Rick Griffin's Hawaiian Aoxomoxoa is one of most coveted and desirable concert posters in the world. This handbill has it all– incredible color design and one of the best examples of the artist's signature lettering style. It was created for a concert by one of the greatest bands in the history of Rock 'n Roll and it's incredibly scarce.

The Hawaii Aoxomoxoa was inspired by the artwork for the third Grateful Dead album. This illustration was created for a run of cancelled 1969 Dead shows in Honolulu Hawaii. As the legend goes the printer did not get paid by the promoter and destroyed all but a handful of copies.
