Here's a great looking POSTCARD from the Terrace Ballroom we are offering for the first time in our auction. It was produced to advertise Love Alice Cooper and Fever Tree at the Salt Lake City venue on July 18th 1970. Alice Cooper was later replaced by Blue Cheer .The front image art of this postcard shows Alice Cooper but the Tape Head Company notes on the reverse exhibit Blue Cheer in the lineup suggesting that Alice Cooper cancelled.

 

Artist Rob Brown designed this beautiful image for this Salt Lake show. Brown did illustration work in YELLOW DOG COMICS #15 underground comix strip and his work appeared in  the first four (of five) issues of PROMETHEAN ENTERPRISES (Published in the SF Bay Area between 1969 and 1974) an early underground comic fanzine that featured the work of R. Crumb Rick Griffin Victor Moscoso Robert Williams Spain Rodriguez Rick Shubb Bob Zoell and others). In addition he created multiple front covers and strips for the Berkeley Barb (an infamous & notorious S.F. Bay Area underground newspaper) in the late 60's. He is also noted for authoring & illustrating the incredible "Dragon World" full color hardbound children's book in 2005 featuring 68 paintings of unique Dragons of all sorts.

 

You can "look inside" the DRAGON WORLD book to see all of Rob Brown's whimsical Dragon paintings here.

 

The company that promoted this Terrace concert was later told by Disney Productions to "cease & desist" from using the unmistakable likeness of Mickey Mouse on their posters & promotions such as this one.
