VU POSTERS AT HIPPODROME SAN DIEGO STAFF OFFICE 1968

Post by alfredovu »

A RARE opportunity to see actual VU posters hanging on walls during the 60´s

This shot is from 1968 Hippodrome San Diego Translove Airways staff, production company created when they got the Hippodrome Ballroom in 1968.

You can see hanging on the wall the Posters for the June 14-15, 1968 with Clover, Maya.
And the one for the July 5-6, 1968 with Quicksilver Messenger Service.

Thanks for sharing Alfredo.

Agreed. I think they were probably at their musical best at that point during the summer of '68.
