Here we have a poster for a very early Grateful Dead poster created for the Zen Mountain Center Benefit held at the Avalon in late 1966. A very young Grateful Dead performed along with Quicksilver Messenger Service and Big Brother as the opening bands, however there are no audio recordings or known set lists archived of the concert. The event was called "A Zenefit".
