Description

 Original 1st printing 13&7/8 x 21&1/8" concert poster for Hot Tuna (featuring Jorma Kaukonen and Jack Casady of Jefferson Airplane) appearing with the Cleanliness and Godliness Skiffle Band and "Special Guest Stars" the Grateful Dead at the Veteran's Memorial Building in Santa Rosa, CA from 6/27-28/1969 and at the Barn in Rio Nido, CA on 6/29/1969. 

 Art by Lee Conklin, the image (sometimes referred to as "Ear Head") is featured in the Art of Rock book on page 229 (plate 2.329). 

 Medium-thick flat index stock poster is in good to very good (B to B/B+) condition; there is a small 1/2" diagonal/square wedge of paper missing from the top right corner tip, along with a couple of tiny pressure dings and a tiny nip tear or two scattered around the outer margin area, a 1/2" diagonal bend in the lower left corner tip, a few soft handling dings and a tiny pin prick smudge/stress crease or two hiding within the image area, otherwise it is a VERY nice-looking example of this somewhat scarce (and very much in-demand) Grateful Dead image from the AOR.
