Rare 1997 Frank Kozik "The Dwarves" Concert Poster – Original Screen Print
Own a pristine piece of San Francisco punk rock and pop-art history. This massive, authentic 1997 screen-printed gig poster was designed by the legendary, late counter-culture artist Frank Kozik to advertise an iconic hometown show.
Frank Kozik (1962–2023) Bands: The Dwarves with opening acts Fang and The Loadies
Event Date: Tuesday, May 27, 1997
Venue: Trocadero Transfer, San Francisco, CA
Medium: Original, large-scale screen print / serigraph
Dimensions: 22.5" W x 35" H
Provenance & Rarity: This is a true piece of local music history. Unlike warehouse overstocks, this exact poster was hung in the window of SF’s historic Cafe International on Haight Street to advertise the concert ahead of the event. It is a genuine artifact from the peak of the 1990s Bay Area punk scene, printed right around the release of The Dwarves' seminal album, The Dwarves Are Young and Good Looking.
Condition: Very nice vintage condition.Details: Bold, bright, and vibrant graphics with no major fading. It has been incredibly well-preserved for a poster meant to handle street promotion.
Completely flat and ready for framing. (Please see high-resolution photos for minor corner/edge wear consistent with age and street placement).
Frank Kozik is widely celebrated as one of America's greatest and most recognizable late-20th-century rock art poster artists. Following his passing, his original 1990s screen prints have become increasingly sought after by high-end art collectors and punk rock historians alike. The combination of Kozik's vibrant pop-art aesthetics, the legendary notoriety of The Dwarves, and the local history of the Trocadero Transfer makes this particular print a standout investment piece
