Original Concert Postcard: Quicksilver Messenger Service, Don Ellis Orchestra, Rockwell (June 18-21, 1974)

San Francisco, CA: Bill Graham, 1970. First Edition, First Printing. Single Sheet. This postcard designed by David Singer (b. 1941) promotes a concert series which took place on June 18-21, 1974 featuring Quicksilver Messenger Service, Don Ellis & His Orchestra, Rockwell, and the Brotherhood of Light and was produced by the legendary impresario Bill Graham (1931-1991). David Singer is a pioneering rock poster artist who designed over 75 posters for Graham, blending surreal imagery with meticulous hand-lettering, creating visual representations of the psychedelic music scene. Per Eric King's Collector's Guide: “This poster is silver, shades between silver and black and black. The central image is a collage made up of three elements. At the bottom is a cavalry seen crossing a desert area. Above that is a pair of woman's legs wearing fishnet stockings. At the top between her feet is the reverse of an old buffalo nickel. The verso features a calendar of other Bill Graham events taking place in June & July of 1970 featuring Sha-Na-Na, Pacific Gas & Electric, Dan Hicks and His Hot Licks, and other Blues-&-Beyond luminaries. A quintessential relic of time & place. Single sheet: First Edition, first printing with all points in King's Collector's Guide (BG-239-OPC-A, pg. 573). In relatively very fine condition with mild age-toning; very mild bumping to the fine edges and corners; cut slightly off-center; otherwise, clean. Very Fine. [Item #9195]
