Sourced at the human gate 2026-08-12 from classicposters.com, which the run could not reach headless. Added to break a five-day BG-133 repeat: the week was showing one poster as hero on 5 of 7 days while real, distinct posters for these nights existed and went unused. The 2026-08-10 run report itself flagged BG-78 and FD-76 as 'candidate anchors' for 1967 and then did not take them. FD-76 (Jack Hatfield, who made very few posters) covers Avalon Aug 17-20 1967. Per classicposters FD-76.
