Original First Printings of this poster in the condition offered here can bring thousands of dollars. This second printing released shortly after the show but still over 50 years ago represents a more affordable way to acquire this fantastic and world famous work of art.

 

THERE IS NO BIGGER NAME IN THE ART AND COLLECTIBLES WORLD THAN ANDY WARHOL. Period. It’s indisputable and will in the long run be the overriding fact that determines the desirability of this image. The BG-8 also features one of the most exciting lineups ever to appear at the Fillmore! How do you top Warhol Zappa and Lou Reed? This example is in museum quality condition and looks simply amazing. Second printing or not pieces that meet the super strict CGC grading standards of 9.4 or higher are a TINY fraction of surviving examples and are ridiculously under appreciated at today's market levels.
