PAE is pleased to present the very FIRST CGC graded specimen of this poster to EVER appear at public auction!
Berkeley’s Jabberwock was the home for many early Country Joe and the Fish shows. Many of the bands early performances were at this small club on Telegraph Avenue. This poster by artist Tom Weller promotes the Halloween run at the venue in 1966.
The Jabberwok started as a successful jazz club in the early sixties until it was purchased by Bill "Jolly Blue" Ehlert in 1965. Ehlert converted much of the venue’s performances to a more psychedelic sound. In 1966 Ehlert hired Jesse Cahn who had been a guest drummer for the Chambers Brothers to co-manage the Jabberwock while he ran the Matrix in San Francisco.
