This street poster advertises a “No Wave” rock concert to raise money to
print the third issue of X Magazine. Some of the groups that performed
— the Contortions and DNA – were later recorded by Brian Eno for the
seminal “No New York” album. This poster is not to be confused with the
similar-looking, smaller version that was featured as the centerfold in the third issue of X Magazine
and thanked the bands for their help. The item for sale here is the
original; it is larger, printed on better paper, and exceedingly rare. Poster available from 98 Bowery.
