Original 1st printing 14&1/8 x 20" concert poster for Quicksilver Messenger Service appearing along with the Sons of Champlin and Blackburn & Snow at the Avalon Ballroom in San Francisco, CA from 10/28-29/1966.

 

 Art by Victor Moscoso, image ("Chicken on a Unicycle") is # 32 in the Family Dog/Avalon series.

 

 Medium-thick flat vellum stock poster is in SPARKLING mint/near mint to near mint (A/A- to A-) condition; aside from a tiny edge ding or two scattered around the outer margin area, this example is just as clean as they come- strong inking, sharp corners, bright white border- it looks like it just rolled off the press. 

 

 An absolutely KILLER example of this early 1st printing Family Dog poster!

 

 This poster (and several others we are featuring in this sale) comes from the collection of underground comix artist (and personal friend of Rick Griffin and Rick Shubb) George Metzger. Read more about George HERE:
