This Fillmore poster created by the late great Wes Wilson was his second to last for Bill Graham. After BG-62 Wilson ended his tenure as the exclusive artist for the Fillmore. He would return for after a year and a half absence to contribute 2 more posters. By that time his style had changed dramatically. Here the artist employs a combination of abstract design and strong color to promote a 1968 Santana concert. 

 

Santana is a Rock and Roll Hall of Famer that still packs crowds into concerts today. This underscores the desirability and appeal of this issue!

 

This is the finest quality CGC graded example we have ever auctioned!
