This First Printing Poster is signed by the artist David Singer! 

 

This poster has also been authenticated on the reverse by the Godfather of 1960s Psychedelic Concert Posters, Eric King! The lightly penciled inscription on the reverse of the poster represents what concert poster authentication looked like prior to CGCs authentication of these items (See photo).

 

This first-printing poster for a February 1970 Grateful Dead run of shows at the Fillmore is one of the most requested Grateful Dead posters from the series. Singer himself noted the collage had a ... certain LSD mystique. BG-216 was the artist's second of four posters Singer created for the Grateful Dead. David Singer created more poster designs during Bill Graham's heyday than any other Fillmore artist.
