In January 1976 Queen flew to New York for rehearsals ahead of their third American tour, their second as a headlining act.  The thirty-three-date ‘A Night At The Opera’ tour began in Connecticut and concluded six weeks later with four shows in Los Angeles and one in San Diego on March 12th.

The groups seminal “A Night At The Opera” LP was released the same month by Elektra Records and this amazing poster was printed to promote its release in record stores across the country, needless to say it raised eyebrows and was hastily withdrawn.

Here at Pop Classics we’ve been fortunate enough to obtain one of the rare surviving originals so if you’re looking for one drop us a line.
