The central image depicts a grizzled prospector at the intersection of Van Ness Avenue and Sutter Street, a brilliant visual pun connecting the Avalon Ballroom's location to the discovery of gold at Sutter's Mill that sparked the 1849 Gold Rush.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eGriffin's masterful crosshatching technique renders the prospector with an almost Victorian engraving quality, while the surrounding psychedelic typography pulses with countercultural energy. The poster announces performances by Quicksilver Messenger Service and Country Joe and the Fish, two pillars of the San Francisco Sound, with light shows by the North American Ibis Alchemical Company.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA defining artifact of the Summer of Love era, this poster represents the Family Dog aesthetic at its most inventive. Griffin would go on to legendary status as one of the Big Five San Francisco poster artists, and this piece demonstrates why his work remains the gold standard for collectors of psychedelic art.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSize:\u003c\/strong\u003e 14.0\" x 20.0\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eArtist:\u003c\/strong\u003e Rick Griffin\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCondition:\u003c\/strong\u003e Very Good, Age-appropriate wear, fading and toning.
