Extremely rare poster for a 19 April 1968 Fresno concert by Janis Joplin, and Big Brother and the Holding Company, with The Mint Tattoo opening. In this psychedelic explosion of colors, font and visuals, designer Dale Oftedal uses a rainbow of colors to convey his aesthetic, including the depiction of Janis Joplin as a free spirited bird perched upon a branch. This poster was printed in a very limited run, and thus scarce, especially in the condition found here. It was chosen for its uniqueness and scarcity by Paul Grushkin for his reference book, ''The Art of Rock from Presley to Punk'', found on plate 3.30 and thus identified as AOR-3.30. Measures 17'' x 24.25''. A well preserved poster with light creasing and edge wear, and a few small scuffs. Overall in very good plus condition.
