Cow Palace 9/22/67

By 1967, Donovan was at the peak of his popularity and Bill Graham scheduled this concert for the larger venue known as the Cow Palace. Bonnie MacLean created a gorgeous poster for this one-night show in September 1967.

Original posters were printed on white stock and come in two versions which measure approximately 14″ x 21⅛″:

The Type One original has two print flaws; one is a yellow dot between the upper part of the “E’ in “ONE” and the other is a small yellow area along the top edge of the bottom curve of the “S” in “SEPT”. This is known as BG-86-OP-1-A in Eric King’s guide.

The Type Two original has had the print flaws corrected; the one in the “E’ has been fixed with small brown dots which bend in with the background. This is known as BG-86-OP-1-C in Eric King’s guide.

The second print poster was printed on white index stock and measures approximately 14″ x 21⅛″. These have had the print flaw in the “S” corrected, but the yellow area in the “E” still appears. This is known as BG-86-RP-1.5 in Eric King’s guide.

The third print poster was printed on glossy stock and measures approximately 14″ x 21⅜″.

The postcard has a “place stamp here” reverse and measures approximately 4½″ x 7″.
