THE MIDWEST ROCK FESTIVAL - JULY 25, 26 & 27, 1969 in MILWAUKEE, WISCONSIN (Actually held at a one mile long race track arena in WEST ALLIS, WISCONSIN, though the poster typeset printing lists Milwaukee, WI) - First/Only Printing Rock Festival / Concert Poster - 11 1/2" x 34 31/32" - LED ZEPPELIN - BLIND FAITH - JEFF BECK - JOHN MAYALL - JOHNNY WINTER - MC 5 - FIRST EDITION - DELANEY AND BONNIE AND FRIENDS - JOE COCKER - BOB SEGER SYSTEM - BUFFY SAINTE-MARIE - PACIFIC GAS AND ELECTRIC - SHAG -SWEETWATER - TASTE - Plus several local bands, which are listed in typeset lettering at the bottom of the poster - This is a TWO SIDED POSTER, it features blue printing on a thick 67# vellum stock on the Led Zeppelin / Blind Faith side, with green printing on the Jethro Tull / Jeff Beck side - The owner mentioned that a copy of this poster was given to each attendee as they entered the festival, folded in half across the middle - This copy was folded by the owner, after the original "as issued" fold across the center, into 1/4's at one point and since it has yet to experience any restoration work, the heavy fold at the center of each 1/2 (from the the top of the poster) gives the poster a bowed appearance that will likely flatten after it's been under some heavy weight for a fair bit of time or restored - The other two horizontal bends across each half of the poster (when considering the poster's full height of 35 inches) are very light, and since they do not break up the ink on the paper, are difficult to see at first glance - Each of the four corners has a two pronged staple hole, each corner is dinged a bit - The hard horizontal crease unleashed by the owner does create some "hairline" color flaking in the blue background along the edge of the fold, along with some "crow's feet" handling bends which do not detract from the photos and are difficult to spot until one looks closely - The light fold across both the Led Zeppelin photo and the Blind Faith photo do not detract from the impact of the photos and are not easily seen, since they do not disrupt the blue ink background color - An extremely light 2" horizontal wrinkle can be seen if one closely inspects the "Blind Faith" lettering, since it does not interrupt the ink and is bent from the backside - The other side of the poster with the Midwest Rock Festival info mandala reveals some aging in the paper along the right edge, along with a tiny bit of extremely light & difficult to detect foxing at the lower right corner - This green side has a light horizontal crease through the photo of Jeff Beck, with the hard crease below it moving through the cooper black rub-off lettering with the bands' names (color is not disrupted on this side since the poster curves inward into the bend) & the last / bottom horizontal bend is quite light and very difficult to see it's travel across the small photos of Joe Cocker & Shag (it does not cross the small MC 5 stage photo) - An extremely light, remnant moisture stain can barely be seen at the top edge of this green side, in the horizontal anvil shape at the top edge of the mandala design, with tiny spots of the extremely light rust color water stain barely visible upon close inspection along the strong horizontal crease through the center of the mandala of info - The poster has a few minor handling bends at the edges as well - Feel free to inquire about receiving more close-up photos if you're curious - This is the only copy of this poster I've encountered thus far, though someone mentioned that they saw another copy being offered by someone else a few years ago - Will look great in a two sided or single sided frame as is! - Ultra Mega Rare - Beautiful B/B+ to B+ Condition
