Original 1st printing 7&1/8 x 22&3/8" concert poster for the October 1968 schedule of shows held at the Matrix in San Francisco, CA. Shows listed include: Elvin Bishop from 10/8-12, Jerry Garcia (GARRCEEAH) and Friends (A/K/A "Mickey & the Hartbeats") from 10/8-10, Marvel Farm from 10/11-12, Harvey Mandel and Mad River from 10/15-17, Allmen Joy from 10/18-19, Mint Tattoo from 10/22-24, Steve Miller from 10/22-16 and Linn County from 10/25-27. Art by George Chacona and Marty Rice, image is featured in the Art of Rock on page 166 (plate 2.118). Medium flat vellum stock poster is in excellent (B+) condition; just a few light handling dings here and there, a light amount of toning/very subtle discoloration along the top margin, a couple of tiny surface scuffs and scratches hiding within the image area and a tiny edge crease or two, otherwise it is a VERY clean/crisp example of this heavily Rick Griffin-influenced concert poster from the Matrix.
