This poster is signed in silver colored ink by the artist the late great Wes Wilson! Signature Series posters are signed in the presence of an authorized CGC witness. The special gold holder provides instant recognition of this item's special status!

 

This is the FIRST CGC SIGNATURE SERIES Example of this issue to appear in our auction! A Bill Graham title we don't see surface often enough in TOP CONDITION like this one here. For this weekend at the Fillmore The Mothers of Invention were hired to play in support of the Chicago Blues man the late great Otis Rush. 

 

The imagery on this poster is a great example Wilson’s art at the time. The artist used the split fountain printing technique for the background. This particular issue is under appreciated and undervalued at current market levels. Best of all this example is SIGNED and in fresh museum quality condition like it was produced yesterday! Read our blog dated 1/20/18 where we discuss the skyrocketing demand for signed material such as this lot.
