Description
Original 1st printing 12&1/4 x 19&7/8" concert poster for rock n' roll pioneer Bo Diddley appearing with the Sons of Adam on 8/5/1966 and again with the Sons of Adam and Chicago blues legend Little Walter on 8/7/1966, both at Longshoreman's Hall in San Francisco, CA (*shows were most likely canceled/rescheduled).
Art by (and SIGNED in pencil by) Stanley Mouse, image is # 20 in the Family Dog/Avalon series.
Medium flat vellum stock poster is in good (B) condition; there are staple/tack holes in all four corners, in the top/bottom center and left/right margins and one or two hiding within the outer edges of the image area, along with a light to moderate degree of toning, a pair of small dark stains in the upper left corner of the image area (bleed-through from a long horizontal drip stain on the reverse side), a few stray handling dings, a couple of tiny corner-tip edge creases and the previously-mentioned drip stain on the reverse, otherwise it is a fine-looking lightly-aged (and most likely displayed in public in 1966) example of this early non-Avalon Family Dog piece with a nice big fat Mouse signature.
Unlike most of the early numbered FD posters, this image was never reprinted.
