The concert posters from the Santa Venetia Armory hold a special place in the hearts of knowledgeable collectors. This venue in Marin County advertised psychedelic  era concerts by issuing old school boxing style cardboard posters. Only a handful of these posters exist today in any condition. This poster for a 1967 Big Brother show is one of the hardest to claim from the series.
