About this 1967 concert poster
Concert posters are often the only surviving record of a particular line-up on a particular night. This poster advertised a 1967 show at the Grande Ballroom. The Grande Ballroom in Detroit was the Midwest’s leading psychedelic rock venue in the late 1960s. The late 1960s saw a boom in psychedelic poster art, with swirling hand-drawn lettering and clashing colours. Some 1960s concert posters were designed so the lettering was deliberately hard to read, inviting a second look. Many concert posters listed several bands, capturing who shared the stage on a given night.
Styling this vintage concert poster
For fans of James Cotton Blues Band, this 1967 poster from the Grande Ballroom is a striking way to bring live-music history home. Hang it at eye level, about 57 inches (145 cm) to its centre; 18×24″ is a versatile size for most walls. A black or antique-gold frame suits this vintage concert poster well and keeps the focus on the image. This vintage concert poster also anchors a gallery wall well; surround it with smaller pieces at even 2–3 inch gaps.
