This powerful poster for a cancelled Howlin’ Wolf show at the Avalon features another classic Mouse/Kelley design. The FD-27 issue was only printed before the concerts (there are no reprints) which makes this poster especially desirable and valuable. The shows themselves were cancelled but this classic image has remained a popular and important collectible in the series. A Top Quality CGC 9.8 graded example brought $6612 at auction in April 2017. This lot exhibits a great opportunity to add this issue to your collection without breaking the bank!
