The BG-60 is an original Wes Wilson poster for a Big Brother and Howlin' Wolf run of shows at the Fillmore in 1967. It is oversized and powerful in design. The artist gave the legendary Bluesman a superfluous "g" at the end of Howlin, this speaks to how quickly the production of these posters was pushed on the artists by the promoter, apparently no time for fact-finding!
