Product description
A 1969 concert poster, known as “Aoxomoxoa”, with Grateful Dead on the bill at the Avalon Ballroom.
About The Grateful Dead
Grateful Dead fans, known as Deadheads, followed the band from city to city for decades. The Grateful Dead formed in the San Francisco Bay Area in 1965 and became famous for long, improvised live shows. Concert posters were made to promote a single show, which is why so few originals survive. It was designed to promote a 1969 concert at the Avalon Ballroom. The Avalon Ballroom in San Francisco, home of the Family Dog dances, rivalled the Fillmore in the 1960s. Some 1960s concert posters were designed so the lettering was deliberately hard to read, inviting a second look.
