This reprint poster is signed in pencil by the artist the late great Wes Wilson!

 

The RP-3 printing we have here offers the same popular and iconic art for far less than the elusive First Print currently commands! The FD-3 was an early Wilson & Helms image produced in very low quantities - if this were a first printing signed in this condition it would fetch thousands.

 

This is the first CGC graded SIGNED example of the post-concert third printing to appear in our auction. Wes Wilson's recent passing made international news due to the worldwide appreciation of his artistic output. Check out this article to learn more. Signed posters like this early Family Dog issue will always enjoy a growing level of demand as our hobby continues to mature. A great opportunity! Super clean condition with no nicks cuts tears or pinholes.
