Habana Jam Cuba – Mike Ponczek / Showco Photo ID Laminate

Shipping calculated at checkout.

One of the rarest pieces in the entire Ponczek archive — an original Habana Jam Cuba photo ID laminate personally issued to Mike "Dr. Funk" Ponczek, Senior Engineer at Showco, for the legendary Havana Jam festival held in Havana, Cuba in March 1979.

This is not just a backstage pass — it's a photo credential bearing Mike's actual photograph, his name, and his band affiliation listed as "Showco". The Havana Jam was a historic, one-of-a-kind event featuring artists including Weather Report, Stephen Stills, the Trio of Doom, and Kris Kristofferson — one of the first major American rock events ever held in Cuba.

Showco provided audio production for the event, and Mike was on the ground in Havana. This laminate is a direct, photographic link to that extraordinary moment in music history — verified provenance, straight from his personal collection.

All proceeds from Mike Ponczek's Closet benefit music industry charities.
