Original 1st printing 15 x 22&1/2" concert poster for the MC5 headlining two weekends of December 1966 shows at the Grande Ballroom in Detroit, MI.

 Appearing with the '5; Green Grass Blues (12/22), with Urban Roots on (12/23), Black & Blues Band (12/29), Taboos (12/30) and a big New Year's Eve show with Thyme, Cosmic Expanding and Poor Souls (12/31)

 Art by Gary Grimshaw, image is # 10 in the Russ Gibb Presents/Grande series. 

 Medium flat vellum stock poster has been partially restored to good/decent (B to B/B-) condition; there is a large 4" vertical tear (sealed on the reverse) going from the lower left/center margin (just below "you must") into the "oc" of "Society", along with paper replacement in the corner tips, numerous flattened thin bends going through the image area, a series of light surface stains/smudges scattered throughout the image area, a bit of edge creasing, several areas of surface touch-up and a bit of staining/toning on the reverse... definitely a bit of work on this one, but it has been brought back to presentable condition. 

 One of Grimshaw's earliest Grande Ballroom images, complete with the original "Uncle Russ Travel Agency" logo! VERY cool-looking original late-'66 1st printing Grande poster that doesn't turn up very frequently.
