Item Details
Description
VERY VERY VERY RARE - FIRESIGN THEATER - RARE "MOVIE" POSTER. How can you be in two places at once, when you're not anywhere at all. A poster to promote the 2nd album from 1969. The Firesign Theatre (also known as The Firesigns)[1][2] were an American surreal comedy group who first performed live on Los Angeles radio station KPFK during the mid-1960s. They produced thirteen record albums and a 45 rpm single under contract to Columbia Records from 1968 through 1976, and had several nationally syndicated radio programs during that period, the most famous of which was Dear Friends. They also appeared in front of live audiences, and continued to write, perform, and record on other labels through 2012, occasionally taking sabbaticals during which they wrote or performed solo or in smaller groups. Firesign Theatre material was conceived, written, and performed by its members Phil Austin, Peter Bergman, David Ossman, and Philip Proctor. The group's name stems from astrology, because all four were born under the three "fire signs": Aries (Austin), Leo (Proctor), and Sagittarius (Bergman and Ossman). They acquired an enthusiastic following in the late 1960s and early 1970s. In 1997, Entertainment Weekly ranked the Firesign Theatre among the "Thirty Greatest Comedy Acts of All Time". In 2005, the US Library of Congress added one of the group's most popular early albums, the 1970 Don't Crush That Dwarf, Hand Me the Pliers, to the National Recording Registry and called the group "The Beatles of comedy."
