This fabulous handbill is in super clean condition with no nicks cuts tears or pinholes!
A couple months before Bill Graham & Chet Helms really got the Fillmore rolling .. two other Family Dog affiliates took over concert producing. Danny Rifkin & Rock Scully. The pair used California Hall as their independent base-venue. They only produced 2 concerts before exploring a different side of San Francisco’s fledgling music industry vis a vis band management most notably with the Grateful Dead.
This flyer was designed by George Hunter of the Charlatans in that same RE-CONTEXTUALIZED old-timey vernacular that was pioneered on the Seed poster. It is also noted as a Family Dog production before the Wes Wilson - Chet Helms FD logo became well recognized.
