This double sized original Fillmore poster showcases a famous collaboration between Rick Griffin and Alton Kelley created a bill for several weeks of show in the summer of 1968. This month’s line up included powerhouse performances by the Who and the Grateful Dead. This is only the SECOND CGC graded example we have ever offered! In May 2018 a CGC Graded 8.0 example realized $375 in our auction. In any other collectibles market this poster would be worth many multiples of the previously sold 8.0 example. It will be interesting to see what premium the market attaches to this superior 9.0 example now.
