The Zebra Man! Here is a fabulous example of a classic Family Dog Poster hunted by collectors. Designed by Stanley Mouse and the late Alton Kelley this poster creates a stunning visual impact to the viewer. This image is so powerful that it was used by Gary Grimshaw for his Zebra Man Grande Ballroom poster just weeks later.
News spread quickly a few months ago about the sad passing of Roky Erickson at age 71 which has already spurred a massive interest in concert material for collectors and fans alike. Texas native Roger Kynard "Roky" Erickson was a founding member of The 13th Floor Elevators and a pioneer of the psychedelic rock genre. The group was a major innovator of '60s Rock & the "San Francisco Sound". They made several stops to the Fillmore and Avalon early on.
This hard to find Original Avalon poster is one of the most beloved in the entire numbered series and we don't see it surface nearly as much as we'd like to! A great opportunity to get your hands on one!
