Janis Joplin First Printing Concert Poster — For Show on 25 October 1969 in Oklahoma City
Rare first printing concert poster for Janis Joplin for a show on 25 October 1969 at the Fairgrounds Arena in Oklahoma City. Johnny Dark Productions concert had the James Cotton Blues Band opening for Joplin and her band (the Kozmik Blues), promoted here in the poster designed by R. McIntosh and B.G. Vesper.

Sold for $4,400.
One of the Rarest of 1960s Rock Posters — Janis Joplin & Big Brother and the Holding Company Poster From April 1968 — Featured in “Art of Rock”
Extremely rare poster for a 19 April 1968 Fresno concert by Janis Joplin, and Big Brother and the Holding Company, with The Mint Tattoo opening. In this psychedelic explosion of colors, font and visuals, designer Dale Oftedal uses a rainbow of colors to convey his aesthetic, including the depiction of Janis Joplin as a free spirited bird perched upon a branch. This poster was printed in a very limited run, and thus scarce, especially in the condition found here. It was chosen for its uniqueness and scarcity by Paul Grushkin for his reference book, “The Art of Rock from Presley to Punk”, found on plate 3.30 and thus identified as AOR-3.30. Measures 17″ x 24.25″. A well preserved poster with light creasing and edge wear, and a few small scuffs. Overall in very good plus condition. Sold for $4,000.

The following are some additional concert posters we sold:
Very Rare Doors Poster From a 1967 Performance at the Kaleidoscope Club in Hollywood
Original circular hand-pulled silkscreen poster, promoting a three day performance by the up-and-coming band The Doors, at the Kaleidoscope Club in Hollywood on 21-23 April 1967. A series of 20 posters were issued by Kaleidoscope in 1967, one for each concert that year. This dayglo fluorescent poster is considered to be the most rare in the Kaleidoscope series because of the type of ink used by artist John Douglas Kline in production. Posters in this series are almost non-existent because they were issued for promotion only, and the silkscreens used to produce the posters were burned in a fire. The Kaleidoscope was a psychedelic rock venue run by the management of the band Canned Heat. It was only open for roughly six months in 1967, with many memorable bands performing in that brief time. The venue was housed at the Earl Carroll Theater, which was then located at 6230 Sunset Boulevard in Hollywood, and featured two concentrically rotating stages at the center of the venue. For The Doors performance, the show was moved to a club called Ciros, at 8433 W. Sunset Boulevard in West Hollywood, (which is now the Comedy Store) since the original location of the club at the Earl Carroll Theatre had yet to be finalized. Circular poster depicts a silhouette of the faces of The Doors, with the band names in psychedelic 60’s font, and is printed in bright shades in a color combination meant to play tricks on the eye, as if looking through a psychedelic kaleidoscope. Previously owned by Alan Brackett, the original bass player in the Peanut Butter Conspiracy, who played with The Doors at this venue, along with The UFO. Poster measures 18.75″ in diameter, with some pinholes around the edge and very minor creasing. Near fine condition. Sold for $3,936.

Watkins Glen “Summer Jam” Concert Poster — Allman Brothers Band, Grateful Dead & The Band — First Printing
Original and scarce first printing of the “Summer Jam” Concert poster, which took place 28 July 1973 at the Watkins Glen Grand Prix Raceway in New York.

Saturday, July 28 from 12 noon on / Tickets: $10 includes parking & camping…” With “Scoop Printing Co.” printed at lower right, indicating it as a first printing. Near fine. Sold for $1,903.
