Janis Joplin Concert Poster 1969 Chicago w/Cartoon Graphics

http://www.postercentral.com A really fun, original Janis Joplin concert advertising poster for her show at Chicago’s Auditorium Theatre on November 23, 1969. This outrageously fun poster was designed by Jayzey Lynch, aka Jay Lynch, a contemporary of legendary comic artist R. Crumb. The theme of this Janis Joplin appearance poster follows the theme of Big Brother & the Holding Company’s “Cheap Thrills” album. In this way, it’s an homage to Crumb’s work, and Joplin’s biggest recorded moment with her previous band. This paper Janis Joplin window poster measures approximately 17 by 21 inches, and was definitely printed before the show to sell tickets. As you can see in this video, there is also an advertisement on the back for a new, portable cassette deck available for under $20. This Janis Joplin concert advertisement is shown to you today by Pete Howard, a poster collector living on California’s central coast.
