Thank you to all the fine folks who joined us for Festival of Rock Posters at Hall of Flowers (San Francisco County Fair Building) this past Saturday, October 22, 2016 in Golden Gate Park. It was a grand time celebrating the 50th Anniversary of the psychedelic rock poster, and experiencing how this art form has remained relevant, especially in the digital age.
This year we saw record attendance, with our Artist Relief Trust posters by the legendary Stanley Mouse selling out within an hour of opening. This silkscreen poster is extra special because all proceeds from the sale go directly to benefit an artist in need. Thank you for your support. We look forward to seeing pictures of your copy, signed by Mouse on social media.
We are already at work preparing for next year, hopefully with a confirmed date soon. Until then, please enjoy these pictures. (click to enlarge)

Held on January 21-23, 1966 at Longshoremen’s Hall in San Francisco, the Trips Festival featured the Grateful Dead, Big Brother and the Holding Company, Loading Zone, and more. The event handbill was designed by, who many consider the father of the ’60s rock concert poster, the legendary Wes Wilson. You can get an idea of it’s current value now at ExpressoBeans.com.
We highly recommend purchasing The Trips Festival movie by Eric Christensen, available now on DVD. www.thetripsfestival.com
