Electric Dreams: Rare Rock Posters

Electric Dreams: Rare Rock Posters from a Private Collection on December 17th presents a curated survey of the psychedelic era, tracing the explosion of rock culture from San Francisco to Texas between 1966 and 1967. Centered on the iconic Bill Graham and Family Dog series, the auction features CGC-certified examples by the movement's defining artists, including Wes Wilson, Stanley Mouse & Alton Kelley, Victor Moscoso, Rick Griffin, and their collaborators. Highlights span watershed concerts at the Fillmore Auditorium, Avalon Ballroom, Winterland, The Matrix, and California Hall, with historic appearances by the Grateful Dead, Jefferson Airplane, The Velvet Underground & Nico, Otis Redding, Muddy Waters, 13th Floor Elevators, Big Brother & the Holding Company, Joan Baez, and many more. Landmark designs such as the Frankenstein and "Skeleton & Roses" posters, early Neon Rose works, the Human Be-In, and rare Texas psych pieces stand alongside politically charged and cross-disciplinary material, from anti-war satire to avant-garde film. Together, these posters document not only the birth of psychedelic graphic design but also the sound, politics, and cultural imagination of the Summer of Love - offering collectors a museum-worthy snapshot of rock history on paper.
