This lot will be accompanied by a Letter of Provenance attesting to the fact that it resided in the historic Early '66 Time Capsule Collection one of the most  exciting and important concert poster discoveries of the past 20 years.

The FIRST CGC graded example to EVER appear at public auction!

This is the most well known of many images used to promote this anti-war event-concert --an irreverent eclectic design. Jefferson Airplane playing an anti-war benefit in March 1966 in Berkeley no less the hotbed of political activism. TRULY CLASSIC!

 

Very evocative as a moment when hedonistic hippies and soon to be heard-boiled antiwar activists could work together. This event foreshadowed psychedelic rock’s involvement in countless benefits for all the new social causes and their organizations. Incredible condition!
