This Fillmore/Winterland poster announced the first Bill Graham appearance of the late great Rock n Roll innovator Chuck Berry.   This 1967 Fillmore/Winterland run of concerts also had the Grateful Dead in support. This poster features the archetypal image of “Woman with Snake”. This is another example of Wes Wilson using his favorite model at the time—his wife.

The King is Dead Long Live The King! This breathtaking poster is just the second to appear at public auction with CGC grading. A 9.8 example brought $525 on 2/17 before the tragic news of Berry’s passing shook the world. We have received dozens of calls in the past few weeks requesting Berry posters this lot is sure to enjoy tremendous attention and bidding competition.
