Billed as 'Iowa's Smartest Ballroom,' Danceland opened its doors in Cedar Rapids in 1928; the dance hall was a hotspot for hitmakers throughout the decades until its closure in 1968. This poster, and several other Danceland posters created by artist Andy Jennings, was featured in the book The Midwest Rock Art Collection. Jennings's work has been recognized as art and these posters have appeared all across the U.S. including in Hard Rock Casinos.
