This original Postcard was created to announce the Fillmore appearance of Blues legend Howlin' Wolf. Peter Bailey designed this image. Artist Wes Wilson's tenure as the Fillmore's primary artist for Graham was coming to an end at this point in the series and other artists were starting to work for the irascible promoter. Original Postcards are without a doubt, one of the fastest-growing segments of the marketplace for vintage 1960’s concert poster art. These beautiful postcards display the same iconic art, featuring the same classic bands, are created by the same legendary artists, and are linked to the same moments in history as their far larger posters. Not only are these postcards a tiny fraction of the cost of the posters, but they are also FAR EASIER to store and collect.
