Original Midwest Sixties
Rock N' Roll Band Posters
|
We lucked into a once in a lifetime haul, acquiring a small quantity of original ultra cool rock n’ roll band dance posters from a Nebraska dance promoter who had a stash of posters 1961-69! Faithful readers of KICKS, LOST AND FOUND, etc. will revel in the coolness of these early combo graphics! Local dance posters are swingin’ for big bucks, so this is a chance to pick up on some killers for great prices! Posters are in great shape, all flat & unfolded since the day they were printed! Prices are based on swankness/available stock/combo status & all that. Group names like the Sonics and Teen Beats were common in the early sixties so don’t confuse these moaxes with some of yer mo’ popular faves! All posters are paper stock except where noted & are mailed rolled.
