(Sparta Graphics, 1967) A fantastic concert poster for Jefferson Airplane by artist Jim Michaelson. From 1966-1968, Michaelson and Dave Schiller made a name for themselves through their company Sparta Graphics, which produced a number of popular psychedelic posters. Michaelson painted the original image for this poster on wood, and the lithograph poster was sold in one- or two-sided formats on sturdy cardstock. This is the rarer "deluxe" one-sided version, which has been recorded in the book "The U.S. Posters from the American 19th to 20th Century Image" by Mark Resnick. It measures 39"x30". The poster is in very good condition with expected edge and surface-wear from age and use, including light bending, particularly at the corners. As this poster comes from Michaelson's collection, it is difficult to tell whether the reds and yellows have faded slightly from age, or whether this is a printer's proof.
