Approx. 24"w x 36"h image size (overall print size is 26”w x 40” h), one from a unumbered edition of 100 total proof prints printed on 80# Finch Fine Antique Bright White Archival (acid-free) paper stock. Printed in 8 colors, using soy-based inks, and each press proof print also includes the printer's registration markings in the margins (see picture, below), certifying that these are “the real deal”. It is signed in pen by the artist, John Van Hamersveld.
These are proof prints of the same first-edition posters that were sold UNSIGNED (but numbered) at the venue, with one big exception – these are SIGNED by JVH!
Please note – these prints are from the artist’s own reserve collection, so when they’re gone, they’re gone!
Shipped unmatted/unframed
This poster features another take on the ‘56 Chevy hood ornament that was featured on the controversial front cover of the Blind Faith album cover. In addition to the 2009 prints, JVH was commissioned to produce the commemorative poster for the Eric Clapton/Steve Winwood reunion concerts that were staged at NY’s Madison Square Garden in February of 2008 and also for their 2010 European tour (click to see those items).
John Van Hamersveld, well-known for his psychedelic poster work on the West Coast (remember his great Jimi Hendrix and surf culture posters done in a style similar to this?), created this commemorative prints for the Clapton/Winwood 2009 reunion tour that took place during June of '09, beginning in East Rutherford, NJ and ending in Los Angeles. Loyal Clapton, Winwood and Blind Faith fans will find this special print right perfect for their home or office music listening area...
The three performances at MSG were taped and packaged on CD/DVD as Clapton & Winwood: Live From
Madison
Square
Garden.
Fans were treated to samples of the duo’s work together in Blind Faith (“Presence of the Lord”, “Glad/Well..All Right: and “Can’t Find My Way Home”), some of their respective band and solo efforts (Winwood with “Pearly Queen” and “Dear Mr. Fantasy”, Clapton with “After Midnight” and “Crossroads”) and songs by their mutual friend Jimi Hendrix, including “Changes” and awesome versions of “Voodoo Child” and “Little Wing”. It seemed clear that the two enjoyed working together, enough so that they decided to do it again in 2009 (and 2010)!
