About this poster
The very beginning of the first run of this image was done on an ochre (yellow) stock. The lead printer changed it to a more absorbent (to prevent smudging) but a bit thinner and larger white stock soon after the run began.
This is a mint "printer's reject" of the first run of the 1968 Carousel Ballroom poster featuring Big Brother and the Holding Co. and the Youngbloods. I was one of the printers back then so I can vouch for its authenticity. What makes this a reject can be seen in a detailed picture. You can see some light smudging caused by over-inking in a couple of areas. But the smudges are of minimal consequence to the overall image.
