Original 1st printing 1st state (no acts listed) 13&5/8 x 22&3/8" concert/event poster for the Woodstock Music and Arts Fair Aquarian Exposition in Walkill (*moved to White Lake), NY on 8/15-17.1969.

 Art by David Byrd, image (along with the final White Lake offset version) is featured in the Art of Rock book on page 257 (plate 3.2)

 While this early 1st state poster advertises no acts, performers at the now-legendary 3-day event included: Joan Baez, Arlo Guthrie, Tim Hardin, Richie Havens, the Incredible String Band, Bert Sommer, Ravi Shankar, Sweetwater, Canned Heat, Creedence Clearwater (Revival), the Grateful Dead, Jefferson Airplane, Santana, Keef Hartley, the Who, Janis Joplin, Mountain, the Band, Joe Cocker & the Grease Band, Blood, Sweat & Tears, Johnny Winter, Crosby Stills, Nash & Young, Ten Years After, Sly & the Family Stone, Country Joe & the Fish, the Paul Butterfield Blues Band, John Sebastian, Quill and Sha-Na-Na.

 Medium glossy-coated index stock poster is in very good to excellent (B/B+ to B+) condition; there is an approximately 3/8" wedge tear with a bit of surface rubbing in the outer black border of the left side of the image area (about 8" up from the bottom margin); there is a nearly-identical, but much smaller mark right across the image in the white border on the right side and both have thin vertical scratches/indentations right beneath them (possibly from the press, but I can't tell...); there is also a light amount of VERY subtle vertical surface scratching along the lower left/right margins, a tiny pinch ding/fingerprint smudge or two here and there and a couple of tiny soft corner tip bumps, otherwise fine... it actually looks pretty sharp overall.

A great-looking example of this ICONIC original 1969 event poster, we also have the matching card/handbill listed separately.
