Description

Original 1st (black and white pre-concert) printing 22&1/2 x 17&1/2" concert poster for "BUSTED!", a benefit for the San Francisco Mime Troupe, held at the Fillmore Auditorium in San Francisco, CA on 4/12/1967.

 The Bill Graham-sponsored event featured performances by the Grateful Dead, Jefferson Airplane, Moby Grape, Quicksilver Messenger Service, Andrew Staples and Loading Zone.

 Art by Stanley Mouse and Alton Kelley, image is featured in the Art of Rock on page 151 (plate 2.71).

 Medium flat index stock poster is in used (B-) condition; there is an approximately 5 x1/2" diagonal sliver of paper missing from the lower left margin, along with a couple of large vertical tears, thin bends and creases scattered along the bottom margin, light to moderate handling wear, several randomly-placed pin/tack holes (all four corners/lower right margin), a pair of  razor-thin diagonal creases in the lower left quadrant, a moderate amount of creasing along the top margin... definitely on the used side and more of an artifact than a collectible, but still a (mostly) presentable example.
