This first printing poster is signed in ink by the artist the late great Wes Wilson!
Only the 4th CGC Graded example of the BG-26 OP-1 FIRST PRINTING poster we've ever auctioned! This Jefferson Airplane & Grateful Dead issue is a favorite among collectors and can be extremely difficult to find.
The BG-26 is also another creative leap forward for the work of the late great Wes Wilson. This image represents the first time that the artist would incorporate a nude figure into his Fillmore poster art. This would be a reoccurring theme in Wilson's work for the remainder of the time he was enlisted by Bill Graham.
Wes Wilson's recent passing made international news due to the worldwide appreciation of his artistic output. Posters SIGNED by the artist like this early Bill Graham issue will always enjoy a growing level of demand as our hobby continues to mature.
