Description

 

Original 1st printing 8&1/2 x 11" concert/event flyer for the 1st Grope For Peace, a benefit (*"to help a tribal member" -presumably for a bust) featuring the (Amazing) Charlatans appearing with Big Brother and the Holding Company (featuring Janis Joplin), Lynne Hughes, the Final Solution and Congress of Wonders at the Ark in Sausalito, CA on 12/26/1966.
 
 Art by Stanley Mouse, image is featured in the Art of Rock book on page 171 (plate 2.130).
 
 Medium-thin textured stock poster is in good to very good (B to B/B+) condition; there are tack/pin holes in all four corners and in the top center margin, along with a 2&1/2" diagonal bend along the upper right margin, a few pin-prick spots/light handling dings here and there, a pair of glue residue smears on the reverse side and the "Grope for Peace Mystic Research Foundation" lettering at the top, along with a couple of the artistic embellishments around the edges of the design have been HAND-COLORED with art markers (unknown who colored it in, presumably not Mouse), otherwise fine. 

 Cool-looking original late-'66 hippie concert artifact from the good people at the Northern California Psychedelic Cattlemen's Association (a collective made up of several original Family Dog partners).
