Country Joe and The Fish were a ubiquitous Bay Area band in the 1960’s. The band played frequently in Berkeley in 1966 and artist Tom Weller created a series of posters uniquely important to the their growth. The designs were favored so much by the group that they often used some of Weller's designs for marketing their record releases. This poster produced in Berkeley promotes the third pressing of the 33 1/3RPM Rag Baby EP in June of 1966.

 

This is the FIRST CGC graded example of this rare poster to appear in our auction! Many collectors believe that posters graded 8.5 by CGC represent the best value in the marketplace today. See our blog dated 1/31/18 to learn why demand is currently skyrocketing.
