This is a poster for the 1970 Isle of Wight Festival, held over the August 26th-30th Bank Holiday weekend. It lists the principal artists, including Jimi Hendrix who was to die a few weeks later. The poster was printed in a makeshift workshop on the Festival site. At least 600,000 people turned up to the Festival farmland site, but many watched for free from a hill outside the boundary fence, and the resulting recrimination caused the end of festivals on the island at that time.
