This rare Rick Griffin issue announced Jefferson Airplane at The Matrix in San Francisco for three nights in April 1967. Jefferson Airplane's own Marty Balin got a group of investors together to open the Matrix so San Francisco bands playing psychedelic music would have a dedicated performance space to call their own. Balin gave the investors a 75% interest in the club while keeping a 25% interest for himself in return for managing the club. The Matrix was a tiny San Francisco club that held 150. How many copies of this foil poster could have been created to promote this small show? Not to mention the late great RICK GRIFFIN worked on the design of this issue! Posters like this are why collectors are so excited - incredible rarity, beauty, history, and coolness at a super affordable price level!
