Original 1st printing 13&1/2" diameter concert poster for Sopwith Camel* (canceled/replaced by the Grateful Dead) appearing with Baltimore Steam Packet and Blue House Basement at The Santa Venetia Armory in San Rafael, CA on 2/10/1967. Art by Now Studios, medium flat vellum stock poster is in used (C) condition; the central image of the poster has been hand-trimmed (perhaps at the time of the event, it's unclear) from a larger approximately 14 x 21" sheet, so there are uneven edges, plus a number of tiny pin-prick age spots, a small tape pull on the reverse and a few stray thin stress bends. It may have been issued this way, as there are other SVA posters (Morning Glory/the Styx) that were also circular, but the edges are pretty obviously cut with a scissor. Still, this is an ORIGINAL early-'67 confirmed Grateful Dead concert poster, there can't be a whole lot of them out there... and it's priced to move!
