As things were winding down for the Family Dogs stint at the Avalon the budget for promotion was reduced  and the promoter began using black and white images for the posters. The last dozen or so posters from the FD Avalon series relied mostly on photographic imagery. But still. This is a 50 year old poster with a classic band and famous venue for far less than the mass produced trash you see at your local art gallery!

And importantly this is the finest quality example we have EVER auctioned!
