We are pleased to offer this Greg Irons original poster for the FIRST time since 2018, just the third example EVER! This was produced as the first venue poster for San Francisco’s Western Front. Iron’s was hired to begin designing posters for the famed venue by his friend Milan Melvin who was involved with the club in its infancy. 

 

The graphic exhibited a false wooden storefront with a teepee behind it and striking color relationships. Irons went on to continue producing material for the venue most notably the following “grand opening” 6/28-7/2/1967 week issue featuring Big Brother and the Holding Company. 

 

Condition Details: Paper loss bottom edge and corners, toning, tape, tape pulls and residue, pinholes top corners, foxing, bend and small tear middle left edge.
