The late great Wes Wilson designed the artwork for this Bill Graham Original Handbill. There were two variants produced before the concert. This is the OHB-B version which includes the small white area in the lower right corner. The Legendary Chicago Blues master Muddy Waters was the headliner at this November '66 Fillmore run. The Chess records mainstay was responsible for bringing American roots music to rock star status. Many of the musicians of the era were devotees of the Blues and were heavily influenced by this American treasure.
