AUCTION - Led Zeppelin - MC5 Sun Ra - 1969 Postcard - Grande Ballroom - Near Mint Minus

This postcard up for auction is from the Grande Ballroom in Detroit, MI. Promoter Russ Gibb left behind a magnificent body of excellent artwork as his legacy, and this is one of the rarest postcards of them all. Led Zeppelin, MC5, Sun Ra, and the Golden Earrings all played on May 16-18, 1969. Led Zeppelin was a last-minute addition to the bill and Detroit artist Gary Grimshaw had already submitted the artwork to the printers. This meant that Led Zeppelin had to be added to the bill, with a revised lineup, along with the door price all on the reverse of the postcard. These postcards were essentially run through the printer twice and subsequently became the rarest version of the card. Postcards without Led Zeppelin printed on it were already being distributed in Detroit, so they hastily added the info to the remaining postcards, yet to be distributed. Super rare and super desirable. The Golden Earrings, incidentally, were on their first trip to America From Holland, several years before "Radar Love" took over our airwaves, and they dropped the "S" from their name. This Led Zeppelin, MC5, Sun Ra, and Golden Earrings postcard measures 4" x 7". The piece is in Near Mint Minus condition, with just some soft corner tips. So very hard to find.
