Texas International Pop Festival, 1969
My Dad donated this amazing poster to my collection. Miraculously, it has survived years of sunlight and dust, as well as a fire in his mid-20s apartment. He and a friend hitch-hiked to the festival for a day (they weren’t yet old enough to drive). Unfortunately, they missed the big acts because they had to be home by dark.
“I remember a lot of hippies, and I remember it was really hot.”
More about the festival from the Dallas Observer, and some Led Zeppelin footage.
