An authentic 1969 concert poster for the 8-date Jimi Hendrix Experience Tour in Germany That was canceled.., with the famous “wire-hair” image designed by poster artist Günther Kieser.  A true masterpiece of beautiful design and colors that demands respect almost half-a-century later. It remains one of the most enduring images, of any kind, from the psychedelic Sixties.  Produced by promoters Horst Lippmann and Fritz Rau.Poster was created using an official b/w photograph of Jimi by Donald Silverstein.
This example is an original Darien House poster, also known as the Stuttgart poster. It was sold as a souvenir at the April-May 1969 US concerts. The story is that Kieser’s image turned out to be so popular with the public that it was decided to have the poster reproduced but with an imaginary date and venue as not to confuse it with the original concert posters (the same thing was done with Kieser’s Fleetwood Mac poster the following year). The poster was distributed by Jack Rennert’s Darien House in New York and subsequently sold at the Spring 1969 US shows. Rennart was a huge fan of Kieser’s art and had distributed his posters in America years before the Hendrix poster.
Piece measures 25 5/16" x 35 3/8" and is in fair to good condition for its age.
pinholes and corner tears.w/ some edge wear
Color is still Vibrant.

This is one of the most sought-after images in the poster-collecting field. Gunther Kieser created this masterpiece for a January 19, 1969 performance in Stuttgart, Germany. The original poster carries the correct concert date of January 19, 1969 in the lower portion, while the merchandise posters carry an incorrect date of January 15 (Hendrix was in Berlin that day). Due to the tremendous popularity of this image, it has been printed at least four times and bootlegged several more. The originals are excessively rare and command well over $15,000, even for a damaged copy.
