“The Sound” was Bill Graham’s own description of what was going on both musically and socially in San Francisco in October of 1966. Artist Wes Wilson used Bill's words as the inspiration for this classic Fillmore poster.  


This over-sized poster is a perfect example of Wilson's art at the time. It is widely considered to be one of the finest Fillmore designs ever issued and totally encompasses “The Scene” at the time. Highly sought after at all times we are pleased to offer the very FIRST CGC graded example to appear at public auction.
