Here's a great looking poster from the Terrace Ballroom which offers tremendous value for such a rarity. 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 60s. 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.

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. There were only 1,000 copies of this original poster printed in the one & only print run prior to the July 18th concert date in 1970 which makes them extremely hard to find these days in ANY condition.
