Here we have one of the most popular pieces of artwork promoting one of history's most beloved bands. This original handbill created by Victor Moscoso is commonly referred to as the Hippie Santa Claus. The striking Green and Red design announced a pair of late December shows at The Avalon featuring the Grateful Dead, Steve Miller, and Moby Grape. Original handbills from the early days of the Avalon are increasingly harder to uncover!
