This First Printing Family Dog poster for a two day bill at the Avalon features an all time classic Mouse/Kelley design. The duo very cleverly used popular culture images as design themes for many of their early works.

 

The original poster of this issue is one of the true “sleepers” in the series as it is deceptively difficult to locate in clean condition. Heavily damaged copies can be found with just moderate effort but many pieces out there have been restored. Earlier this year we sold a CGC 9.4 graded example for $4800. This relatively clean Original First Printing here is 100% Original with no restoration!
