Original 1st printing 14&1/4 x 17&3/4" concert/event poster for a "Psychedelic Fashion Show", sponsored by Mill Valley mod boutique The Mod Hatter, featuring performances by Jefferson Airplane, Quicksilver Messenger Service, the Only Alternative and His Other Possibilities and Mimi Farina and held at the Fillmore Auditorium in San Francisco, CA on 8/17/1966.

 

 Artist unknown, image is not a numbered Bill Graham/Fillmore image (this show falls between the BG #23 and BG #24 shows), but it is featured in the Art of Rock on page 155 (plate 2.84) and likely had some BGP involvement.

 

 Thick flat vellum "construction paper" stock poster is in very good (B/B+) condition; staple holes in all four corners, bottom center and lower right margins, a few tiny creases/bends in each corner, light creasing along the upper left margin, a thin 1&1/2" diagonal indentation/scratch above "Fashion" and a few tiny surface dings and scuffs scattered around the image area, otherwise fine.

 

 VERY, VERY uncommon/hard-to-find early non-numbered Fillmore poster with a REALLY interesting back story involving Owsley Stanley, the Grateful Dead and a new P.A. system for the Fillmore- read about it HERE:
