Nigel Mentzel Posters

In the 1980s, a British poster collector named Nigel Mentzel redid the UFO Club poster. He copied the art from the original poster, but enlarged the name Pink Floyd and put it at the top of the list of bands on the poster. He also added the bands Cream, Tyrannousaurus Rex with Marc Bolan, Soft Machine, Incredible String Band, and John's Children to the poster. The Move and the show dates are no longer listed.
