Original 1st printing 9&7/8 x 14" small concert poster for Big Brother & the Holding Company (featuring Janis Joplin), appearing at with the Flamin' Groovies and Lavender Hill Mob at the Merced (CA) County Fairgrounds on 12/20/1967.
 
 Art by Jim Parber*, thin flat index stock poster is in very good (B/B+) condition; there are slight tape shadows in the upper left/right corners, along with a couple of VERY soft horizontal/diagonal bends going through "Holding Co.", a few light stress creases, pin-prick age spots and handling dings and a quartet of tape marks/shadows on the reverse, otherwise fine. 
 
 ULTRA-uncommon late-'67 Big Brother concert artifact from a somewhat out-of-the-way show. Check out a fascinating story about the artist with a very unusual Grateful Dead connection HERE:
