This poster is signed in pencil by the artist Alton Kelley!
Here is one of the popular designs from the Avalon series. The poster was designed by poster legends Alton Kelley and Stanley Mouse. This poster features the famous Frankenstein image and “Grateful Dead” has been erroneously misspelled as well!
Now we have a unique opportunity to acquire a famous design of a concert by a famous band signed by a legendary poster artist for a bargain price since this is a reprint that was produced in the 1960's but shortly after the concert.
This poster is designated as RP- 3 by Eric King's classification: It is the third printing because the first two OP-1 OP-2 are original pre concert prints. The RP-3 is the first and only official post-concert print.
In July 2017 a same graded 9.4 signed example reached $385 in our auction! Read our blog dated 1/20/18 where we discuss the skyrocketing demand for signed material such as this lot!
