This highly sought after masterpiece by artist Lee Conklin is one of the most requested and well-known posters in the Fillmore series. This stunning black and white illustration exemplifies the artists’ style of hidden and flowing images. The art was so powerful that Santana had the piece reworked for their first album cover. This image is one of the most used examples of 1960’s art in volumes chronicling the genre.
This lot features professional restoration of an Original First Printing that delivers superb eye appeal without having to pay the many thousands of dollars that the exact same poster would bring unrestored!
