"We are excited to offer the first-ever and only official reprint of the famous poster promoting The Velvet Underground's gig in the summer of 1970 at Max's, their first appearance in New York City in three years. It was designed to resemble a subway car ad by Steve Nelson, a friend of the band from his days as manager of The Boston Tea Party and owner of The Woodrose Ballroom, where combined The Velvets played more often during those three years than in any other venue. Steve is working with us to produce this authorized version of the poster, and will sign it if you desire.

The original poster was printed in a run of just 1,000 and is highly prized by collectors, selling for well over $1000 when it rarely becomes available. This full-sized reprint is 11" high by almost 29" long. The print run will be limited to 500. Including shipping and handling, it is available now for just $50 signed by Steve.
