases/bends and a few tiny pin-prick surface spots scattered around the outer margin area, a couple of nearly-invisible surface scratches and soft handling dings hiding within the image area, a few tiny pin-prick glue residue spots around "First Annual" and a set of tape pulls on the reverse side, otherwise fine.

 Overall, a very decent-looking example of this always-popular Gary Grimshaw-designed multi-act/festival item from Detroit.
