This is only the second CGC graded example of this poster to appear in our auction! This scarce image for the December 1966 “Grope for Peace” was designed by the legendary Stanley Mouse. The show was held at The Ark in Sausalito and featured The Charlatans and Big Brother & The Holding Company.


The original first printing posters of this issue can be very difficult to find IN ANY CONDITION. In June 2017 a lower 5.0 graded example reached $328 in our auction. In any other collectibles market this poster would be worth many multiples of the previously sold example. It will be interesting to see what premium the market attaches to this superior example now!
