Blues Legend Big Mama Thornton took the stage at the Fillmore in October 1966. The headliner was actually The Butterfield Blues Band, but Big Mama provided the central image for this oversized Wes Wilson creation. It should be noted that this was Grace Slick's first live performance with the Jefferson Airplane!
Thin paper, large size, and metallic ink make this poster very difficult to find in top condition. This lot is a “bargain hunter’s delight”. It's one of those early BG issues that seldom appear at auction, and this is a great opportunity for collectors to jump on one!
