Description

 Original 1st printing 16&3/4 x 21&7/8" concert/event poster for the Second Annual Saugatuck Pop Festival, held at Pottawatamie Beach near Saugatuck, MI from 7/4-5/1969.

 Acts listed include: SRC, Procol Harum, MC5, Muddy Waters, John Lee Hooker, Rotary Connection, Crazy World of Arthur Brown, Bob Seger, Frost, the Stooges (featuring Iggy Pop), Big Mama Thornton, Savage Grace, Caste, the Amboy Dukes (with Ted Nugent), Red White & Blues, Frut of the Loom and Brownsville Station.

 Art by Carl Lundgren, image is featured in the Art of Rock book on page 303 (plate 3.157). 

 Medium-thick flat vellum stock poster is in good/decent (B to B/B-) condition; there are three (3) semi-pronounced horizontal folds/bends traversing the image area through the middle of the globe, along the top edge of "Amboy Dukes" and "Rotary Connection" and going through "Pottawamie Beach", along with a 1&1/2" vertical tear (sealed on the reverse with clear tape) and a 2" diagonal bend in the top center margin, a few tiny edge creases/bends and a nip tear or two scattered around the outer margin area, a bit of surface dirt/light staining in the upper right margin and a few tiny stress bends/handling creases hiding within the image area, otherwise fine- most of the conditional issues on this example are fairly well-camouflaged, it is actually quite a nice-looking specimen.

VERY hard-to-find (and frequently-requested) original 1969 Pop Festival poster from Michigan.
