Early Fillmore posters are among the most desirable concert posters ever issued and this piece is sure to enjoy spirited bidding from collectors! Truly SPECTACULAR in every way! In August 2018 a lower graded 9.4 example reached $1150 in our auction.
 
Since the inception of PAE over 13 years ago we have consistently advised collectors to focus on the first 30 issues of the Bill Graham series. History has proved our advise was correct then and we are sticking with it now. These early issues from the first year of the Fillmore Auditorium enjoy tremendous collector demand for the tiny and dwindling supply of high quality examples. In fact the coveted 9.6 CGC grade on this lot is tied for the highest quality of this issue to ever appear in our auction. As an added bonus this poster has been authenticated on the reverse by the Godfather of 1960’s Psychedelic Concert Posters Eric King! We believe these early issues represent amazing values at current price levels.
