Item Description
14-3/8x21" on thin lightly coated card stock. Hand screened by Jeff Ross and intended to be used by venues hosting the band during their small American club tour in 1990 promoting their debut album Bleach. These were produced in limited number, likely around 100 for the 1990 tour. A darker yellow example was also produced. Ross utilized an image from Sub Pop photographer Charles Peterson of Kurt Cobain during a gig at the University of Washington on Jan. 6, 1990. The posters were distributed by Sub Pop and the band and are among the most impressive looking posters of the era. Paper is slightly wavy. There is a very faint moisture mark in the cream field at lower right, a tiny chip of missing paper at lower right and a staple hole in each of the other three corners. Technically Fine but displays above grade. Of the relatively few examples we have encountered (less than 20) most have significant damage, and many have had the bottom blank area trimmed away. This example has strong color and the tiny defect at bottom right will easily frame out.
