This poster has been signed in black ink by the artist Wes Wilson!
The BG-10 is a classic early Wes Wilson design and the bulging lettering is yet another innovation by this legendary artist of early Fillmore issues. This is an amazing example of this very early popular and historically important poster! It's also important to note that this is the FIRST TIME we've handled a SIGNED CGC example higher than a 7.5 grade! As a matter of fact with a 9.4 museum grade it's tied for the FINEST we've offered... and the previous example was not signed! This piece has it all: great art legendary band an early date museum quality condition third party CGC grading and authentication and SIGNED by the artist! Read our blog dated 1/20/18 where we discuss the skyrocketing demand for signed material such as this lot.
Since the inception of PAE 10 years ago we have consistently advised collectors to focus on the first 30 issues of the Bill Graham series. History has proved our advise was correct then and we are sticking with it now. These early issues from the first year of the Fillmore Auditorium enjoy tremendous collector demand for the tiny and dwindling supply of high quality examples. We believe they represent amazing values at current price levels.
