Dennis, no I am not selling them
Just stumbled across Ron's website and found these wonderful old posters and thought that they should be shared.
Hope you will all enjoy them

And after reading about Caboron's musical past, Don and I had to dance a few on the old cutting board.

I like this one the best:
It took me a while to realize that it is CaboRon not Cabron. You know? This site needs an accent and tilde generator.

Pack,
Don found it in a magazine ad in the early 80's. He thinks it was Rolling Stone. When they tore down the Carousel Ballroom, which had become the
Fillmore West, the maple floor was saved and turned into cutting boards, with profits going to save the whales.
Where to find one now? Maybe that flea market at an old drive-in movie that everyone always went to in San Francisco? Or e-bay?
Let us know if you find one!

FAR OUT
It's one of the best investments we've ever made! And to think we've used it all these years as a cutting board. Does being slightly warped increase
or decrease the value?

Hey caboron; did you ever make it to one of those big concerts Howard Fisher used to throw east of Del Mar on Black Mountain Road in the early 70s?
Across from where Torrey Pines High is now.
I remember QMS playing one...Jesse Colin Young...Deep Purple... |
No I didnīt.... I was living in Mill Valley at the time and in the early seventies I was Road Managing (at different times) Dan Hicks and the Hot
Licks, Dave Mason and Van Morrison.
Those were good years, just wish I could remember more of them.

CaboRon,
those posters are great, I hope you don't mind, I hijacked some for picture art in our new home we are building ourselves that is almost complete,
they will add nice to color to our home.
Haven't had a bad trip yet....

Well Paula,
According to Barb, I got slightly warped over the years, but it didn't increase my value any.

I donīt mind at all... enjoy.
In fact I got them off of an historical site, and I wish I could remember the name so that I could give credit where credit is due.
