I don't think this is from the early 90's... seems its from the 20th anniversary show, see: http://www.gigposters.com/posters.php?poster=28179

This is my poster ( I posted it)It is the real thing !I got it out of the tattoo parlor on 4th ave. in Olympia the night of the show !It is cream colred.They had 2 differant posters around town.They also handed them out in 2x2 inch version at other shows in town weeks before the show.I am not trying to fool anyone,this is the real deal !!

very striking.
someone should do a Melvins poster using a parody of the cover of MAD No. 1 (comic book)... where the shadow approaches and the lady screams, "That slithering blob, what is it?!" and the kid goes "It's Melvin."

I don't pretend to know Alan Forbes or his situation, but maybe someone contacted him to do a simple B&W flier for this show? He wanted to do it, so he did it. They made photocopies on off-white paper, posted 'em. Somebody got one, scanned it and posted it here. I don't see what the harm in that is...
Of course, I am the eternal optimist, so take what I say with a grain of salt.
Maybe someone "in the know" can comment...
