Original 1st printing 14 x 22" cardboard concert poster for Jefferson Airplane appearing with Quicksilver Messenger Service at California Hall in San Francisco on 4/8/1966. Designer unknown/not credited, the image is featured in the Art of Rock book on page 175 (plate 2.144). Thick cardboard stock poster is in good/decent (B to B/B-) condition; a semi-pronounced horizontal center crease, a bit of light toning/discoloration and light to moderate creasing in all four corners (with a couple of cracks in the board) and a pair of 1/2-3/4" pulls in the top/bottom right corner tips, a few light surface stains and stray pin-prick age spots and a series of easily-erasable pencil scratches on the reverse, otherwise fine. VERY EARLY and hard-to-find Jefferson Airplane/Quicksilver poster from the dawn of the psychedelic scene in San Francisco. I used to get asked for this one ALL THE TIME, this is the first time I've actually had one to offer up. Read more about the Airplane's activities during this period HERE:
