This second printing poster offers the same popular and iconic art for far less than a First Print currently commands! Original First Printings of this issue can easily command over $40 000 in this state of preservation. This beautiful reprint offered weeks after the show but still 50+ years ago should be available for FAR less!

 

The World Famous King Kong Memorial Dance. It is universally recognized that this historic image is without a doubt the rarest issue in The Family Dog series. The iconic and very popular Family Dog logo designed by the late great Wes Wilson appears on a concert poster for the very first time. The rest of the poster was designed by The Family Dog's Chet Helms.
