Description

Big Brother and the Holding Company "Denver Opening" Concert Double-Size Poster FD-D1 (Family Dog, 1967). "Behold, the Burning Bush!" So says the Zig Zag Man, one of many odd characters that appear in this classic Rick Griffin design (others include the Lipton Tea Man, Mr. Peanut, the Players "Salty Dog" Sailor, Elsie the Cow, and many more). This poster, made to advertise the first in a series of Denver shows from the Family Dog collective, is the extra large version. Blue Cheer were the openers for this show, which starred Janis Joplin and the Big Brother boys. The poster measures approximately 27.75" x 19.75", and is in Very Good+ condition. And remember, "Everybody is Good at Heart"!
