Original 1st printing 7 x 10&3/4" concert flyer for the Grateful Dead appearing with Country Joe & the Fish at the Selland Arena in Fresno, CA on 2/17/1968. Art by Cheryl Rankin, image is featured in the Art of Rock book on page 263 (plate 3.27). Medium thin flat stock flyer is in good/decent (B/B- to B-) condition; pin holes/wear (all four corners), a few scattered dings and bits of surface splatter/"bug sh*t", light toning, a couple of pieces of brown masking tape residue on the reverse (some slight glue residue beginning to creep through the corners), a bit of handling, otherwise fine. A charming-looking regional Dead/CJF flyer from '68 featuring great photos of both bands and sharp Wes Wilson-esque lettering. This one also mentions an upcoming Cream show (3/13/1968) at Selland in the bottom left corner... VERY cool!
