Description
The original Cream concert poster by F. Bettencourt captures the spirit of the late 1960s psychedelic movement. Created for a show presented by Jim Salzer at the Showgrounds, this poster announces an unforgettable lineup: British rock legends Cream, alongside blues musicians Taj Mahal and the James Cotton Blues Band. This lineup was a testament to the era's fascination with blending rock and blues, pushing musical boundaries and bringing together artists from diverse genres.
Cream, known for their powerful mix of rock, blues, and psychedelic sounds, was at the peak of their career during this period. The trio, featuring Eric Clapton, Jack Bruce, and Ginger Baker, was celebrated for hits like "Sunshine of Your Love" and "White Room," as well as for their improvisational, experimental style that redefined rock music. Their influence on the development of psychedelic rock and blues-rock made them one of the most innovative and respected bands of the time.
Supporting acts Taj Mahal and the James Cotton Blues Band added an extra layer of depth to the concert. Taj Mahal’s unique approach to the blues incorporated global influences, fusing elements of African, Caribbean, and Hawaiian music into his sound. Meanwhile, the James Cotton Blues Band brought pure, electrifying blues, rooted in Cotton's powerful harmonica skills and his experience with legends like Muddy Waters. Together, these musicians created a blend of rock and blues that captivated audiences and reflected the adventurous spirit of the 1960s music scene.
F. Bettencourt’s poster design embodies the visual aesthetics of the psychedelic era, a style characterized by bright colors, surreal imagery, and intricate patterns. Posters from this period were not just promotional materials but artistic expressions that captured the experimental and rebellious energy of the counterculture. Psychedelic posters were often collected as mementos, preserving the cultural essence of a transformative period in music history.
This original poster by Bettencourt has since become a sought-after collector’s item, appreciated for both its artistic value and its historical significance. It stands as a vivid reminder of a legendary concert and an era when music and visual art came together to define the ethos of a generation.

We want everybody’s Vinterior experience to be seamless, so both buyers and sellers can fall in love with pre-loved. We designed our Terms of sale to treat everybody fairly.
However, sometimes things don’t go exactly to plan, and you may need to cancel or return an order.
To prevent this, we encourage you to check listings, photos and descriptions carefully before you buy. If you aren’t sure about a piece’s condition, size, provenance or shipping, just ask; click Contact seller to get in touch. Always contact your seller first if you have any queries, at any point in your purchase.
Our buyers receive the same protection when buying from all our sellers, both professional and verified.
Can I cancel an order?
There are many reasons why you might need to cancel an order, and you'll often be entitled to a refund. To cancel an order, click Create cancellation on the order page.
If you cancel your order before it has been dispatched, you will receive a full refund - including delivery costs. However, if your item has been shipped, delivery costs will not be included in your refund.
Please note: orders of bespoke, personalised or made-to-order pieces cannot be cancelled.
Can I return an order?
We understand that sometimes a piece isn’t the perfect fit. So if you no longer want your order, our returns process will ensure it finds a new home fast.
The Vinterior Guarantee included with your purchase entitles you to 14-day returns - allowing you to return any item within 14 days of the delivery date (except in specific circumstances, detailed below).
You can return your order if...
It isn't what you expected
If what arrives isn’t what you ordered, you can open a return. Just send us some photo evidence that the listing was inaccurate, misleading or misrepresented your purchased piece, and you’ll receive a refund.
You change your mind
If you don’t feel a piece is right for your space, you can return it. Once you request a change of mind return, you’ll be responsible for shipping the piece back to your seller as soon as possible. Delivery costs are non-refundable.
It's damaged in transit
In the rare event that an item arrives damaged or defective, you have a full 30 days from the date of delivery to return it for a full refund.
If your purchase arrives broken, always let us know. If Proovia delivered the piece, we can raise an insurance claim on the seller’s behalf. Or, the seller can raise a claim with their chosen courier.
What can't I return?
Just as there are some orders you can’t cancel, there are some you cant return, too. Personalised, bespoke or made-to-order pieces are non-returnable, and non-refundable. Sellers may also reject your return if the item has been altered in any way.
Please note: pieces on our site are pre-loved, not new. They may show some wear and tear; this is not sufficient grounds for a refund, unless the seller has misrepresented the item’s condition.
Lastly, neither Vinterior nor our sellers are liable for any damages or loss sustained in transit via third parties.
I'm eligible for a return. Now what?
To initiate a return, log into your Vinterior account, then go to the relevant order page and click Create a return. In the return request, be sure to include all the details: the reason for your return, an in-depth description, and photos of any issues or damage.
How will I receive my refund?
Once the seller confirms they’ve received the item (in the same condition it was sent), we will send your refund to your original payment method.
All items are inspected on return. If the seller receives the return with damage they don’t recognise, we will not be able to process your refund and the seller may need to send the piece back to you. You will be required to cover these delivery costs.
