We don't see this Pre-Concert First Printing poster come around that often and rarely in this good condition. This example is CGC Authenticated 100% Original with no restoration whatsoever. Could you imagine seeing The Dead and The Doors in the same lineup? Talk about an AWESOME show! This was The Doors first of three 1967 performances at the Earl Warren.

The show was promoted by the late great Jim Salzer. Last year Jim Salzer passed away at age 78 suddenly and unexpectedly from complications involving a previous neck injury. His lasting legacy is well known in the industry. First as a guitarist and singer then as a rock show promoter who booked big names like the Rolling Stones Jimi Hendrix and Led Zeppelin. He briefly managed the Doors during the early years and he frequently brought in major bands of the era to Ventura and Santa Barbara. Salzer's owned & operated record shop has been a legendary fixture for decades - and still stands today.
