If you're new to collecting this lot is for you. Great band Museum quality amazing art and super affordable price point. There is a copy of Moscoso's popular FD-64 DOORS poster in the Museum of Modern Art's Architecture and Design department archives visible online here

 

Advertising a series of concerts featuring THE DOORS this was the last of the four DOORS Family Dog posters which featured high voltage fully electrified psychedelic imagery by the wizard of your retinas Victor Moscoso - Often referred to as "The Pink Panther" poster since the central imagery features the eyes and nose of a cat with two human profiles superimposed so that each is facing outward and downward one under each eye of the cat in vibrant & vivid almost neon blue and pink / magenta colors.  Close inspection of the lettering and imagery reveals slight overlap of color which Moscoso created for a 3-D like effect more subtle than his FD-53 poster.

Features a great band amazing art and an affordable reprint price!  A similar but slightly higher 9.8 CGC example of this printing sold for 322.00 in our September 2017 auction. This link features an INCREDIBLY interesting & INTENSE short video clip of Moscoso hisself expressing his soul without reservation.
