Description

Original 1st printing 22 x 36" silkscreen event merchandising poster for Janis Joplin appearing at the 1st Atlanta International Pop Festival, held at Atlanta International Raceway from 7/3-4/1969.

 Designer unknown/not credited (image taken from a photo by Bob Seidemann), medium-thick flat vellum stock silkscreen poster (printed with florescent/day-glo ink) stock poster is in very good to excellent (B/B+ to B+) condition; there are tack holes in all four corner tips, along with a trace of edge toning with a few stray pin-prick age spots scattered around the outer margins, a thin horizontal/diagonal bend along the upper right margin, a couple of tiny edge tears along the bottom margin, a whisper of handling/surface wear and a set of tape pulls with a bit of age spotting on the reverse, otherwise fine.

 ULTRA-COOL LOOKING 1969 Janis Joplin poster from the 1969 Atlanta Pop Festival, this is one of a series of four different merchandising posters featuring the Festival headliners (others in the series are for Led Zeppelin, Johnny Winter and Canned Heat) that were sold at the festival. They don't often turn up, and they are usually in pretty compromised condition- this one is REALLY nice. Check out Janis' set HERE:
