This second-printing poster offers the same popular and iconic art for far less than a First Print currently commands! The most noticeable difference between the first printing edition and this second printing is the black triangle in the upper left corner. The Doors FD-D18 poster is the only one done for the band by this highly collected artist. The lettering is also one of the more difficult to decipher in any of Rick's work. It was produced during the peak of Rick Griffin's quintessential psychedelic poster artwork period, produced just about a month before his epic Jimi Hendrix / Flying Eyeball Fillmore concert poster, and has already carved out its place as one of the most intense Doors concert posters ever produced. Just a few months before these late December 67 New Years concert dates at the Denver Dog, the Doors 2nd hit LP, STRANGE DAYS, was released. Great artwork, great artist, great band!\
