Jerry Garcia and Merl Saunders, the New Riders, Mike Bloomfield, Jorma, and Jack are featured on this lineup at Winterland Arena. This small 10" x 14" original poster exhibits the event billed as a legal aid benefit, but it was really the Hells Angels party for 1973. Allegedly at the time, Sonny Barger & The Hells Angels were "in trouble", so it was decided by Bill Graham and the Hells Angels that changing the bill was for the best. A popular issue designed by artist Randy Tuten.
