Description
This Joint Show 1967 Moore Galleries Exhibition Poster — Alton Kelley is an original, rare printer’s proof (large size) from the 1967 Moore Galleries art show featuring major artists including Rick Griffin, Victor Moscoso, Stanley Mouse, and Wes Wilson. Presented as a first printing on gloss stock, this example is untrimmed and includes the registration marks, printed on fine quality proof stock—exactly the kind of production-focused detail collectors look for when seeking museum-quality show ephemera. A 1/8″ silver outside border around the entire image.
The poster features a bold, psychedelic graphic with a central figure wearing a hat, firmly placing the artwork within the vibrant underground poster culture of the late 1960s. The central person is Ron “Pig Pen” McKernan, whose contributions to the Grateful Dead included vocals, keyboards, harmonica, percussion, and guitar. The composition and period visual language make this piece a striking conversation starter, while its proof characteristics and Moore Galleries provenance make it especially desirable for serious vintage print collectors.
Moore Galleries also identifies this joint show as including Kelley, Stanley Mouse, Vic Moscoso, Wes Wilson, and Rick Griffin, with the listing details for 535 Sutter Street, San Francisco, on Jul 17, 1967. This original offset-lithograph is in great shape and has not been mounted on linen, preserving the poster’s original condition and display integrity.
