Screen-printed poster for the Second Celtic Music Festival in Selb, Upper Franconia, Germany. The concert on 27 October 1979 marked “jazz pop & folk № 25” within the Rosenthal Feierabende, a series of cultural events sponsored by Rosenthal, the local manufacturer of chinaware.

The participating bands and artists were the Tannahill Weavers (Scotland), Wild Geese (Ireland), Ar Bleizi Ruz & Patrick Ewen (Brittany), and Joe & Antoinette McKenna (Ireland).

Primitive started life at Farmer, Little & Co, New York, in 1886. In Germany, it was also know under the name Alt-Englisch (“Old English”). Secondary text is set in all-lowercase Akzidenz-Grotesk.
