An exceptionally rare poster from Van Halen’s World Invasion Tour 1980, commemorating their European tour stop in Paris, France.

It is printed on very thin stock, emphasizing its uniqueness and rarity.
Additional Information: The 1980 World Invasion Tour, also known as the "Party 'til You Die" Tour, was Van Halen's third concert tour and supported their album "Women and Children First." The tour showcased their high-energy performances across North America, Europe, and Japan, solidifying Van Halen's reputation as one of the premier rock bands of the era.
Provenance/Authenticity: For over forty years, Nick D’Andrea was more than a fan—he was a fixture in the Van Halen inner circle. Dubbed the "#1 Van Halen Guy" by the band members themselves, D’Andrea’s collection was built through a deep personal friendship with the Van Halen family. With a veteran history of 400+ shows, D’Andrea’s archive represents a rare, direct pipeline to the band, featuring items gifted to him throughout their legendary career.
Condition: The poster is in good to fair condition, with noticeable wear including torn and missing corners, surface wear, small surface holes, edge tears, pinholes, age discoloration, spider veins, and signs of tape repair and residue. These condition issues are typical of age, storage, and use but do not detract from its rarity and collectible nature.
