6 Reasons this incredible piece of San Francisco counter culture history blows our mind:
1)This poster was created in June, 1966, and is just the 10th issue in the Bill Graham Fillmore series.
2) The early Bill Graham posters are amongst the most sought after concert posters ever created and are easily the most demanded and collected series by collectors.
2) This poster features Jefferson Airplane, the quintessential San Francisco band at that time.
3) This poster is acknowledged by art historians as being a superb example of the lettering made famous by the legendary artist, Wes Wilson, a member of "The Big Five".
4) Also on the bill was The Great Society led by the beautiful and talented Grace Slick that would later join Jefferson Airplane!
5) This poster has been preserved in absolute flawless, Museum Quality condition. None..ZERO... have been graded higher. Viewing it in person is truly breathtaking as it as bright and fresh as the very day it was created almost 60 years ago!
6) The early Fillmore posters are ridculously affordable at today's price levels, literally trading at just PENNIES on the dollar compared to collectibles in other fieds of comparable rarity, desirability, and historical importance.
But there is a major catch for collectors that are seeking the" best of the best" in vintage concert posters. While it may be relatively easy to indentify that a collectible is undervalued, the actual opportunity to take advantage of this knowledge can be difficult to come by.
In additon to having been independently graded and authenticated by CGC, this specimen has also been authenticated on the reverse by reknowned concert poster expert and historian, Eric King!
