1967réf. 000012029San Francisco: Family Dog Productions 1967 1967. First edition. Poster. Very near Fine. 50.5 cm x 36 cm. Poster printed in white black pink and orange.

Places to purchase tickets are advertised at the bottom of the poster and include several bookstores on Colfax Avenue in Denver. Grushkin FD-D6. King FD-D6. The central photograph is taken from an 1898 image of Chief Josh a San Carlos Apache.

Difficult to find in commerce this is an exceptional example. Family Dog Productions [1967] unknown

1971réf. 43806Hull: Hull University 1971. First Edition. Very good. Original poster for an Afro Rock event at Hull University featuring one of the most important bands of the movement Assagai. Afro Rock which had its strongest incarnation in the UK in the late sixties and early seventies combined Western rock instrumentation with African and Afro-Cuban rhythms and percussion. Assagai featured emegrees from both South Africa and Nigeria as well a Ghana; the lineup included drummer Louis Moholo trumpeter/flautist Mongezi Feza alto saxophonist Dudu Pukwana tenor saxophonist Bizo Mngqikana guitarist/bassist Fred Coker their chief songwriter and Terri Quaye - the first professional female congaist in the UK. Assagai issued just two highly-reguarded albums both in 1971 on Vertigo Records one of the few if not the only all-black band signed to that legendary rock label and this poster dates from that peak. While they broke up shortly after this gig the members went on to long careers in various other jazz and prog groups. A striking poster from this significant but poorly documented group. Poster silk-screened in blue gold and red. Mild wear creasing. Some rubbing. Else bright and sound. Very good. Hull University unknown
