Presenting an Original First Printing of the classic Family Dog Zebra Man Poster hunted by collectors - and best of all in HIGH quality condition! 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 last year 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. Clearly the lucky new owner of this poster will take immense joy in owning this museum piece!
