Laying down a heavy burden is a good thing.

Godspeed Pappa Kelley. To all you that are out there giving your love and support. Us the family greatly appreciate it. We lost a wonderful and unique man today. He touches people all the time who don't even know his name. He was a true pioneer of an era that changed the world forever. Please treat his name and work with respect and love.all of you who have pictures of his art please post it. That fungo mungo is a true gem. There were very few of those made for such a small local band. Same with that dinosaurs. That was a great group of artists and musicians. Thank you so much to all of you. His daughter China

Alton Kelley, Stanley Mouse and Rick Griffin made a big impression on me when I was young.


I will contribute some images from what I can find online.

This was his poster for the Joint Show, with Rick Griffin, Stanley Mouse, Wes Wilson and Victor Moscoso.


Here is a nice collection of Stanley Mouse & Alton Kelly collaborations:

This photo (by Paul Grushkin) captured a pretty special moment in my poster making career. Rest in peace Mr. Kelley.
