Led Zeppelin Experience

Our Led Zeppelin Experience

'Livin' on the Fringes' - Our Led Zeppelin Experience Hippo got the call...  Our art work had been approved for T-shirts for the "Day on the Green," or as we called it D.O.G. day, to be held at the Oakland Coliseum and produced by Bill Graham Presents.
