Here’s a fabulous ultra clean and undamaged example of a very popular early Family Dog poster. Artist Don Van Vliet AKA Captain Beefheart brought his avant garde brand of rock music to the Avalon just a few months after the Avalon Ballroom opened in 1966. This poster for that event utilizes an illustration from late 19th century German cartoonist Heinrich Kley and is truly striking. Knowledgeable collectors know that early Family Dog material is many times rarer than the Fillmore series. As such itemssuch as this in museum quality condition are highly sought after whenever offered at public sale! Created by the two of the most famous poster artists of the era Stanley Mouse and Alton Kelley!
Signed in marker by Mouse!
