Auction - AOR 2.215 - Human Be-In - Rick Griffin SIGNED - 1967 Concert Poster - Near Mint Minus

Here is what many collectors feel was the seminal event of the 60's... 'A Gathering of the Tribes for a Human Be-In' at Golden Gate Park. This event, held in January 1967, is largely credited with starting the Summer of Love. Designed by legendary poster artist, Rick Griffin, this event featured, bands, poets, writers, activists, etc. Notably on hand were Allen Ginsburg & Timothy Leary. Basically, all the local San Francisco bands attended this event, including the Grateful Dead. This lovely black & white or pen & ink drawing by Rick is extremely popular. The poster measures about 22 1/4" x 14 1/4". Rick Griffin signed the poster in black sharpie. A great example of his signature! The condition is near mint minus with just a minor push to the corners and a tiny stain in the bottom border. Probably the finest copy we’ve had in years! This is a great investment piece!
