A 1971 concert poster with Elton John on the bill (New York State).
About this 1971 concert poster
Concert posters are often the only surviving record of a particular line-up on a particular night. This poster advertised a 1971 show in New York. In the 1970s, rock moved into arenas and its posters became bigger, bolder and more graphic. Many concert posters listed several bands, capturing who shared the stage on a given night. By the 1970s, concert promotion moved to arenas and stadiums, and posters advertised ever larger shows. Many 1960s concert posters were designed to be hung in shop windows around town in the days before the show.
Styling this vintage concert poster
This 1971 poster for Elton John brings a slice of 1970s music history to the wall. At 24×36″ it becomes a statement piece, while 11×14″ or 12×18″ fits shelves, desks and gallery walls. A black or antique-gold frame suits this vintage concert poster well and keeps the focus on the image. For a gallery wall, pair this vintage concert poster with two or three smaller prints, spaced 2–3 inches (5–8 cm) apart. For the most natural view, place the centre of this vintage concert poster at eye level, around 57 inches (145 cm) high.
