When discussing the BG-8 created by the late great Wes Wilson, consider we have only handled this super rare, first-printing poster a half-dozen times or so over the past decade.

 

Very few BG-8 posters were originally printed - well under 1,000 editions. Any BG-8s that exist are buried in long-term collections. Consequentially, we always have a mile-long list of collectors eager to acquire this amazing poster.

 

The cherished BG-8 also features one of the most exciting lineups ever to appear at the Fillmore! How do you top Warhol, Zappa and Lou Reed?
