Description
Original 1st printing 8&1/2 x 11" concert flyer for the Grateful ("Greatful") Dead appearing with Sopwith Camel at the Avalon Ballroom in San Francisco, CA from 8/19-20/1966.
Art by Alton Kelley and Stanley Mouse, image is # 22 in the Family Dog/Avalon series.
Thin flat stock flyer is in mint/near mint to near mint (A/A- to A-) condition; if you look REALLY closely, maybe you will spot a microscopic flaw somewhere- but for all intents and purposes, this example is essentially in unimprovable mint shape.
ULTRA-CLEAN example of this early Grateful Dead flyer from the Avalon. As a side note, this was reportedly the same weekend that Warner Brothers' Joe Smith signed the Dead to their recording contract. Historic!
